If you haven't seen it, fan or not, check it out. I think it's must see TV, his delivery of some of the stories that chronicle his life is on point. It was pretty engaging and actually left me wanting to hear more, great stuff.
Watched the Mike Tyson one man show "Undisputed Truth" on HBO last night. Wasn't expecting much from it but 'wow' i thought it was insanely good, a very raw look at Tysons life without any sugar coating. He manages to keep you enthralled for 90 minutes and his recreations of 'infamous' events from his life are presented in a funny and disarming way. I have no doubt this show will win television awards and it's also one of the best things that Director Spike Lee has done in a few years. Did anyone else watch this...thoughts?
He is lying about 90 percent of it. Controversy sells. Mike tyson story been heard 1000 times already. they are milking the hell out of it.
I get a feeling Mike is exaggerating and loves the attention he gets from his controversial topics. Whatever brings him money, attention and headlines, I suppose. Wish him nothing but the best.
I watched the first half an hour or so, dealing with his Brownsville origins through his early relationship with Cus, but it was the replay after HBO WCB so it got too late to finish it so the rest is saved on DVR. :good What I saw was good. Mike is always entertaining if nothing else and this candid format, putting the magnifying glass to himself with humor and humility, provides a different look than most usually see or associate with him.
Great show, "Mitch This content is protected Green" bit was the highlight for me... It made me "LOL" & by the end it almost had me Lampley'ing = Full gamut. Atlas Story also great. :happy for Mike/Spike & HBO. This will win them an Emmy no doubt about it.
It was a great show Very entertaining. Mike amazed me his timing was almost perfect throughout. He told it as it was. He was very lenient on the Desiree Washington "****" debacle. Everyone knows he was railroaded there. Mike sincerity over the tragic loss of his little daughter Exodus was obvious That broke his heart I wish him all the luck in the world & sincerely hope he maintains his success W.T. G Iron Mike
Crap. We already heard his story on many other documentaries. Everyone laughed when he talked about stabbing people.
I saw the doc Tyson from a few yrs ago, pretty good tell all, would you say he reveals more than he revealed in that doc or is it a little more of the same
I don't think he revealed anything we hadn't heard before, but it was put in a theatrical form which made it more entertaining. Personally I think this will be spun into another "episode" so to speak, because there was a lot that's been chronicled in his life that was'nt revealed in this particular show.
atsch I think he is in a better place and telling the truth more now than in the past. Remarkable show. Go MIKE:smoke :happy:hat
