Legendary boxer Mike Tyson has sought help from online community, asking them to pick the former heavyweight boxing champions' 10 best knockout, in order to help actor Jamie Foxx, who will be reprising the role of the boxer in a Martin Scorsese-directed film.

Tyson uploaded a 57-minute video that featured all 44 of his knockouts, beginning nearly 30 years ago on March 6, 1985 with his first-round knock-out of Hector Mercedes.

Confirming that he is doing the Mike Tyson story, Foxx said that this would be the first boxing movie that Martin Scorsese has done since Raging Bull, the Daily Telegraph reported.

 

Foxx further said that Tyson told him that he was happy these days as he has got no money these days, claiming that no one could take anything from him anymore.

The movie is currently at a pre-pre-production stage.
