Mar 13 2009'Tyson' Trailer: Mike Was Only Mad At Himself!
He's met the president of Istanbul; he's had a parade in Moscow (where they don't even speak English!); he did, you know, all those really crazy things. Now you can hear Mike's side of things in the documentary Tyson. Here's the trailer, where he reveals that, if he has any anger, it's directed at himself. How about that? Iron Mike holds no animosity towards Evander Holyfield for making his ear look so delicious, nor towards the woman he sexually assaulted, nor towards the president of Istanbul. What a great guy:
I'll have to put this in the Netflix cue, break up the Air Bud series with a more serious look a top athlete.

There is convincing evidence to suggest he didn't assault that woman. Either that, or she got assaulted on a regular basis by lots of different guys.

I know it's probably hard to believe to those born after 1990 but when Tyson was at the height of his prowess before he became a media buffoon, he was truly awesome. Never thought I'd say such a thing.

"Iron Mike holds no animosity towards Evander Holyfield for making his ear look so delicious"
very misleading sentence, this makes it sound as if Evander was the one biting Mike's ear. Tyson was the one who did all the biting, why would he hold any animosity?

@7 I think you might not be the brightest bulb on the chandelier.
Tyson would be pissed at Holyfield because Holyfield made Holyfield's ear look delicious. Hence, when Tyson bit said delicious-looking ear, which sparked the beginning of the end of his career in boxing, said animosity would be justified. Unless you were joking about not getting it. In that case, good one.
