It's the six-time NBA Most Valuable Player and champion versus the first heavyweight to unify the WBC, WBA, and IBF boxing titles. One scored the most points in NBA history with a graceful sky hook. The other became the youngest heavyweight champion of all time with an unstoppable right hook.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and MIke Tyson: two of the greatest athletes to step foot on the hardwood and canvas who also took their talents to the big screen.

On today's Boxed In, Vincent Goodwill judges the arguments of Andy Behrens and LaJethro Jenkins to settle the debate over who had the better comedy comeo, the Captain as pilot Roger Murdock in 1980's Airplane! or Iron Mike in The Hangover.
