One of life's simple rules should to be to never anger a former heavyweight champion of the world, no less Mike Tyson. And yet here we are.
Iron Mike is on a warpath with streaming service Hulu, who have allegedly produced a series on his life without his consent, nor without offering him a modicum of compensation.
Taking to social media Friday evening, and again on Saturday, Tyson embarked on a verbal undressing of Hulu, accusing them of creating a 'slave master take over story' of his life.
Tyson's first post on the matter came via Instagram, thanking his friend and UFC president, Dana White for his refusal to be involved in Mike.
'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 explained.
'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.'
