Viewing Notes

This was an off the quick pick Blu-Ray shelf and it’s a decent documentary altho really needs another voice (other than just Tyson). Still very interesting to watch & listen to this man now that he’s no longer the monster in the ring. Sad to think what he could’ve become w/the right people around him.
