Mike Tyson and James Toback joined the show to discuss the documentary Tyson they made together.

Tyson said that the controversial film was very true to him and he doesn't regret anything he said. Tyson seems very open about where his life is right now.

Tyson said looking back on his life, he's not sure how he survived some tough situations.

Tyson also looked back on his boxing days and said that he wanted to get fights over quickly because he thought that made him look better.

Toback recalled his most memorable moment from Tyson's hey-day. Toback pointed to Tyson's fight against Trevor Berbick. Toback said Berbick was considered a scary guy. And Berbick was terrified by Tyson.

Tyson said boxing is suffering right now because there's no dynamic star in the heavyweight champion. "When you're the heavyweight champion of the world, people should know your name," Tyson said.
