Mike Tyson’s Punch Out Documentary
02/27/09 - Hilarious
“A new documentary titled Punched Out!!: The Mike Tyson Story, which follows the legendary boxer’s career from his debut as a challenger to the infamous DREAM FIGHT!! against Little Mac in 1987, will premiere at the 2009 SXSW Film Festival. Ten of Tyson’s most well-known opponents are interviewed in the film, with Von Kaiser, Soda Popinski, Don Flamenco, King Hippo, and others reminiscing about the boxer’s career. “Tyson was the best,” said Mario, the referee who officiated every WVBA boxing match ever. “Most challengers couldn’t even land a punch on him. They’d be knocked to the ground by a single blow, TKO’d within the first round, and forced to travel back to Hollywood to fight Super Macho Man again to qualify.” w/ photo
