In the episode "[[The Homer They Fall]]" he was in jail for pushing his mother, later in the episode he almost killed [[Homer Simpson]] in a boxing match for the title.

==Biography==
 
'''Drederick Tatum''' (voiced by [[Hank Azaria]]) has appeared in several episodes, most notably as Homer’s opponent in “[[The Homer They Fall]].” Tatum, a former [[Olympic Games|Olympic]] [[Gold medal#Olympic Games|Gold medalist]], first became [[List of heavyweight boxing champions|World Heavyweight Champion]] after defeating Watson in the heavily promoted “Bout to Knock the Other Guy Out!” Tatum grew up in Springfield, recalling that “that town was a dump. If you ever see me there again you’ll know I really ([[bleep censor|bleep]]ed)-up bad.” He later served time in prison after pushing his mother down the stairs. Upon his release, he was booked for a match against [[Homer Simpson]], a small-time boxer who had never been knocked out. He was managed during this time by [[List of one-time characters from The Simpsons#Lucius Sweet|Lucius Sweet]], a vicious boxing promoter (and parody of Don King). Tatum’s criminal record has been referred to several times.
 
Tatum is an obvious parody of [[Mike Tyson]], right down to his criminal record and high-pitched, lisping voice.
