Did society just collectively forget that Mike Tyson is a rapist? Why is he still so liked? Also, fellow adjudicated rapist James Toback directed this, which explains why this has to be one of the most misogynistic documentaries I've ever seen.

This brought nothing new to the Mike Tyson story. Quite dull.
