Original subtitles

When I say break, so you stop beating.

Does the challenger's brain have questions? The Master's Corner? So we go to it!

It was the words of Mills Lane.

The atmosphere is electric here at the Hilton Hotel. I get goose bumps.

WBC world championship in heavy play.

Mike Tyson has been training all his life for this evening.

Trevor wants to show he's a true master. Let's see how long he stays.

Tyson goes to it from the start. And Berbick is down.

He must take a standing stand. Four five six...

See that combination! Berbick wavering, but stays on the legs.

He can't accept that kind of support in the long run.

Here comes Tyson again. He knows he can shake him.

Tyson hits at will. He controls the fight in total.

We are only in the second half, and the master is already roaming around.

It's a matter of time for Mike for the right support. And right!

Mike Tyson is on the way to becoming one of the youngest youngsters of the times.

Hard to the body. And a right-left combination.

He's in the floor. He should be able to Get up if your legs are not gone.

I do not think, Trevor Berbick can continue.

He has the heart for it, but the body does not listen.

He's been spoken out. It counts as a knockout.

Mills Lane counts him out. The battle is over.

We have a new one world champion in gravity.

Mike Tyson, who wants to sit on the throne for a very long time.

The first question we ask is: Who am I?

Language, Nature of Mind. Voices that fight each other.

Word. Madness and chaos. Who am I? World champion.

Voices that fight each other. madness. Brain chaos.

In my childhood, I lay much at the hospital. I was sick all the time.

Maybe it was my lungs. I have a lung disease.

Fortunately, my matches were short, too I had trouble breathing.

My mother and her eight girlfriends and my brother and sister were sitting by my bed.

My mother and father lived together on it time. I think he was my father.

After I was born, It didn't go so well.

They were spared and my father slipped.

My mother was hard in it, so we moved to the Brownville neighborhood of Brooklyn.

It was a terrible, harsh and relentless neighborhood.

Kill or be killed. We went to school and were bullied.

When we went home, they pulled guns and tried to rob us.

They actually robbed us for our little money.

I remember they took my glasses and threw them behind in a milk car.

I had never been in battle at that time.

I did not find that perfect stranger would treat me like that.

I didn't know why -

- I just stuck off. I do not know, what happened. I'm just running.

And I think that's why people as I become more aggressive -

- and more exciting, because they don't want to exposed to such longer.

They will not be humiliated any more.

And it has made me the one I am.

People have a wrong perception of, who I am -

- But I'm just afraid to be like that again.

To be treated like that again. Being physically humiliated on the street.

At that time I couldn't be beaten. Yes, I could, but I didn't dare.

I was so scared.

But I liked pigeons, So I bought pigeons for stolen money.

One day some guys found my pigeons and wanted to steal them.

I said, "These are my birds." He said, "Do you want it again?"

So he tore his head off. It was The first time I came into battle.

I won. So I knew I could be beaten.

He was older than me, but I won. I was proud.

I had just hit some wild swings.

But I knocked him. And then I suddenly got friends.

People stopped bothering me.

I could go with jewelry and my pretty hair without being bothered.

It was in the summer of 1976 -

- that I had some guys on one rulleskjtebane. They looked exciting.

They were at my age, but they were wearing it as a man. They had trench coats on -

- and alligator shoes and Pierre Cardin's suit.

They were only a few years older than me, and they drove on moped.

They were wealthy. I had no idea they were criminals.

I was completely duped.

I asked a friend who knew them who they were.

I said: "They're cool. They run with the clad."

He said it was Rutland Road gang and they were criminals.

I got to know them. They committed burglary.

I was younger than them. They were 13-14 But I was great of my age.

We found places, where they sold cannabis and cocaine.

One knocked on the door and stacked $ 5 or $ 10 -

- or what the price was now, through the door and got the fabrics.

We got one who knew them to knock on.

So we followed our guns and plundered them.

I emptied their pockets, for I was the smallest and the youngest.

It happened that some of my friends were caught.

And some of those caught in the drug houses, were killed.

Some smokers in prison, some were killed, and some were killed half-dead.

So many of the friends, I grew up with, is dead.

The rest is on lifetime or are junkies in Brooklyn or Manhattan.

Very few of them are well-functioning adults.

But at that time it was just exciting.

Our worlds are so different that you never could understand the statement.

Being and being able to little someone gave a big rush.

Not to knock anyone and stealing their wallet -

- but to fool them even if they know you are a criminal.

When in the bus or in the supermarket and they keep je -

- and you still choke them ... Most would think:

"She knows me. I leave."

They keep constantly je, but they ask One mistake, and so one has their wallet.

I was arrested one day.

I knew a man from Bedford-Stuyvesant in Brooklyn.

He had done something against a whore, taken her bag or something.

She thought it was me because I was with him.

She threw a mug of cocoa in the face of me.

At the same time, I was arrested, while skin peeled off my face.

I had nothing to do with that. I wasn't an angel -

- And I had money in my pocket. When the stoker looked at me -

- I had $ 1,500 in my pocket. I was 12 years and had $ 1,500 in his pocket.

I couldn't account for the money, so i straighted out in the youth prison.

I was nervous and scared. It was the first time I was arrested.

I was 12 years old -

- And all the friends I don't had seen in years, sat in there.

It was like a reunion party.

When I saw them in there, I was no longer afraid.

So I went there regularly. Twice in the month or three times a year.

Eventually I was sent north. I was sent to Tryon's boy prison.

I met a Bobby Stewart. His box name was "Irish" Bobby Stewart.

People boxed with him on the weekend to let off steam.

And he gave them a bank.

They went and got a really rough just to ease the pressure.

I went there and got a stomach breathing, So I thought I should die.

Right in the solar plexus. I thought, I had to knock the little white man.

He hit me in the solar plexus and I smoke in the floor. I jumped up again -

- But the whole blood circulation was gone in st. I couldn't speak, not spirit.

He said I should go away. I tried playing hard -

- But he knew I was hurt. "Go away."

Afterwards I asked: "Can you train me?"

He said, "You don't want to train. Everyone says they will train. "

I had to show, I meant it, by controlling my behavior.

I became a cute guy, my characters got better and he taught me to box.

At that time, I was tired on trial release.

He said, "Don't go back." to Brooklyn. It ends up wrong. "

"I know a good coach." And in 1980 I saw Cus D'Amato.

You also need to score points, when you do the infight.

But I didn't trust others than Bobby Stewart at that time.

He surrendered me to another, but I didn't trust anyone other than him.

I had no idea what was going on. But he said, "Just trust that man."

I don't trust anyone. People shouldn't know me.

I just learned to trust him, because he trusts me. Much.

No one knows or is friends with Mike Tyson. Except for Cus D'Amato.

Cus D'Amato didn't let me box.

We talked about boxing and boxing psychology for two to three weeks first.

About what boxing was about. It was not at all physical, but spiritual.

He said: "If you don't have warriors -"

"- you never get boxes, no matter how big and strong you are. "

You don't mind.

You don't mind. They are something that distracts you.

As time went on, he continued to say these praising things to me.

I didn't know if he was gay. He praised me in a wake.

"You're a big boxer." "You're the greatest." "You get better."

He kept giving me compliments. What was he doing?

I didn't know that he built my confidence.

But when I grew up, I understood that he had built up my self-confidence.

We started boxing, and I got my first fight as an amateur.

I was so scared I said: "I just slip into the kiosk."

I said to my coach, that I went to the kiosk -

- But I wanted to jump train and get away. So scared I was.

That boxes in the ring is something completely different than turning on the street.

Even after all my training I was dogsled to box in a boxing.

But I got together, Cus had taught me self-discipline -

- went up the ring and won a knockout in the third round.

It was too daunting at first, so I didn't really want to box.

I lived in Cus's house. I came from a poor neighborhood -

- and they lived in a large Victorian pal .

In the beginning, I thought: "I can rob these white people."

I had no idea he was an old man rat and himself was from a harsh neighborhood.

One day he said, "You have the chance to change your and your family's life. "

"You can turn into something special. You can become world champion. "

I didn't notice him. "You can become world champion."

"You can smash the whole world. None can beat you. You just have to believe it. "

I looked at him and began to think.

"Does he mean that?" I thought, "That guy is crazy."

He said, "Just do as I say. If it doesn't work, you just go. "

"It's a deal," I said. So I did as he said -

- And I won.

I won all the titles.

I won all the Amateurs titles. Now I know how to check.

I won all the titles because he told me what to do.

I began to believe in the old one man. I stopped stealing.

Previously, I went back to New York and stole.

I stopped doing that. I changed my life. "I stick to boxing."

It should be like that. Again.

Who keeps the longest? Break. Very fine.

I devoted myself to the boxing. I became an animal and kept strict discipline.

He asked me to clean my room. He brainwashed me to a degree -

- that if he asked me to pray, I pray. I was almost his dog.

He knuckled me and built me ​​up again.

I was completely changed.

He changed my life. He taught me to surround others.

Before I could not talk to others and preferred to be alone.

Now I can talk to everyone, also about their problems.

It's like a father / son relationship, though he is my manager and coach.

The first day we met, he took me for one. He didn't even know me.

I feel a lot of affection for him.

For me he is my boy. He's with me.

I owe him a lot, And now I tell him why.

It's his fault I'm alive.

That he is here and doing so well and constantly getting better -

- motivates me to keep me alive.

For man there, when you don't want to live more.

Mike has given me motivation to live.

I intend to see him succeed.

I don't wanna do that before it happens.

As a 14-year-old I boxed at the youth Olympics.

I think it was in 1980. I beat all records.

- What do you want to do tomorrow? - Jabs to the head and body position.

And so away.

- And in infight? - Go crazy.

I won all matches at the knockout in the first half.

And I set a new record with a knockout after eight seconds.

It's the fastest knockout, registered.

How does that work out? Buy right.

I need to relax before it rises even more to my head.

Move your head.

Keep your head low, when you make eight numbers.

- Do I lift my head? - You lift it a little.

There is room for improvement. It's fine, but not perfect.

Cus trained me differently than their other boxers.

He taught me to show off inside and outside the ring.

Our relationship was completely different.

Our relationship was completely different.

When I came to the barn at Cus, was I a young boy -

- But after he talked to me every night about discipline and character -

- I knew no one ...

... that no physical ...

... ever would bother me again.

After I had spoken with Cus again and again -

- every night for hours -

- when I was a young boy, 13-14 years -

- I should never worry to be more enlightened.

I knew it would never happen again.

Because I knew ...

I knew then ... I can't get myself to say it.

Because I knew that if anyone bothered me, I would kill them.

That's what ...

I have a big mindrevrdskompleks.

When I was small and thick, I was bullied.

I'm never pulling from a fight

If someone says something childish to me, so I hit them.

I'm never pulling from a fight

I'm not starting it, But neither do I pull.

In a street fight, unlike in boxing, it's life or death.

If you don't kill them halfway, They return with a gun -

- or a gang. See a street hit is usually on life or death.

It's nice to box, when you are young and happy.

There is nothing more deadly and effective than a happy boxer.

People think it is the evil and the angry, who do best -

- but it is better to be relaxed, happy and just love to box.

I was never a heavyweight. My ideal weight was about 98 kilos.

But my coach and I made weight on speed and combinations.

Cus always said: "Speed ​​is draining."

The boxers I imitated, were lightweights.

Tony Canzoneri, Kid Chocolate, Henry Armstrong.

The little ones were so great. I knew I would be great.

Because I had speed and power.

- What 's that, man? - Will you be the next master?

Bill and I think Mike Tyson becomes a world champion in gravity.

The question is just when.

I have a goal -

- like me, Cus, Jim Jacobs and mine coach Kevin Rooney, has sat.

If there, God forbid, should happen something with Cus, so we continue.

When Cus D'Amato died, I was in New York on Manhattan's Lower East Side.

I was with my manager Jim Jacobs.

He told me, that Cus would die within ten hours.

And that we got to the bank and put some money in.

It was money I had earned on one boxing match. A few hundred thousand.

So we went to the bank, and I put the money in.

And I was just crying.

I am crying and crying and crying. And the lady behind the counter ...

I was hysterical. The lady behind The counter asked what was wrong.

Jim Jacobs explained that one of ours good friends were dead or dying.

And that I took it hard. I was hysterical.

Jim Jacobs was ice cold. He seemed unmoved.

But I felt that my life was in ruins. I didn't know what to do now.

I was a coffin carrier at Cus D'Amato's funeral.

I was proud to carry the coffin.

I was only 19 years old. I did not know, what i'm going to do in life

There were TV cameras and journalists -

- But I just told them: "My friend is gone."

I was very scared. I felt very vulnerable to me. And lonely.

I felt exhibited to the world. As a very vulnerable young man.

It was a terrible time for me. I was a young man of 19 years.

I never got the chance to show Cus, that I could become world champion.

"A boy comes to me with a spark. "

"I close the sparkle, so it will be a flame and the flame turns into fire. "

"I close the fire, until it becomes a roaring flame sea. "

CIRCULAR CAMPS

It's the chance Louis has been waiting for. He goes after the victory here in the first half.

He puts all his power in the stands. He wants to get rid of the challenger.

As a young boy in Catskill, New York, I could see lots of games on film.

There was a huge collection up there. It was nice to see the boxers.

I know each one a movement, they're doing.

I've been studying them for years, from when I was kidding.

From I was 13 until I was 21, I studied them every night.

I know each one a place and every move they make.

We're going back to September 22 1927. Soldier's Field in Chicago.

I have great respect for Cus. I believe in everything he says.

His word is my boxing Bible.

When talking about boxers, he speaks of their merits.

He talks about Jack Dempsey's wildness.

About Rocky Marcianos will and commitment.

If Muhammad Ali was his charisma and personality.

He said Ali was the best, because he had more charisma.

I didn't understand it then, though Later I understood what he meant.

I have never had a performance about myself.

I read about big men and trains their characteristics to me.

I thought that to be big, one had to be such and such.

I read about Errol Flynn, Jack Johnson, Jack Dempsey.

And what the great men have in common, are conquests of famous women.

So I thought that to be famous, you have to conquer women.

The more the better.

I had no idea that all those were conquering harm one more than they benefit.

I was preoccupied with sex. I came from one home where my mother was reading the tree.

It was her friends too. Yes, the whole neighborhood.

People said, "Suck on my cock," "So My pussy. "It was a vulgar environment.

I would like lots of girls, But to get it, I had to stay again.

The big boxers never had sex before a fight.

I wanted to be the youngest champion in heavy weight. So I held back for five years.

The best thing in life is to abstain from sex -

- and after that you have sex abstained from it. It's the best.

I've always been interested in women. I am drawn to them.

They have a magnetic attraction on me. I've always felt irritated.

And when I see a woman, I Always want to talk to them.

I love talking. Monologue. Talking. It can be difficult.

I love friendships and conversations.

Once, I was a beautiful party. It was on Fifth Avenue.

It was in 1990. It was incredible. A lovely party.

There was this beautiful woman ... There were lots of celebrities.

I was completely duped. And there was a model that was absolutely incredible beautiful.

She was wonderfully beautiful and of a for some reason she spoke to me.

I didn't know her, But she knew who I was.

It was bizarre. She went to the toilet and I ...

So much for her, I joined.

I sat down on the sink and started lick it off.

Monologue. Talking. I love friendships and conversations.

And from that night it ran out.

I booked the World Cup on November 22, 1986.

Against Trevor Berbick. The biggest boxes in history were Muhammad Ali -

- and he was humiliated by Berbick. It was supposed to be cleared.

When we were presented in the ring, Ali came and said, "Bank him for me."

When I met Trevor Berbick, had I had my sexual debut -

- But it must have been a whore, for I had gonorrhea.

A whore or an ugly young lady. I don't remember.

It sweat like hell.

I was too embarrassed to go to bed, so I had to keep the pain out.

But the gonorah didn't bother me.

Because I tried to have a mentality like Harry Greb or Mickey Walker.

They didn't care about everything.

They had a goal and it was winning. And I just wanted to win.

Crushing right. Game left hook.

I would destroy him. So everyone wanted understand that I was a serious challenger.

People knew then, I was a good boxer, But they thought I had to fuse.

They said, "He has only light battles."

So I would destroy him 1st round. I wanted to hurt him.

Hard blow to the body. And so left hook. And he's in the floor!

He represented my future and everything I wanted in life.

And after the match I was so excited, that I did not know my living counsel.

I knew Cus would have been proud of me. We had often talked about it.

I want to dedicate victory Cus D'Amato.

I'm sure he looks up from there.

- And smiling. What are your ambitions? - Gathering the boats.

I think I went with the World Cup in three weeks. Even when I went to the grocer.

I was very proud.

The sound of heavy metal indicates, that Mike Tyson is entering.

All that Tyson does, seems scary.

There he comes. Without buying on. He has warmed up well.

The atmosphere is amazing.

I haven't felt that way since one morning at. 4 in Kinshasa in Zaire -

- where Muhammad Ali met George Foreman in a World Cup match in heavyweight.

I have goose skin up to this one, and it is shown to many here.

The World Champion enters the ring. That's what we've come for.

Tyson looks like he used to. He just wants to finish it.

He has his handsome facial expression: "Get started."

He pushes the song back to get it the knuckles longer in the gloves -

- so he can get faster on someone, that is Mike Spinks.

Spinks are hit by a right. Tyson takes the lead in the first half.

Hard body position. Currently, Spinks counts the must.

A body post sends Spinks into the floor.

There is talk of him. Four, five, six, seven, eight ...

It was a body seat, who lowered him.

He's in the floor again! I doubt he's coming up.

There are five, six, seven, eight ...

He doesn't reach it. The battle is over. Mike Tyson has won!

Spinks almost fell out of the ring. A dramatic knockout in the first half.

What an incredible impact. It was in the first half.

The question is now: "Who in the world has any chance against this man? "

There is nothing like that to be world champion.

It is good in itself to be world champion in gravity -

- but one is special type of world champion.

To be mentioned with Joe Louis and Muhammad Ali -

- And the whole world knows who you are.

When you as an American leaving the plane abroad -

- and it feels like you are at home.

I have met Chechnya and Istanbul President, I was celebrated in Russia ...

I have been to St. Petersburg, who was a parade for me in Moscow.

Think a poor boy from Brooklyn would get a parade in Moscow?

In Japan, comics are made about me. And they have made small figures.

I've been to Romania, Istanbul, I've been to Portugal ...

I've been around the world. I've been to Slovakia, Thailand -

- I've met Gorbachev and Silvio Berlusconi.

And mr. Mandela have invited me to South Africa -

- But I haven't had the chance. I have problems with the supervision.

As a master you get women all over world. Models. All women of the world.

Everyone will be close to the master. Especially when you are in TV all the time.

I was a great master. Everyone was talking about me.

I knocked out the opponents spectacular way. It wasn't seen before.

My mission is to destroy. I refuse to be hit and knocked out.

I can't lose. I refuse to lose.

I always aimed for the back of my mind.

As if the place was smoke right through the head.

It sounds brutal, But it's just technology, boxing.

When people hear it, They think you are a brutal monster.

But it's about technology, speed and precision. It's my style.

They challenge me with their primitive abilities. They don't have a chance.

People don't know how hard it is to break someone's buy.

They think it is pure power, But that is the power of power.

All strokes are beaten with evil will and devilish speed.

He whipped in there. He made women's ...

My job was to make people shameless. I love to box -

- because of the feeling afterwards.

When the job is well done, follows the satisfaction.

I knocked them with power and screaming techniques.

Most had lost the fight, even before they were hit.

I was turning around. I could beat people psychologically before we met in the ring.

As soon as I enter the ring, I accept ... No, it doesn't.

Five minutes before I go in the ring, Before I bound the gloves.

I break down the song ...

I wear the leather so the knot can Breaking the Everlast glove.

When I come out, I ooze of self-confidence, but is the scarecrow.

I'm afraid of losing and staying humiliated, but I ooze with confidence.

The closer I get to the ring, The more self-confidence I have.

During the training up to the match I've been afraid of losing.

I dreamed he was defeating me, and fear has been hanging.

But when I enter the ring, I'm a god. No one can defeat me.

I never remove my eyes from my opponent.

Even if he's pumped up and looks to rejoice -

- I keep my eyes fixed. Suddenly I see a language in the armor.

He's looking away, and so I have him.

When we meet in the middle, he looks, as if he's not scared.

But he's already made that mistake Looking away in a split second.

He sticks hard for two or three turns, But I know his spirit is broken.

During the struggle, I ooze with confidence. I'm dodging the bumps and slipping versus.

I'm standing by the body and hitting hard. I know he can't resist me.

One, two, three positions. I turn in series. He smokes on the floor. He's done.

I've won. Mike Tyson, the biggest boxer ever.

I enjoyed last night, Jackson.

I said Robin Givens on TV one day.

I called a guy and asked him to contact her.

I called the guy every day.

Eventually he got arranged a dinner with her.

We were together a few weeks, and so I freed her.

Maybe it was a few months. But then we got married.

It was a disaster, because I was too immature to get married -

- and we were both young. I don't know why I did it.

But the feelings raged and I was Show in love, so I married.

And of course I was a pig, And I began to be her unfaithful.

And since I wasn't ...

... was not the world's most cautious and cunning guy -

- I was constantly revealed. And she didn't care.

We often got scared, and it got pretty ugly.

Michael is manic depressive. It's just a fact.

It has been pure torture. It's been hell.

It's been, than I could have imagined.

Now I understand abused women. The times -

- where he didn't can control his temper -

- It's scary for me and my mother.

I don't understand why Robin Givens they told me about TV on TV.

I do not know what she would achieve but I was a complete target.

Today I do not understand I just sat and found myself in it -

- but on the other hand hoped They sure I would flip out on television.

They expected that. So I was calm.

But they probably expected I would go crazy. It was the plan.

Michael can be very manic and rough. Not physically, but verbally.

After the marriage with Robin Givens and the connection to Don King -

- Tyson's life fell apart. Case lawsuits, car accidents and housing issues.

Bernardsville police received a message about house spectacles on Tyson's residence.

Love can be fleeting. Tyson And the donor's parody is over.

She seeks divorce after eight months of marriage.

It was ironic. We saw ours divorce scenarios on television -

- while we were in bed together.

I really don't think we would divorce, but the atmosphere was just so intense -

- that it didn't do it, and so we went apart.

I felt abandoned, but I was responsible for that myself.

I felt alone, I felt embarrassed.

I felt like a half man. I was not in balance.

We were two children who married us but the whole world looked with.

I didn't know how to go respond. I was 21, she was 22.

They judged us both. I was naughty, she was bad.

I was a wife trafficker, she was lucky. We were just kids.

We were just kids, just kids.

I tried to keep in touch to her. I wouldn't lose it.

What I want of a woman, is security, fidelity, companionship.

Faithfulness, friendship, wildness. Peace of mind. She must support me for the last.

If I turn, she'll get me to escape. Even if I win.

I like strong women, not masculine, but strong.

A female director. A strong woman with confidence -

- And so do I Sexually dominate her.

I want to look at her, as a tiger monitors a wound prey.

She must remember me and, On a bizarre way, love me.

Look at them. Keep distance at least half an hour before I digest them.

And bring them ecstasy.

I like to say no all the time, When I love.

When they ask for something, I say no. I want the extreme.

What they want is never so Extremely like what I want.

They get a little if they give me much. I don't want to love but love.

I don't want to be loved. I don't like love.

I have too much love to give. It's me who decides.

I want to refer them. Fuldstndig.

After Robin's divorce I lost much of the boxing enthusiasm.

I boxed a couple of matches against poor opponents and won.

Then the Buster Douglas fight, That should have been easy.

I had hit three boxers before that were better boxers than Buster Douglas.

No, it was four. One hit Buster Douglas out. It was Tony Tucker.

I hadn't trained much. I didn't take Buster seriously.

I went to Japan and had lots of female visits to the room.

I didn't train much. Actually struck a sparring partner on the floor.

We are in the 9th round. Let's see, if Mike can keep the steam up.

He would like to have done it. No one had expected so long a blast.

No matter what happens, Douglas has great years of battle.

Tyson is looking for the right place. An uppercut. But Buster is beaten!

Just look! Buster is not ready to give up.

Buster is coming again! Was it Mike's leg that smoked?

Buster for some powerful support!

He still has to watch out. Look there! Who had expected this ?!

We thought Buster was finished, but he shows real courage.

That man's courage, Tyson's opponents so often have missed. But Buster has it.

Now it's Mike who hangs in the ropes.

Mike is on the heels. Man Buster to put in his jabs.

Beautiful uppercut from Buster Douglas. Just look. Mike Tyson is on the floor!

For the first time in his career hits Tyson canvas.

He's in big trouble. There are seven, eight ...

He can't handle it.

Unbelievable. Absolutely incredible!

Buster Douglas is it new world champion in heavyweight.

This must be one of the biggest surprises in boxing history.

Buster Douglas is the new one undisputed world champion in gravity.

I had it bad that night. I only have to thank myself for it.

Buster trained well and boxed a good match.

But it was a hard night for me.

I lost faith in myself, then Cus died and after I got divorced.

I loved hearing Cus talk about "to refuse to be knuckled" -

- and all the nice quotes.

But I lost that, when I lost my supervisor and friend.

All that dead with him.

- Mike, over here. - Mike, take off your sunglasses.

- What happened in Tokyo? - It was bad.

But Buster Douglas did well. I'm soon a world champion again.

I mistreated myself and my body.

Getting high status at an age of 19-20 years was a little too much.

It's not to apologize, but it is a young age for a world champion.

I had never learned to organize my life.

It is because of my childhood. I didn't get the basic tools.

A mother and father and family tradition where to read the problems together.

I just thought of myself -

- And if I couldn't handle it a problem, I got rid of.

I was never able to to analyze or decode a problem.

Everything was cryptic. And it was too cryptic, I just stuck off.

It's a dream of the kind. Beautiful women giving it gas.

What can I say?

- Hang on with them. - Definitely.

A case of rape has been reported.

And it's Mike Tyson who supposedly has committed the crime.

Mike, do you have anything to say?

I am innocent. Davs, mr. Charles.

When I was falsely accused of having raped swine Desiree Washington -

- it was my life's most terrible moment -

- Because in prison I lost mine humanity and my reputation.

It's possible I behaved badly and was read on the tree -

- But I crooked not the woman's honesty.

I can well be a fool and say vulgar things -

- But I would never do that.

I have used women before, but not her.

I don't know what to say but my whole life spark was sucked out.

I haven't trusted in any side. Not even myself.

I lost confidence, What about women and getting married.

I didn't even trust my wife after the rape sentence.

I've had that incident hanging out all over the years.

I do not know, how i get over it.

My friends say, "Let it lie." But it's me to live with it.

In prison, I lost faith in God.

I became a Muslim in prison, but I lost faith in myself.

I was almost a human being. I've seen the most beastly deeds.

I have often seen when a police officer follows -

- when dispensing medicine. May have the guard helped catch the guy.

So for the guard a charge shipping thrown into the spring.

Or a potty piss thrown in the spring. They save their own business.

People start suddenly a race war.

Or maybe some people drink working in the kitchen -

- something home-born and start some games.

Or maybe someone is trying to fire your cell.

Or maybe become a female prison assisted rape on the toilet.

So many things happen in a prison, which one does not understand.

People don't care. They sit in 40 or 100 years They can't be punished any more.

One balances on a knife saw with that kind of people.

They suffer from a green psychosis. They should be hospitalized.

I'm not trying to play harsh at all. I don't want problems.

I'll be serving three years. I will Don't have any problems with anyone.

"In Reading Tugthus is a grave, in which a poor man - "

"- whose sin was great, is now being destroyed, of the fiery flames of the flames. "

"His grave is navel, lime, lime, there is like a fire. "

"Then let him go to the day of judgment in silence rest there. "

"To empty sighs, sneered cry is no cause here. "

"He did bid because he waved the woman he was given. "

"And, hear it! We all kill after all, the one we have is running. "

"One does it with a poisonous look, One just by a loving birth. "

"The coward does it with a kiss, the valiant with his sword. "

I've been sitting in the hole a number of times. And it's pretty insane.

I sit there for 23 hours a day with the light on.

They never turn off the light. One sleeps on the concrete floor only.

You never know when to get the cell searched and being searched for.

Death would be a liberation. One still feels dead in prison.

You get used to being alone, that You start talking to yourself.

You become your own best friend.

Everyone has landed. No one calls one. The visits are shorter and shorter.

I know I lose my mind, though It is the sole point of mind.

Insanity is the only impudent, I have.

I know it sounds contradictory, but that was my life at that time.

The insanity was the only sane I had.

The debt is paid. Tomorrow is three Years ago, Mike Tyson smiles -

- after a rape sentence.

The same were gathered around him, But something in Tyson may have changed.

KI. 18.10, surrounded by its following, the closest he was in the ring -

- Tyson left the prisoner as one free man for the first time in three years.

The camper went straight to the mosque in Plainfield, three kilometers from the prison.

The caravan followed. He prayed 30 minutes with 200 others -

- including another former master, there also came a comeback after three years.

When I became a Muslim I was probably too extreme.

I was too strict, too sectarian, too violent.

I used Islam, because I was bitter in the world.

People who disagreed with me I said as the enemy.

Gradually I inserted that it was wrong.

I became more humble and submissive. That's what Islam does.

Islam is not about war, but about humanity.

I did not know. I had to do some research -

- to find out the truth. Because I represented it incorrectly.

In the prison, I was angry on society -

- that I made a tattoo of Mao and by Che to get the authorities.

But I was shown ahead of my time, for now everyone is talking about Che.

People hated Che, but now they do his image as hot bread.

He has become a great business. And in China you have Mao on the T-shirt.

When Mao lived, he would never have allowed his picture to be sold.

A friend of mine, Victor Paradox in Las Vegas ...

I said I would tattoo my face. First it should be tattooed with hearts.

But he said he would find something.

He represents New Zealand warrior tribe, the Maori.

They were a real warrior tribe.

They had face tattoos, as they screamed their enemies.

I was an unruly type that was don't care about the opinions of others -

- So it was a bold tattoo.

It was unreal when I was released. I suddenly had a lot of friends.

Everyone would think me, because when I did came out, I had about $ 200m.

It was as if everything was like before. They flocked about me. Mike is the king.

But I had another mentality. I thought everyone would cheat me.

My mentality has changed. I was afraid of everything and everyone.

I did not feel like an animal, but as a man who was afraid.

I felt that everyone was against me.

Give him a spin on it!

Give your mother a thrill, your white narrv. I fuck you in the ass, fool!

Bsserv. You can't do anything to me your baby girl. I am alive with you.

Run me, boy. I'll fuck you in the fox for the eyes of all. Just come!

Your wretched crosses. Twit. You survive not two minutes in my world.

Luder boy. You're scared like a little one white fame. Afraid of a real man.

I fuck you until you love me your b sser v.

I was paranoid.

I was in bed with my friend. I woke up and grabbed her.

I thought she was a man, who would stab me or something.

I was so cute.

Good day. The last three years I have had opportunity to reflect on my life.

I will try to be a better one human, so I can help others -

- But I'm here to talk about my professional future.

Many rumors have flourished, but i want back in the ring ...

In the prison I became depressed -

- Because the World Cup titles changed hands like a volleyball.

I was in despair may never box again.

I was looking forward to a new title fight.

I met Frank Bruno for that second time. He was a WBC champion.

I trained hard and rejoiced.

I knew I was another boxer now, but I could beat him out.

When I won the title, I got tears in the eyes of happiness.

I wanted to win the belts back.

The new WBC world champion in heavy weight ...

I picked up the belts again when I was defeated Bruce Seldon in the first half.

So I had two belts, only 11 months after I was released.

It didn't even have Muhammad Ali done.

And again I let it all go. I thought I was a god.

I could do without training. I thought I was something special.

I went to it and held wild parties. I cultivated sex in abundance.

And it came to cost.

We are ready for tonight's main fight.

Ladies and gentlemen, boxing fans all over the world -

- it's time for that fight, everyone has been waiting for.

Now it is read!

1996. I'm the mother of Evander Holyfield.

I was stubborn on I would hit him.

He was a big boxer, but not in my class.

So I'm looking forward to getting started. The first half is full of wildness.

Holyfield is versus one left hook. And a combination.

Suddenly it is black for me. I don't mean I'm hit.

- Stop! - Mitch Halpern stops the fight again.

- Random skull. - Who's bleeding? Tyson bleeds.

Suddenly, it blurs me again. I can't remember the fight at all.

They stood the heads together again. This time, Tyson staggered.

Tyson was shaken.

I fight and fight, but suddenly I am hit.

I scratch the ring. He shakes Not me, but I lose balance.

I couldn't feel the support, though I could hear them. Bum-bum-bum!

And suddenly I think: "What the hell, though, wake up!"

I'm trying to catch him. Bum-bum! And suddenly the fight is stopped.

He must have fought a nice match. Now I was a former champion.

It's the most incredible, I've had the year to witness!

When I was World Champion, I was king.

I had luxury homes all over the country and the finest cars.

But I was crazy about spammers. I wanted them to drink my blood.

And then sell it. So I bought it back so they could drink it again.

It was my downfall. I was surrounded by so many spotters.

Everyone has their purpose in life. I don't mean the word spamming negatively.

After all, I allowed it to happen. On some areas I myself am a sponge.

They drank me and I drank from them. It was given and taken.

So I only have to blame myself.

My philosophy was, that people are some assholes.

- They always try to move one. - All?

You meet strange people occasionally -

- But you know it yourself. People give nothing for the feelings of others.

- Not to trust? - Definitely.

My first managers were almost slave traders.

I was only 18 ... 17. And too young to sign the contract.

But when Cus was dead, I wrote. They took 1/3 of my earnings.

I got rid of them, but so I ran into the pig Don King.

He is a miserable, slimy and ice cold bastard.

He was supposed to be my black brother, man he is a bad man.

He used one ... He wanted kill her mother for one dollar.

He's reckless, despicable ... He Don't know how to love someone.

The best country in the world. USA, buddy!

A friend told me that most of my money was gone.

The money that should be on the account was away so we had to do something.

I handled it very immature.

I do not understand business, so I handled it very immature.

I confronted him with that, and he basically refused -

- And then I attacked him in front of the Beverly Hills Hotel.

I stayed at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

I attacked him for the eyes some old, offensive white women.

There was a whole bunch. They thought I was a black barbarian.

I attacked him and kicked him.

I really loved that man but I just kicked it on him.

And I ... I don't know ... I think it was black for me.

So we should through all that crap in court -

- and I was assigned ...

Was it ten ... or 20 million?

I received a smaller amount.

I don't know if it was 20 or 30 million. It's just as much.

It just ruined everything. It was a bad time in my life.

Exits have been through the years doubts about the Holyfield-Tyson games -

- back from the canceled 1991 fight.

So when Tyson said he had got it a fly over the jet during sparring -

- many said: "That battle never turns out to be anything."

But there has always been a sense of inevitability -

- something destined for that finally brought the food to a halt.

1997. Revanche. Evander Holyfield.

1st round. Carefully lay out.

An equal right from Mike Tyson, as Evander Holyfield rejects.

I was suddenly groggy. I now know it was from a skull.

It was the same as at our first meeting.

In the second half I feel groggy again without being hit.

He is taller than me. What is his head doing down there?

I got a fly over the egg.

Tyson has a fly by right, from when their heads stood together.

- It was a skull. - Deja-vu.

He nods me yet another skull. I complaints. The leader does nothing.

Tyson seeks help from the leader.

In the third round I fight game. I am furious.

- It's the Tyson we know. - A wild Mike Tyson.

Listen.

The audience begins to call Tyson.

I'm so furious that I want to beat kill him. I lose the socket.

I go to sleep. I want to fuck him. I bite him. He gets stunned.

I want to kick him in the groin. But I just push him.

I wanted to kill him. I was tired of his shells.

The worst thing a soldier can do is losing its self-discipline.

I was disappointed with myself because I did lost self-discipline and conception.

He prayed Holyfield in the right ear.

I wanted to smash it all. I would smash everyone in his ring corner.

So the whole ring goes crazy, and I'm crazy at that moment.

I was furious and I didn't care with the current boxing rules.

He consciously nodded me a skull, so I would also make him angry.

So when I asked him again and stayed disqualified, I did not care.

I wanted to make him so much pain as possible, but I was crazy.

Mike Tyson bids Evander Holyfield for the second time. It is pure war.

This is incredible.

It's over. Mills Lane has stopped the fight.

He's got enough. Tyson bed Holyfield twice in desperation.

Beware!

They continue to fight after the battle is over. Tyson wants to get hold of Holyfield.

It's pure chaos. Tyson looks after everything and everyone.

People are trying to get into the ring.

The guards try to keep Tyson back.

I don't know what I'm thinking at that time. I'm very angry.

I went home and became tall. After the match, I was high at home.

And so I just fell asleep.

I got some pot, drank some booze and fell asleep.

We have to use the strictest possible sanctions.

Which is a $ 3 million bid and the inclusion of the boxing license.

I was bitter for boxing, so i really didn't care.

I was angry with the boxing union. I didn't bother taking care of it.

I had lost the desire to be world champion. Now it was money.

Lennox Lewis and Mike Tyson have avoided each other for years.

The fight against Lewis was rushed up, that I didn't take it particularly seriously.

I'm the most brutal master ever. No one can stop me.

Is Lennox a Conqueror? No. But I is Alexander. I am the best.

It was games for the gallery to sell the fight.

Because when I say something, people would like to see it come true.

I eat his heart and his children. Praise Allah.

After this fight I will be remembered.

If they forget me, it is because I am does not live up to society's standards.

The two matches are connected. Do not know hip, but between Tyson's teeth.

He finished the first one at bid Holyfield -

- and was about to finish it here by bidding Lewis to the press release.

I just went up to him, maybe a little respectful -

- And then he hit me, And so it went crazy.

I just have to rule tyrannical. I'm the beast, the barbarian.

To put those lessons and the pointers in place -

- Who thinks I'm a scum. I'm probably a scum, but angelic.

You would have had more matches within it here.

- Are you ready mentally and physically? - Yeah, I'm fine.

Another hard right from Lewis.

Lennox is trying to finish the match with a minute back of the 8th round.

Mike Tyson was very motivated up to the fight.

He was hoping to get some redress both in career and in life.

He's doing well. He has courage.

Big right from Lewis, and Tyson is in the floor for the third time in your career!

The money bet more to me than the title, for I was not in very good shape.

I wasn't enough on top either physically or mentally to win.

But I knew I would make a lot of money.

There is a fantastic moment during the interview after the match -

- where you gently dry Lennox's blood cheek while answering a question.

- Do you feel he's your friend? - We have been friends for 15 years.

I have pigeons. The pigeons live together for 10-15 years.

But when I feed them, they chop each other to blood. Like boxers.

We love and respect each other, But we need the money.

I think it's an art to manage the money.

Either I have lots of money, or I'm flat too.

I can't live in between.

I do not know why this is so. No one understands an extremist's mind.

People can condemn me, but do not understand my mind.

Don't have one extreme personality -

- you do not understand how anyone can burn $ 400m of.

I live on the world's tip or on the bottom of the ocean. There is no intermediate road.

Money is a kind of blood of paper. You live on them.

But I like to help others. Using them and making people happy.

Sometimes I give them away but I also use them on myself.

I didn't think I'd live right long, so I lived fairly indefatigably.

I'm 40 years old. I never thought I was so old.

I have lived indecently because I did not I thought I was 40. It's a miracle.

I've spent a lot of money, and I don't have so many more -

- But it doesn't matter for I have never been greedy.

But I wish I had been smarter. Old too early, clever too late.

I am the proud father of six children. It was my happiest moments.

Gena, my eldest daughter, will soon be in college -

- and Amir and Rayna were unbeaten throughout the basketball season.

They are ten and 11 years old. and they were in "Good Morning America".

Exodus and Miguel are still small. They are five and two years old.

They haven't done anything yet.

And Mikel at 16 also goes to school. I is proud to be a happy father.

- Sheep! - Be quiet, when you box.

At him, Rayna.

You got him, Rayna. You got him. You knockout him. You did it.

And the new world champion is called Rayna Iman Tyson.

Up with the hands, Rayna. You have won.

I met Monica 21 years ago. A common friend introduced us.

We found together. I'm smoking, but she supported me in the three years.

We spent a lot of time together and got married.

She gave me a daughter, Rayna. And then she gave me my son Amir.

We were married for seven years, but I did ran around with other women.

I was never home, and finally we slipped apart.

And so we got divorced. But we have remained good friends.

We are good friends, but a terrible couple.

She is a wonderful mother. She commits her life to the children.

The children say, "I want to go to Canada." "I want to go to France." "To Tibet, mother."

And so they travel. I have never seen something similar. They are jet seters.

I don't understand. I was not jetsetter when I was 11-12 years old.

I never left the corner of the street.

Is "Iron" Mike become "Soft" Mike?

Tyson must try to find the battles there made him the world's most evil man.

An aging boxer's power is the last thing to smoke.

The McBride match was just for the money. I didn't expect to win.

I did not care. I was in such a bad shape, tired.

I didn't take it seriously. It was just for the money.

A mediocre McBride for Tyson to look like a third-grade sword.

Break!

15 seconds left of the 6th round.

If McBride wins the game, he leads with 10-7.

He was not slammed into the floor. McBride just pushed Tyson down.

But he has a hard time getting up.

He wants help from Joe Cortez.

He can barely get on his legs.

It was a boost. Go to your ring corner. It was a boost.

Tyson raises around.

It is enough. I am in charge here. And I say that's enough.

I'm the one in charge. The fight is over. It's over.

Kevin McBride has won. Tyson stays on the stool.

He does not reach the 7th round. The battle is over.

Kevin McBride has beaten Mike Tyson.

Mike, did you want to continue?

Yes, but I was hit a lot. I don't think I have it anymore.

I can keep fit, but the battle is gone.

- When was it up to you? - Early in the fight.

I'm sorry to have disappointed the audience. I do not have the heart with longer.

- Did you have it at the start of the game? - No. I'll just pay bills.

I don't want any more. I am thinking more of my children.

I don't have the wildness anymore. I'm no longer an animal.

- Is it end of boxing? - Probably.

I don't want to bring boxing in disrepute.

Many probably ask themselves, what you want to do now.

I'm more than boxing.

I'm sorry to disappoint the audience. But I needed the money.

Not to take anything from Kevin, though I don't like boxing anymore.

I haven't liked it to box since 1990.

But, Kevin, congratulations on the victory and good luck with my career.

I was just tired of boxing.

There is no room for boxing in my heart longer.

If I have any anger, so it is aimed at myself.

I'm disappointed with myself. I should have been wiser and more accomplished.

And I have hurt them I love the highest.

When I drank and was on drugs -

- I had no respect for others or myself.

I didn't care about my closest, but the children made me sense.

I became an abuser because of depression -

- and finally I had to go to rehab, for I felt a great emptiness inside.

I had got everything possible in life, though none of it could fill the gap.

If I have all those things, and they can't fill the gap -

- It must be something else I am looking for.

I don't know what I want, but I am glad I went to weaning.

I want to see my children get married and graduates.

I'd like to see Mike Tyson with one grandchild. How could it be?

I want to see my children grow up. I I do not like the one I have become.

I am an insane individual. I have filled the body with drugs.

I don't want that anymore. I just want to Be a decent man.

I am happy with myself now. I've got a better outlook on life.

I can't make the past about But I want a healthy future.

I am doing a lot in my health now.

My past is a fact, and my future becomes a mystery.
