11/14: Mike Tyson was a tour de force of the 80's and 90's boxing scene.

His rise was spectacularly meteoric, and so was his fall, thanks to his ever-idiotic behavior that continues to baffle people to this day.

A little telefilm was released on HBO during the mid 90's called Tyson, chronicling his life. I'm wondering: what's the significance of this decision? Forgive me if I didn't shed a tear after seeing the trials and tribulations of Mike Tyson's life.

The main problem is the lack of analysis and character depth. Truth be told, most of the story was already known, and I had seen most of his fights. Hence, it's nothing new.

All in all, Tyson is more like Raging Bullshit.
