Synopsis | Taming Tyson (2011)
Somehow, you can never imagine Mike Tyson mellowing. This guy was once promoted as "the baddest man on the planet", so it's hard to imagine him morphing into a laid-back, clean-living family man with a passion for pigeons. But that's the Iron Mike Michael Usher met when he caught up with him at his home in Las Vegas in 2011. Of course, not everyone will buy the reformed Mike Tyson. And Michael admits he was apprehensive, especially when it was time to ask the hard questions.
