In Part Three of our Mike Tyson Career Profile, we cover one of the most pivotal stretches of his life: his first year as a professional fighter.

Bursting onto the scene in 1985, Tyson racked up knockout after knockout, showcasing the devastating speed and power that would make him a global sensation. But behind the highlight reels and rapid ascent, Tyson was also dealing with a profound personal loss—the passing of his legendary mentor and trainer, Cus D’Amato.

This episode explores how Tyson channeled his grief into the ring, using boxing as both an outlet and a way to honor Cus’s vision. We’ll walk through the stories of his early opponents, the growing media frenzy around the young phenom, and the intense buildup to his shot at the heavyweight title.
