Streaming service Hulu is scheduled to release a limited series on the life story of former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson, and “The Baddest Man on the Planet” has expressed his displeasure over it.
Tyson took to social media to criticize the platform, saying he does not approve of the series that they produced.
Mike Tyson: Hulu is Goliath
“Don’t let Hulu fool you. I don’t support their story about my life. It’s not 1822. It’s 2022. They stole my life and didn’t pay me, they stole his life story,” he posted on Instagram.
“To Hulu executives I’m just a n****r they can sell on the auction block.”

On Twitter, he wrote, “Hulu stole my story. They’re Goliath and I’m David. Heads will roll for this.”
Mike Tyson thanks Dana White
The 56-year-old also thanked UFC president Dana White for refusing to promote the unauthorized biography.
“Hulu tried to desperately pay my brother Dana White millions without offering me a dollar to promote their slave master take over story about my life,” he tweeted.
“He turned it down because he honors friendship and treating people with dignity. I’ll never forget what he did for me just like I’ll never forget what Hulu stole from me.”
