Knockout

Knockout will take an unflinching look at the life of legendary boxer and cultural icon Mike Tyson. Known as the youngest heavyweight champion in history (at the age of 20 in 1986), Tyson's legacy extends far beyond the ropes of the boxing ring, cementing him as one of the most compelling and polarizing figures of our time. From his meteoric rise as the "Baddest Man on the Planet" to his personal struggles – including a period of incarceration and widely publicized struggles (i.e. finances, substance abuse, in-ring controversies) – and eventual redemption, this series will explore the man behind the gloves.
