Multiple outlets report that Mike Tyson makes an on-air remark that surprises viewers during the 2024 ESPY Awards. The incident occurs in New York on Wednesday night after Tyson, a former heavyweight boxing champion, presents an award for “Best Single-Game Performance.” As cameras and audio capture his remarks, Tyson mistakenly refers to baseball star Shohei Ohtani using language suggesting Ohtani is a woman. The moment is described as awkward and becomes a topic of online discussion among viewers. Reports frame it as a mix-up during the presentation segment rather than a planned statement, and note that Ohtani is widely recognized as a male athlete. The coverage emphasizes the hot-mic nature of the exchange—meaning the comment is picked up by microphones—rather than providing details about any response from Ohtani or the event organizers.
