SNOOP DOGG announced that he has set up a boxing league following his dramatic hosting and commentary of Mike Tyson’s big comeback fight.
The rap legend was hailed for his own performance as Tyson, 54, drew his exhibition scrap against Roy Jones Jr, 51.

The Fight Club will feature celebrities, influencers and athletes scrapping on shows throughout the year.
Tyson himself could be featuring in another soon – he confirmed he will continue to fight on after enjoying his big night back under the lights.
And with a music genius making it a real party, who wouldn’t want to join Iron Mike on the bill?
Here, SunSport checks out five celebrity battles that could headline Snoop’s shows.
Mike Tyson vs Evander Holyfield
Many thought this would mark Tyson’s big comeback – completing his trilogy against 58-year-old Holyfield.
But a deal couldn’t be struck, with Tyson recently claiming fault was wholly on The Real Deal’s side.
Holyfield triumphed in both their professional fights, could he be stirred into the prospect of win number three?

Conor McGregor vs Jake Paul
YouTuber Paul called out the Notorious after brutally knocking out ex-NBA ace Nate Robinson in Los Angeles on Saturday
And the Problem Child – who has won both of his fights inside the squared circle – has also set his sights on fights with KSI and Dillon Danis.
But the 23-year-old American is desperate to pit his wits against McGregor, 32, who returns to the octagon in January to face Dustin Poirier in a rematch.

Colby Covington vs LeBron James
UFC star Colby Covington has called out basketball legend LeBron James and vowed to ‘make him eat canvas’.
The outspoken Donald Trump supporter is determined to continue his long-running feud with James.
Covington, 32, has previously labelled the NBA star a ‘spineless coward’ in a row over the Black Lives Matter movement.
James, 35, protested against the shooting of Jacob Blake in Wisconsin and the murder of George Floyd by boycotting the play-offs.

Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather
Paul really is targetting some of sport’s biggest legends isn’t he?
As well as McGregor, the social media star has also called out undefeated boxer and one of the best ever Mayweather, 43.
The 25-year-old claimed Floyd Mayweather hasn’t signed a fight contract yet because the boxing legend cannot spell in his own name in a cringeworthy video.

Justin Bieber vs Tom Cruise
Things took a VERY weird turn last year when pop badboy Bieber, 25, called out the 56-year-old Mission Impossible actor and demanded they face off in the Octagon.
But that apparent rivalry could be seized up by Snoop Dogg to get the pair into a boxing ring.
