American former boxer Mike Tyson live an open war using the audiovisual platform ‘first’ for the series ‘MIKE’, an eight-episode spin-off about his life that will premiere in two weeks, and accused the producers of ‘stealing’ his story and being racist.
‘Hulu’ premiere is just two weeks away ‘Mike’ and in recent days have added serious accusations by Tyson, who through his social networks branded the American platform as “the streaming version of a slave”.
“Don’t let ‘Hulu’ fool you. I don’t support your story about my life. This isn’t 1822. This is 2022. They stole my story and didn’t pay me,” Tyson recently wrote on Instagram.
And he ended his message by suggesting that the directors of ‘Hulu’ offer him a racist treatment and only see him as someone to be exploited.
Previously, Tyson published a photo with the British Dan Whitepresident of the UFC, accompanied by a text in which he assured that ‘Hulu’ offered “millions” to the businessman to promote this series, something he denied.
“‘Hulu’ tried to pay my sister Dana White millions without offering me a single dollar to promote her slave version of my story. She turned it down because she values friendship and treating people with dignity,” he wrote.
Additionally, the former boxer wrote last week on his Twitter account that “heads will roll”, referring to the “robbery” that he believes he suffered.
On its website, ‘Hulu’ is promoting ‘MIKE’ as a series that “explores the tumultuous ups and downs of Mike Tyson’s professional and personal life.”
It further highlighted that the series was an “unauthorized and unrestricted interpretation” of Tyson’s life.
Tyson, who was the youngest world champion in the heavyweight category in 1986, created a company in 2016 that sells all kinds of marijuana-related products, from edibles to “premium” crops.
