"Tyson" Opens 4/24. . .Thoughts? - Blu-ray Forum

I just came across this trailer for the new movie about Mike Tyson.

http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1810024401/video/12619252

What do y'all think about this? I just can't take him seriously ever since he bit Holyfield. Seems like a poor attempt at getting back into the spotlight.

I don't care what anyone says, Iron Mike was serious back in the days! I just don't know about this movie though!

Nothing was better than watching Tyson pummel everyone On Demand growing up as a kid

There was an HBO movie called Tyson that was awesome. It really made me feel sorry for what happened to him. He really got screwed over by Don King. It was really messed up with what happened to him. I wish they had that movie on DVD or Blu-ray

once Cus D'amato died, it was all downhill for Mike. He was the only guy who really looked out for his best interests. I dont care how hard he fell off after the Buster Douglas fiasco....in his prime, Mike was an unstoppable animal from another planet. I used to wonder what it felt like to get punched in the face as hard as possible by Mike f'n Tyson. I'm shocked he never killed anybody in the ring, on some Ivan Drago shit

I'd watch a Tyson movie for sure. He was total domination back in the day. Nothing like people paying money for the pay per view fight only to have it end in about 10 seconds which was more the norm than not with him!
