Pacquiao vs Rios - Mike Tyson Interview Video and Transcript - Mike Tyson was interviewed by HBO’s Jim Lampley on the upcoming Pacquiao fight. Here’s a video and transcript of their talk on what seems to be a Las Vegas location (it’s either a hotel or Tyson’s residence):

Jim Lampley: Do you see Manny, do you see a guy who is pushing the limit on how far he can go with boxing?

Mike Tyson: No, I think Manny Pacquiao has still a couple of years, still in him. No, because he took a sensational lost. So psychologically, if he has been beaten up by Marquez, then we have a problem. But if he took it as just another bad day at the office, then he can still make a lot in boxing.

Jim Lampley: He’s getting ready to take on Brandon Rios. Probably the most direct, hard charging coming forward in the sport. Is that an easy fight for Pacquiao to win because he has so much game, and Rios has only knows one thing to do?

Mike Tyson: It depends on the psychological condition of Pacquiao. Rios is just… Pacquiao when has on top of his game, he had so much movement, so much lateral movement. And a guy like this (Rios) is normally made for Pacquiao. We don’t know. Rios has a lot of spirit, and he comes across as a warrior when he fights. It’s going to be an exciting fight. Truly exciting.
