A Manchester lad from Irish Traveller stock, born premature weighing just a pound at birth, Tyson (named after his father�s boxing hero) grew up to become one of the most unlikely heavyweight champions in history. This 'dream come true' soon turned to nightmare, however, as alcohol and cocaine abuse took hold and Tyson was stripped of his titles. What followed was the darkest moment of his life � detailed in this book for the first time � in which he came within seconds of ending everything. An unflinching autobiography from the greatest boxer of our time and a man who has demonstrated strength of a very different kind by conquering his demons.
