I don't think this was a good film. I think it should have been more chronological in the presentation of the fight footage and there was too much time devoted to things that have been covered ad naseum by the media like the bite fight and the rape case.

true.

I agree that it is a great movie. I also feel its fair to present Mike as a victim as that is the way he sees himself. He was a victim of poverty as a youngster a victim of promotors and managers as an adult. and Hangers on ever since.

Great Film and no cheap filmmaking tricks from the director. Strictly from Mike's point of view. His life is indeed a Greek Tragedy. What an authentic and brutally honest individual!!

The film is brilliant. Go see it at the cinema if you can cos its amazing seeing the young Tyson on the big screen. He is crazy fast
