Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has announced DVD ($28.96) and Blu-ray ($39.95) releases of Tyson which chronicles the rise and fall of former Heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson. The James Toback directed documentary will be available beginning August 18th. Extras will include a commentary with Director James Toback, and 3 featurettes (“A Day with James Toback”, “Iron Mike: Toback talks Tyson”, “The Big Picture Show”).
Here is the synopsis of the film:
“The most ferocious boxer to ever step inside the ring, Mike Tyson was at age 20 the youngest heavyweight champion in history. But within a few short years, the baddest man on the planet was himself on the ropes, the victim of his own rage and fear. Told exclusively through the compelling words and commentary of Iron Mike himself, TYSON is a powerfully frank and provocative look at one of the most controversial and misunderstood sports figures of all time.”
