Former world heavyweight champ Mike Tyson will take flight on Animal Planet with a new sport – pigeon racing. The network is set to roll out a new reality show that will pit Tyson, a novice pigeon racer, against serious competitors.

The winged creatures and the boxing champ will share some screentime in ‘Taking on Tyson’ (premieres Sun., March 6, 10PM ET on Animal Planet).
