Undisputed Truth: My Autobiography

Product Information

We are reminded that at the end of the day, no matter how high our social status is in this crazy world, love is what we all want.

His knockout-to-win percentage of 88% has been described by Sky Sports as “perhaps the most ferocious fighter to step into a professional ring”. It was fascinating, frank, crude, bitter-sweet, hilarious, inspiring, heartbreaking, candid, raw, account of his life. Apparently Sloman's opening move in tempting Tyson into this collaboration was to send a copy of Nietzsche's Ecce Homo to him while he was in prison.Unconvinced that he had been fairly beaten, one of those opponents, Mitch Green, high on angel dust, starts taunting Tyson who beats him up again in the street. Mike certainly cannot blame his mother for every mistake he’s made in life, and he’d probably be the first to admit that. He felt privileged because he was the Champ, had more than enough wealth and women were a part of that equation. I missed the one-man show but a friend reported that the best moment came when Tyson spotted a guy asleep in the front row.

If you have read some challenging authors and learned "the hearts of men" wouldn't you have a little more interest in skimming contracts that are worth hundreds of millions? The book offers an intimate glimpse into the life of a true American original, who despite hitting rock bottom, was able to overcome all odds. She stops him carving Mitch up with a steak knife ("I wasn't a vegan then") but being with Tyson or working for him could turn bad almost as quickly as fighting against him. Bullied as a boy in the toughest, poorest neighbourhood in Brooklyn, Tyson grew up to become one of the most thrilling and ferocious boxers of all time—and the youngest heavyweight champion ever.Spoiler alert: he worked his ass off for years as a teenager; his drive and discipline were undeniably formidable. His writing has enabled him to reach a wide range of audiences, allowing them to appreciate his story and life experiences in an entirely new way. Tyson played himself, naturally, a role he reprised for a one-man Broadway show that was then filmed by Spike Lee. Perhaps because of uneven editing, the book’s more compelling sections are intercut with repetitious mea culpas and perfunctory inventories of drug and sex binges. Along with Sloman, Tyson has created some truly impressive works of literature, which are sure to be remembered for years to come.
