Arrested multiple times by age 13, all hope seems lost for a young Mike Tyson. But a fateful encounter with boxing trainer Cus D'Amato changes his life.

After achieving a historic feat in the ring, Tyson is on top of the world — until a turbulent marriage, a devious promoter and vices throw off his game.

In the wake of defeat, Tyson sets out to reclaim his record-setting title, only to see a criminal conviction and prison sentence shatter his plans.

Life after the infamous "Bite Fight" forces Tyson to contend with a world beyond boxing, leading to a journey of retirement, reinvention and recovery.
