Boxing legend Mike Tyson is looking for his latest knockout - a blockbuster Hollywood movie about his life. He must be running out of money from his huge drug habit. Iron Mike says he is well on his way with serious plans for a movie he will produce about his controversial and troubled life. And he is working hand-in-hand with Oscar winner Jamie Foxx, who plans to star as the former heavyweight champ in the movie.
“Jamie Foxx and I will be working together,” Tyson insisted. “He will play me in the film about my life. We already talked about it several times.” Didn’t Jamie Foxx used to make fun of Mike Tyson on the sketch comedy show, In Living Color, back in the 90s?
Meanwhile, the fighter also insists he is finally free of drugs for the first time - admitting he was never entirely sober, even when training for fights. “Even when I was training for a fight, there were no drugs, but I would drink,” he admitted. Cough Cough….yeah right.
But he also made it clear he was ready to turn around his life. “I had never been clean and sober my whole life. This is the first time.
“I’m tired of losing. I lost the trust of my family, my five kids.” This is the perfect example of wasted potential. He had it all! He was unstoppable! He pissed it all away and continues to fail in life.

Hi Mike
I have known of you for years and I have always like you even when people make you out to be a bad person.You have made many mistakes in your life and at lease you own up to your mistakes and face it. It’s easy to make a mistakes, but it can be hard to change that mistakes as long as you have GOD, YOUR CHILDREN, YOURSELF, and ME.(LOL). People makes mistakes and thats the way you learn, but the key is not to make the same mistakes.
I have this pray I say everyday to get though the day and it make me feel great and I wont let anyone take my joy away and you shouldn’t either.
This is the pray I say:GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY TO ACCEPT THE THINGES I CANNOT CHANGE, THE THINGS I CAN; AND WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE.
I just wanted to tell you I am very proud of you and I am glad you want to make a movie about life so you can tell your story .
