A F***ing Savage
In his prime, I don’t think any fighter from the past or present could compete tbh.
Marty needs to make the film already.
Jamie Foxx is ready.
Instead he’ll make another movie with Leo

You think anybody can play Tyson and do the role justice? Will be interesting. They should just let Mike play himself and use that technology that they used with Will Smith in Gemini Man

Nah, that’s not a good idea.
I love The Irishman but the CGI technology to make DeNiro look young was bad at times.
Jamie Foxx is getting old as well.
Someone like Trevante Rhodes would be perfect or if they want a big star of course MBJ.
one of my favourite atheltes and public personalities he seems like a great dude on his podcast he's very insightful at times.

I love him. He channelled his life of hardship into ferocity in the ring. He’s also a much smarter dude than people give him credit for, which was reflected in his psychological tactics before, during and post fight.
Every time I hit the gym I think about Mike and how hard he works
He’s like a real life all might to me even though the world saw him as a villain
Mike vowed for revenge when Larry Holmes beat Muhammad Ali
He called him and literally told him he would
this dude came out no coat and the only 'music' was some f***ing eerie bass bro. absolute gladiator
Mike came out to the sound of an immediate concussion
Mike vowed for revenge when Larry Holmes beat Muhammad Ali
He called him and literally told him he would
Really?! That’s amazing. The Larry Holmes and Ali fight was a farce

The teenager was raging, his desire to seek instant retribution brewed and Tyson, in an interview with ESPN, vividly recalled how he began to hatch a plot with his mentor from that very second.
“Cus had wanted me to beat him so bad. I was offended by how bad he beat up Ali.
“When we drove home to Catskill about an hour from Albany, nobody in the car said a word, we were all so upset. The next morning, Cus was on the phone with Muhammad Ali after taking this shellacking from Holmes.
“He said to Ali, ‘I have this young black kid who is going to be heavyweight champion someday and I want you to talk to him.’”
Even though Tyson had the chance to talk to his hero, one of the greatest sports stars in history, he still had just one thing on his mind – vengeance.
“When I grow up, I’ll fight Holmes and I’ll get him back for you.”
Tyson became the first heavyweight to hold all three major titles – WBA, WBC and IBF – at the same time, but retribution finally presented itself in 1988.
In an event billed as ‘Heavyweight History’, 38-year-old Holmes was tempted out of retirement by a $3million offer from Don King to face the ferocious Tyson.
Muhammad Ali was invited to the bout to watch at ringside, parading in front of the crowd before the first bell to lap up the adulation before turning stony-faced and whispering something in Tyson’s ear.
“Remember what you said – get him for me”
In just four rounds, Tyson proved too fast, too strong and too deadly for the former heavyweight champion as he was dropped twice to the canvas before the fight was called off – Holmes knocked out for the first time in his 75-fight career.
The hungry champion had lived up to his promise from eight years before, decimating Holmes in mere minutes to avenge the sustained beating given to his hero Ali back at Caesars Palace.
Beautiful
