Pretty Decent Card.......2007-07-25

I enjoyed this event alot and I recommend it. My personal oppinion is that it's between a 3 1/2 and 4 1/2 star product. Main event was outstanding.

Solid.......2007-04-29

This is a solid card that shines because of the two legends in the main event. The other bouts are as follows--Gabriel Gonzaga vs. Mario Neto Rashad Evans vs. Jason Lambert David Loiseau vs. Mike Swick Joe Lauzon vs. Jens Pulver Melvin Guillard vs. Gabe Ruediger Danny Abaddi vs. Jorge Gurgel Jason Dent vs. Roger Huerta Tyson Griffin vs. David Lee. A nice mix of knockouts, submissions and decisions. The matches vary in excitement, but not really a bad card at all. There is also a nice upset. Not that much behind the scenes stuff as usual, with no post fight interview from Penn. The between the rounds minute and the post fight interviews have been cut as usual. That's good if you just want the fights, but I enjoy hearing from the fighters and getting a little more depth.

Not so exciting..........2005-07-03

Although I'm a huge Mike Tyson fan.. this DVD turned out to be a bit of a disappointment. It was purely built as a PR tool to get people to *know* the real Mike and Tyson. I would not recommend buying this item since it really doesn't contain anything but very close up interviews... I don't know why the cameraman was so close to the folks being interviewed... in some cases you could even count the hair in their nose.

When I opened the carboard box which contained this dvd I knew something was a bit fishy. The picture of Mike on the front has had his facial tattoo digitally inserted onto him and I know this for two reasons. The first one being obvious. If you scroll up and look at the picture that advertises this dvd you will see that his tattoo is not there. The second one is that the picture on the front (the angry looking one) was taken January 2002 at the Lewis vs Tyson press conference when Tyson lost the plot. He didn't get his face tattooed untill Febuary 2003. Anyway enough about that I just found it funny. Although they did a good job. It looks genuine.

The dvd itself is a bit of a letdown. It's mainly revolves around his European tour he did back in the year 2000. Mostly the camera follows him as he buys stuff like a million dollar watch and speaks to hundreds of Brixton fans via a handheld loudspeaker. The best parts of this dvd is when Mike is at press confrences trash talking and living up to the public's and media's expectations of Tyson. Some of the worst parts are interviews with people about Mike Tyson. Not because people shouldn't have their say but the camera is far to close to some of them. There is this one man in particular who is interviewed throughout the film and the camera must be about 15 inches away from his face. It gets very annoying (like my spelling mistakes).

Even though this dvd was released this year it was made a few years ago (before he fought Lennox Lewis). It does have interviews with Lewis just as advertised but they are interviews before the two even had a date set to face off in the ring. Be warned there is no footage past 2001. The dvd does not deserve the tittle "Mike vs Tyson". It is not in depth and barly a documentry. It has no footage of him in the ring (just pictures). It does have a lot of footage I hadn't seen before and being a huge Mike Tyson fan for $10 that is good enough for me. If you want a really good Mike Tyson documentry check out "Killer Instinct". In short "Mike vs Tyson" is a perfect example of false advertising.

The running time is only 50 mins.

Mike vs Tyson Doesn't Live Up To It's Subject or Title.......2004-11-18

Mike vs Tyson Doesn't Live Up To It's Subject or Title

This is just ok.

It's not really a documentary - this is the London view of Mike Tyson's recent past. Most of the footage is shot in England.

There is some info regarding his coming up and his past, but not a lot.
The film falls far short of "examining the man described as a monster by his critics and a hero by his fans"

It's interesting and gratifying to see Mike walking around and shopping and being portrayed as a human being rather than a crazy, angry monster.

If you're a Tyson fan then this is a nice addition to your collection of knowledge or materials (DVD collection)

If you're not a fan you can skip this one.

an inside look at mike tyson.......2004-05-11

this dvds a great way for those who dont know much about the hype of mike tyson to see his early greatness to see what a champion he was the michael jordan of boxing on wheaties boxes on mcdonald commercials in videogames he was the most popular heavyweight champ since ali his shy unsureness trade mark voice and amazing boxing talent with his kidlike mind made him loved by millions then his fall from grace and his recent troubles are covered a great dvd for historical purposes or maybe someone wanting to know more about mike tyson who to this day at age 39 captivates millions even though hes not nearly the fighter he was in the 80s same power but no longer the amazing speed or movement but hes still considered a contender to win pack the title cause the lack of talent currently in the heavyweight decision and hes still got a huge punch he lost recently to danny williams but almost koed him in 1 round before hurting his knee and has a fight coming up with baby joe mesci and if he wins he will be right back in the hunt id love to see him get lucky win the title back and be graceful for once say hes sorry for his wrong doings then retire champion and maybe hed get some of his legacy back cause no matter what he was the youngest champion in history with the fastest knockout in history many avoided fighting him u could say he avoided lewis in the 80s but thats after don king was in his life thus his life was allready over alot of people dont realize mike tyson hasnt been great since the mid 80s he had people in his life who cared for him then he trained hard was young and hungry then don king took him made him lazy and a party head and drained his account and look what happened to him
