He didn't cry the whole time, the only time he really did was when he was talking about his kids, or talking about his relationship with Cus D'Amato.
You have to remember this is Oprah, not Jerry Springer, so Oprah was trying to show the more human side to Mike.
He obviously had a hard trying to explain his feelings about a lot of issues, but he was also very honest about a lot of his demons.
He said that he wanted to sock Robin Givens when she started spouting a bunch of lies during that interview with Barbara Walters. He admitted that he was never faithful in his past marriages.
He admitted that at the time, he didn't regret biting off a piece of Holyfield's ear, and that his public apology wasn't sincere.
He basically came off as a guy who's trying to put his demons to rest, and trying to learn to live a better life, because he said that he was tired of failing, and didn't want to live life as a failure anymore. But you can see it's still a struggle for him.
I haven't seen the documentary Tyson yet, but I do want to check it out, because they were showing clips from it, and it looks good.
