    Lol true. I think Tyson has the most bios and documentaries of any athlete, ever, besides maybe Ali. With Tyson, we pretty much know EVERYTHING about the man, and what he did, and what happened.

    With Ali, I actually do find out some new stuff here and there in certain documentaries/bios, and interviews. But yeah, they really need to chill on making a new special on both of those guys. It's been told over and over and over and over.

        I like Tyson, but I think he does get too much exposure. I mean it's not even a good comeback or redemption story, it's not like he recaptured the HW title. I thought after the Holyfield ear incident he'd be forgotten, but it made him even more famous /infamous which is ****** when you think about it. What about Foreman? That's some good movie material about someone being on top, brought down and then rising up again. WTF did Tyson do that is inspirational?
        It's more about where he came from, and the obstacles in his life, and how unlikely a kid that was robbing drug dealers, and committing crimes left and right, met someone that could instill in him mega discipline, and become a world champ, and makes hundreds of millions, more than what he did after he lost.

        Basically, he was never supposed to be a winner. He was supposed to be dead, or in jail for life by the age of 18 or 20, how his life was going.

            Tyson was a kid from the gutter who was going nowhere and 999x outta 1000 those kids go nowhere. He reached heights unseen in the world outside of sports that only a handful of others have reached. That right there is worthy of attention.
