The most ferocious boxer to ever step inside the ring, Mike Tyson was at age 20 the youngest heavyweight champion in history. But within a few short years, the baddest man on the planet was himself on the ropes, the victim of his own rage and fear. Told exclusively through the compelling words and commentary of Iron Mike himself, TYSON is a powerfully frank and provocative look at one of the most controversial and misunderstood sports figures of all time.
"A documentary with no pretense of objectivity. Here is Mike Tyson's story in his own words, and it is surprisingly persuasive." -- Roger Ebert, CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
