"Mike" an original bio series from "Hulu" is one interesting and entertaining watch if you like and enjoy sports, as I remember growing up with Iron Mike as he stamped his fists and impacted culture.

The series episodes explores and showcases his tough upbringing on the mean streets, and how he was rescued by Cus D' Amato and trained to become a fighting monster, along the way it was interesting to see how Mike developed love and trust.

However later his marriage to actress Robin Givens and signing with promoter Don King you see how Mike became their easy meal ticket, as he became world champion.

Only things would worsen for the bad man on the planet after he encountered beauty queen Desiree, as the jail experience would also transform Mike. Finally in a gross and barbaric manner Mike became a cannibal. Overall well done series that looks at Mike's wild and somewhat tragic life and career, a watch for any boxing or Tyson fan.
