Mike Tyson Teaches President Bush How To Speak In Kimmel’s King’s Speech Parody

On Jimmy Kimmel‘s post-Oscars special, the comic host unveiled a spoof trailer for a movie inspired by Oscar winner The King’s Speech and adapted for America as Tyler Perry’s The President Speech. In it, former boxing champion Mike Tyson trades in the gloves and a paintbrush (see clip) in order to humorously give former President George W. Bush elocution lessons.

Sir Michael Tyson (as he is referred to in the trailer) is told, “Mr. Tyson, your country needs you” and from there, “when the people needed a leader – one stupendously loquacious man – helped him find his voice.” Tyson declares Bush to be the “worst student in the history of speech” as various clips of the real Bush mispronouncing words are shown. Predictable? Yes, but still very funny.
