When it comes to Mike Tyson the train wreck is never bad enough to make you want to turn away. Except for maybe that time Lennox Lewis made him bleed from inside his eyelids back in 2002. Throughout the past three decades the true human drama unfolding before you is as real as reality television gets. Sure, it gets uncomfortable to look at for too long, but more times than not it’s disturbingly easier to relate to than most of the shit we get force feed on the tube in the first place.
In Round One we saw Tyson on Jimmy Kimmel Live!; Tyson uttering profound quotables; Tyson knocking out all comers; Tyson in the movies; and Tyson with Eddie Murphy and The Fresh Prince. And now, by popular demand, comes “I Think I Can Beat Mike Tyson (Second Round KO)”…
Rapper Canibus enlists a soft-spoken Mike Tyson on this diss track/video aimed at LL Cool J. Though it proved to be a tight track, neither career was ever the same. Now go “eat, eat, eat, eat emcess” and enjoy the show.
It’s the Jedi Mind Tricks providing the backdrop as Tyson delivers the pain on this highlight reel featuring monster punches and ballerina-esque moves in the ring.
Following up on a scene from “Round 1″, Tyson chokes out Robert Downey Jr., calls him a “cum drinker,” and gets hit on by a white chick all at the same time in the 1999 movie Black and White.
As a reminder of just how much a piece of shit Don King is, witness Spike Lee’s Mike Tyson and Don King. One of the rare times Tyson actually makes any sense is captured here, when he says “we’re not anti-white, we’re just pro-black.”
And before we close this edition out, an encore of Mike Tyson interview moments.
In closing, Dan Meth envisions a world where the 8-bit Nintendo Tyson has brunch with a group of hipsters.
