Tyson The Movie

[bugs]

Enjoying the documentary but think it highlights two things;
He is not articulate despite praises in that direction, he uses words when he does not know the correct meaning, for example he give fellatio to a woman in a bathroom and decimates a single guy.
He fought in a very weak era of heavyweights, big guys whose main claim to fame was losing to Tyson, had none of them heard of a stiff jab??

i like how he said "brawl-room brawler"....i assume he meant "bar-room brawler"...

hes a bit "eubankish" isnt he? tries to use words that are a little bit above his intellect.

In response to an earlier question the difference between this movie and previous documentaries is that it is largely Tyson himself talking. I've heard a few criticisms based on this, that there isn't enough footage etc, but most fans will already have plenty of that.

I thought the Givens stuff was interesting given how many attribute his downfall to her. It's a view Tyson clearly doesn't share. Let's face it, he can't have been the easiest person to live with at that time.

To me what clearly shone through was Tyson's fundamental lack of self-esteem. You can have all the talent in the world but without self-esteem you are never going to fulfil it.
