There u go.


No real revalations.

The same old excuses about him trying to justify biting Holyfield. I dont see Holyfield intentionally head butt Tyson in either fight.
The cut wasnt so bad he couldnt see.
He should have just fought on like any good fighter does.

Wish someone had filmed him stomping on Don King. I hope thats true. But with Tyson u can never tell.

It was a good watch. The doc told me nothing new about him, but gave me a better insight to some things. I also liked how he mentioned some of the past all time greats in his doc etc Kid Chocolate, Tony Canzoneri, Henry Armstrong, Micky Walker, and Harry Greb.

Tyson is definitely one of the most eloquent, knowledgeable, and intelligent fighters of all time, if not THE most

You can't take that away from Tyson, at one point in his career Tyson was a true student of the game and was very knowledgeable about boxing. As you can see in the doc, he would seat their and study past fights over and over again. And could study all different type of styles, it also helped as well because Cus had a massive libary of fight tapes.

I liked the part when on the night of his fight with Trevor Berbick he fought with gonorrhea.

they're not excuses. Holyfield was brutally headbutting Tyson deliberately and there is proof.
Mike said something very true when he said something like "That guy's taller than me why the **** is his head constantly in my chest?" and it's true if you watch the fight Holyfield is taller yet constantly his head is beneath Tyson's chin and in his chest because he kept ramming his bald ****in head straight into Tyson. It's quite well known how ruthless Holyfield's head tactics are just look at the Rahman fight.
Also for the Douglas fight they cited proof because they showed the clip of Tyson getting knocked down in sparring before the fight as evidence that he wasn't training much or properly.

great documentary. It came out last year & won a few awards, & is now making the usual circuit on the internet.

i have never heard Tyson so lucid & coherent. he was actually making sense & telling a complex storyline. He was trying to act like a normal person, but the regular old Tyson crept threw the entire movie.

a great watch! i have seen it 2-3 times now....

They showed a replay in the Holyfield vs. Tyson fight and this was the same combo that cut Tyson. However, there was one head-butt that it seemed Tyson caused and Mike got hurt. Maybe he was trying to butt Holyfield back and got ****ed up himself. Nobody butts the Great Holyfield and gets away with it...nobody.

You need to watch Tyson before King got a hold of him.

I disagree.

Holyfield has his head down, chin tucked away. Thats not brutally headbutting. Id like to see a replay showing Holyfield headbutting Tyson. Or a video clip. ANYTHING!
Ive never seen one.
Tyson still had no excuse to bite Holyfield. Real fighters fight through the cuts even with blood streaming into their eyes. The cut Tyson suffered were not a problem. He took the ***** way out.

If you have followed boxing for longer than 6 months you would know all this already.
