Boxing legend Mike Tyson was not a fan of Hulu’s biopic on his life. The series featured award-winning actor Trevante Rhodes playing the role of the former champion himself. However, according to Iron Mike, this series was a false portrayal of his life.

Initially, Tyson was skeptical before the series was released and claimed that it was made without his consent. Despite that, the show premiered on Hulu and received a mixed reception from fans and critics. Following this Iron Mike doubled down on his criticism of the show even after watching it.

Tyson unhappy about potrayal of his household in Hulu Biopic

In an appearance on Angie Martinez’s podcast, Tyson stated that the show was inaccurate and made his childhood home look good although that was not the case.

“They did a documentary on me and Hulu and when I was a little kid they made me look so good. My house was so clean and wow oh man I said this is so full of sh*t” he said.

Moreover, he added that his household was nothing like what was portrayed, and his household belonged to a rough working class neighbourhood . ”
