interesting movie, any tyson fans or haters should check it out. mike tyson is a producer on it so it may be sorta one sided but he goes over everything. if only someone could have controled him.

it was a good documentary. gives his insight on a lot of the decisions he's made in his life.
lol it took a little adjusting to understand him, i've never heard him say more than a few sentences at a time haha

overall it was a pretty good, boxing fans should definitely check it out.

I really believe that the death of Cus D'Amato was the worst thing that ever happened to Tyson (not that it was very good for D'Amato lol). I think he was one person who could have helped Mike stay straight.
(...didn't watch the show, so I don't know if they covered Cus much in it...)

yeah he talked a lot about Cus and how the death effected him. his fights were fueled by anger after that, which i think is why he fought so well. movies don't usually effect me emotionally but near the end they showed his last fight when he was getting pummeled and his surrender. it was horrible listening to the great Iron Mike admit he doesn't have the ability anymore:cry:

I got the torrent of this, nice documentary. Tyson's mind is pretty absurd.

he never said he doesn't have the ability, it's his heart wasn't in it. he only took the fights cause of the pay check.

i just torrented tyson on HD the file was 4.4 gigs.

Now my problem is,

It came in 2 separate files, a video file that is Russian language, and a separate English file, now is there anyway I can watch the video simultaneous with the English audio file? Other than playing two files at the same time?

Reason being is I am at work, so I'll have to pause quite a bit, if there isn't a way i'll just watch it at home sometime.

BTW I'm on a macbook and using VLC as my media player.

Thanks.

The best part was when Tyson was stuttering to mutter:

" tha.. tha.. th.. th.. th.. *pause* tha.. tha .. th ..tha .. th .. *sigh* th.. tha.. thats when they knew not to fuck with me because i'd fucking kill them"

he was stuttering because he was fighting back tears, not because he didn't have the mental capacity to spit out a sentence.

tyson was on jimmy kimmel last night and he said that a movie may be made based on his life. jamie foxx was the actor he wanted to play him, and they had talked about it.

i would love to see fight again, he was what 215-230 in his prime he's probably 250-260 now. he'd have some work to do to trim down abit. of course he'd need to really want to fight.

Tyson couldn't fight now. He's over 40 and his real prime was probably over 20 years ago. I'm a huge Tyson fan, but I don't think I'd want to see him fight. He probably should've quit after he lost to Lennox Lewis if he didn't need the money so badly. He already destroyed what dignity he had left when he did that Vegas sideshow. A Tyson movie however, I would love to see.

i'll try and explain what i was thinking, tyson is fat now. i'd like to see him get in shape and maybe have a sparring fight with someone say... lennox. basically i think he's so out of shape, he could probably make a tv show about how he get's in to shape.

i can't get enough of iron mike, when ever his old fights are on i always watch.

yeah, but even when he did his sparring demos in Vegas he was trimmed back down to his fighting weight at 215, and still was (obviously) a shadow of his former self.

I'll have to catch this one. I watched one a week ago but it was from 1995. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114759/

Might want to add about 50 lbs to that estimate.

that makes me sad, i never thought he could look like that. i'm not 100% sure but holyfield is still in great shape. i was going to say 300lbs but i thought that would be a little much
