    We are just in the process of putting together the new Mike Tyson DVD and here's a sneak preview of the cover. I wanted to portray him in lighthearted mood for this one rather than go with the usual imagery.

    Feedback is welcomed. I also would be interested to know what special features you might like. I am also undecided on the title, but I have a few more days yet before I submit it to the distributors.

    The DVD will be released in all high street and online retailers in October or September.

    We have interviews about Mike with Tim Witherspoon, Tony Tucker, Errol Christie, Robin Reid, Steve Bunce, Jane Couch, Spencer Fearon and Wayne Alexander. Also a session in the ring with Joe Egan.

    I'm not sure that we will have time to do a Cribs film but from what I've seen in the rough edit it looks great. It was also filmed using HD cameras so hopefully we can do a blu-ray if the first batch sells well.

    It is definitely an 18 - there is stuff on there that would give Mary Whitehouse a stroke (if she wasn't already dead).

    I would llove to do a blu-ray but I don't think it will happen yet unfortunately. We are trying to work out a special collector's edition though with something attached.

    Looks great Longcount, go with the cover you have. Not what people would expect and therefore looks fresh

    Looks really good mate, I'll defo be getting a copy.

    I like the relaxed image for the cover, I think that's more what his personality is about nowadays.

    Just on that though, and the title... I seem to remember a recent quote of his saying something along the lines of: 'there's Mike and there's Tyson. Tyson was the bad man, but these days I'm Mike', something like that. Maybe the title could refer to him as Mike Tyson somehow. 'An Evening With Mike Tyson' or something like that.

    Just a thought, don't want to complicate things.

    Looks good mate, looking forward to seeing it!
