    Anyone else sick of tyson bios, documentaries etc?

    How much can people profit of one mans life? MY god, his story is told year after year as something original.

    You'll have sit down interviews with reporters in AWW while interviewing him.

    Its like, have you been in a cave your whole liefe? He has an interesting life, but man.

    I think when i'm like 75 we will still be seeing 'Mike tyson" specials.

    SO many intersting boxers of the past that get nothing...

    Haha I know what you mean. But it's probably partly because I know most of his story already, but I guess there are people out there who aren't big boxing fans that don't. Also to me, his one man show did such a good job of telling the story of his life I'm not sure I really need to see a new biopic or whatever...

        Tyson's a media whore himself who loves this attention and needs it as he doesn't have many sources of income. Great point about all the great fighters who deserve this kind of attention over this prick.

          I mean, I know people that don'f follow boxing at all and Mike Tyson is the only boxer they know anything about. You could be a baseball fanatic and see 30 for 30 commercials all day long about mike tysons story.

          He gets an unbelievable amount of exposure.

          It's kinda why you hear stuff like--"mike tyson would KO any heavyweight in 1 round" type stuff

                  I like how no one cares Tyson is a convicted rapist. Guys got his own cartoon, video games, movies, documentaries, he's just ****ing living the high life. But these days you slap a ***** a few times and they try to take everything from you

                    I agree, that tidbit about how at one point in his life he was a dangerous sexual predator seems to be ignored.

                    He's admitted in interviews there was a period in his life where he should never have been allowed around women.
