  5. mike tyson was a victim of don king.a circus sideshow act that we all watched imploding before our eyes.someone ought to do a documentary on the millions that king stole from tyson.

  6. I think this is well done documentary with great story. It tells many stories about our society. Tyson has more brain power than most US citizens. Dont let his “stupid” way of talking fool you.

  7. The Doc shows the Rise and Fall. Just like in life we see the Good and the Bad. The Doc shows how we loved him.
    How we treated him with love and those who hated him hatched plots to Destroy him….especially DK…who uses and exploits people like animals. It is sad people like DK have the Money and Power to exploit potential of people and destroy the careers of people.
    Mike Tyson loved Boxing with his true Heart… he followed his passion…he acheived his Aspirations 1-by-1….he followed his way of Life ..which very few people do. It was unfortunate he never acheived a Long Tangible Happy life as something or the other brought him down…I hope people understand that.
    Mike has been a Reason for most people watching Boxing in his times ..just like millions across the world… nowadays we hardly watch any matches..as “Iron Mike” as righteously titled is not there in the ring.

  8. The man is a legend. He was brought up on hate and violence, violence and intimidation is how he survived, you put the kid in a ring and tell him he’s the best in the world..how do u expect him to react? He didnt know how to act cos he was never shown..simple as. Not his fault..he’s just a prodcut of his environment

  11. julien boucher you are gay jealous madafucker , im scheure at school bitches use to kick your ass fucking homo

  13. Dear Mike Tyson,

    Hey bredda’, it’s me, Robert Michael Crofoot, GOD, lol. Listen, I was just writing this review to say some things man….for one, all is good always man, including Iron Mike buddy, always, even though people give some people bad raps or whatever sometimes. It is a joy to see you train on film man, you are extremely dedicated to your training and it shows Sir. I know you work hard at being good man, it’s just a rough business in the fight business, as you know. Fighting for money is just crazy man…..it’s just kind of crazy in the first place. It can be rough on my good people, but they come shining through it like champs, always. Many good fighters have already man…..Rocky Marciano, Ali, Sugar Ray, several man. I just wish it wasn’t so violent sometimes. Your “motive” has to be good to succeed in the boxing business. If you are in it because you love it, then you will succeed….but if you are in it for some sort of “proof-show”, then you usually lose, lol. Pro boxing cheers a lot of the kids up out here, which is good. Listen, we may have had our differences, but you know I always love you man, it can’t change. You are a good man bro, always. You are a great fighter, and many people look up to you for that. Just don’t show em how to be too tough okay? They can’t handle it. Like in the movie “Contact”……….small steps. Defense is a sensitive subject, so don’t teach anyone who isn’t ready to know it yet. You are blessed with true heart in the ring man, you have a lot of things going for you. Just don’t get caught up in the whole “I gotta prove how tough I am” thing. Trust me, everyone and everything is super-tough, always. Plenty of people know that you are one of the toughest. You a meanie on the outside, but a softie on the inside, lol. Keep em guessing huh. A lot of dumb things go down in my hood man, but don’t worry about it okay? It’s just another day in the jungle man, as usual. We all wild, but we all good and trustworthy too, always. I trust all with my life always bud, that’s how good all my people are and that’s how good all is always. I just hope you and my other homies understand that I have to get mean sometimes……….that’s my job. I was telling someone the other day about how stubborn my people are, which seems bad, but it actually works out to be a very good thing, because once my people decide to “Count to ten”, they are sooo stubborn, that they won’t ever turn back baby, not ever. My people just mean like that. Stiff-necked, just like it says in my good book Sir. It’s not just people of color, it’s everyone, and we are all just one race anyway, always. But…..special things for special people….like Bentleys for Rappers and super-bodies for my bredda’s. Think of it, tigers have special things specific to them, and grasshoppers have their special things too. So, it all works out in the end. Your training is immense bud. Hilarious. Do me a favor….learn the lesson of “Love your opponent”. Even though you can defeat yout opponent easily, go easy on them, because you love them. Pull some punches sometimes. To see this technique of love your opponent in action, study Master Chuck Norris. I saw Chuck use it once…..he could have slapped the heck out of some one once, but he took it real easy on them instead. Also, just one more thing my man, remember Conan the barbarian….he was a Master warrior, yet he also was a musician and a poet on the inside. Perfect balance bud, always. Stay good, and thanks for sharing this valuable information of some of your training technique(s) with us, we appreciate it, and we guard it from those who don’t deserve to know it yet. I love you always bro, and, as always……….”Count to ten, that’s it”!

    This Documentary sheds some light on the gentle side of Iron Mike Tyson, which is good, always. Love always, Robert Michael Crofoot

  14. Let it be known, always, that today……….Mike Tyson, “Iron Mike Tyson”, Graduated from “Count to ten” – Martial Art School, and became a 10th Degree Whitebelt, always, regardless of all always. Dated 05/24/10 – NE. C.S.T. around 6:09:00 P.M.

    Mike’s immense training, and his immense struggle in life, with various things that many in the community deal with, stands as a monument….of how tough all of my people are, and of how tough all is. Now Mike Tyson can fly babe, and he is a Bonified Angel now, for the rest of timespace, and he has his 2 pure white indestructible Angel wings. Amen. Good work Mike! Love always, Robert Michael Crofoot, GOD
