Before Dale Hausner became known as one-half of the “Serial Shooters” who terrorized Phoenix with a deadly summer-long killing spree, he did something almost unthinkable — he sat across from Mike Tyson with a microphone in hand and asked him about boxing. In this episode, Amy Kaplan unpacks the disturbing true story of how a serial killer posed as a sports journalist to get close to one of the most iconic fighters in history. Just days after their eerie encounter, Tyson’s gym was surrounded by SWAT, and the former champ was shown a photo of the man he’d unknowingly welcomed into his inner circle. Who was Dale Hausner before the headlines—and how did he end up face-to-face with Iron Mike?  This is Shadowboxing. Where fight culture meets true crime.
