    Best book on Mike Tyson ?

    Just finished reading a few boxing autobiography ( Nigel Benn, Frank Bruno, Michael Watson), and was looking to read a book on Mike Tyson.

    Which would you fellas say is the best book on Tyson? I was thinking of 'Scream: The Real Mike Tyosn'.


    Cheers.

    I'd say it was Fire and Fury by Jose Torres. It went much further into Tyson's real life because of how close Torres was to him. It was full of so much candor that it cost Torres his relationship with Tyson.

      The Last Great Fight by Joe Layden

      It's about the biggest upset in the history of sports. Mike Tyson vs. Buster Douglas. The book is how one fight changed the lives of both boxers forever.

      It was a really good book. Very vivid, informative, exciting and detailed. If you know anything about the background of Tyson, then the first couple parts might bore you. But continue reading, because it's a really good book. And i read a lot of books.

          You should look at a book called "The Inner Ring" it written by Tyson's limo driver, who talks about how he was getting screwed over by everyone from Robin Givens, to Don King, and even Donald Trump who was ****ing Robin Givens. /i would recommend this book for a non stop read.
