Many may remember the fantastic job Jamie Foxx did in the film Ray, based on the life of Ray Charles and a film about Tyson could be just as epic. The film is still in the works and Tyson has said it’s most likely a year after from production. I hope this happens, I’ll be in the theater opening day.

Do you think Jamie Foxx could play the role of Mike Tyson well? Stay tuned to HHS1987 for more information on the film.
