      i think jamie fox could do a really good job with tyson. and a tyson movie i have always thought to be a good idea. if you back away from it all- mike tyson is possibly one of the most tragic stories in sports history as far as how high he ascended and then how utterly far he fell in the eyes of the public. i'm sure there is a lot of personal reflection that mike has to offer on the whole ordeal that would make for a quality drama. mike tyson's personal life is almost a complete antithesis of muhammad ali- and ever since the Ali movie i've been thinking about how there needs to be a tyson movie. because the tyson movie would be so much more somber and the ending would be nothing short of depressing as long as they write it/shoot the movie right.

            Muhammad Ali looked like had a damn lightweight physique, I have no idea how that guy made Heavyweight he looked 175 to me. Will Smith training to be a small Heavyweight like Ali is a HUGE difference than Foxx training to be one of the most muscular Heavyweights ever.

              i just wish it was someone other than Jamie Foxx, maybe an up-and-comer that no one knows about.. Jamie Foxx is a comedian, just like Will Smith was when he played in Ali, it doesn't fit right and i wish they wouldn't think like "Big Names=Sales" first when making movies. You can say that with the majority of movies out today.

              Plus, i agree that there is no nutritionist on EARTH that can make Jamie Foxx look like Mike Tyson.

                People playing themselves as a focus of a movie doesn't work unless it's a complete hagiography. Most celebrities cannot even write their own autobiography without a ghost writer and even then it's usually a fluff piece.

                  Jordan and Pierce...and it makes me sick that you never heard 300 bars and runnin'. Game is a great rapper...you ears are closed with hate.

                    nah, he can't be great when he's been rapping like 2 years or less when people have been perfecting their craft for like 10 years or even like 30 years.
