Tyson Trailer HD - Plot synopsis: TYSON is a raw four-part documentary that peels back the curtain on Mike Tyson’s explosive life, from a brutal Brooklyn childhood and a meteoric rise to heavyweight glory to the addiction, jail time, public breakdowns, and infamous ear bite that almost ended it all. Told unfiltered in Tyson’s own words, with never-before-seen material and rare access to his family, friends, and foes, it’s an intimate portrait of greatness, collapse, and a man still confronting the cost of his legacy.

00:00I lived like a rat in the street all my life.
00:02And the next thing you know, I'm the biggest shit in the world.
00:10All my life, I've been thinking in terms of developing a fighter who is perfect.
00:17Can you imagine being the ice who drop out 20 years old and you're the champ of the world?
00:23Truly a tried and tested gladiator.

00:27He felt he was immortal.
00:28He felt he was a god.

00:44Mike was beautiful in the same way a train wreck is beautiful.

01:16Addicted to chaos.

01:26The liberation.
01:28The liberation.
01:29The screw to me.
01:30Why did I put myself through this bullshit?
01:35I don't know.
01:36But that is the American story, right?
01:40People love to see you get knocked down and come back.
01:43The more he got sober, the more ashamed, the more embarrassment he had about some of the
01:48things he did.
01:49I think he's just so broken from his past, but inside there's a broken guy just trying
01:55to be a good father.
01:56It's hard to navigate your true self when you really don't know who the fuck you are.
02:02Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
