The actress was only a year older than Rihanna is now when Mike Tyson assaulted her
LOS ANGELES -- Mike Tyson was made of iron, Hasim Rahman was known as "The Rock." Chris Arreola? He's a jelly donut with legs. With pectorals that sag to his midsection and a midsection that sags to the floor, Arreola hardly cuts an imposing figure. And he knows it.
In Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds" (out Friday) -- a simultaneous tribute to and deconstruction of war movies and '40s noir -- a special unit of Jewish-American soldiers is sent behind enemy lines to spread shock and awe among German troops in Nazi-occupied France.

I have never had many feelings about Andy Roddick. It always seemed to me that there are athletes you love and athletes you despise, athletes you respect and athletes you fear, athletes who can turn games into beautiful events and athletes who can turn your stomach inside out because you so badly want them to lose. And these are the ones you remember.

For children of the '80s, there's never been an athlete who captured the imagination quite like Mike Tyson. It wasn't just his electric peek-a-boo style or arresting combination of strength, hand speed, accuracy and coordination; it was his unprecedented air of indestructibility. But deep within history's youngest heavyweight champion laid a fear that's the undercurrent of James Toback's riveting new documentary, Tyson, out in theaters Friday after a hearty reception on the festival circuit.
It's probably fair to say that no one goes to a Seann William Scott movie in anticipation of anything more than a few laughs and a quick exit. And on that score, "Role Models" doesn't disappoint.
In the five years I have spent covering boxing, I have had a few of what I like to call "cringe moments." I cringed when greedy promoters paraded a battered and broken Mike Tyson into the ring for fight after fight, even though he was little more than a shell of his former self. And he had a history of biting people.

And so, having finally attracted a little mainstream attention again, has boxing squandered another opportunity. With all eyes upon the sport -- well, more eyes than usual -- it produced an event of not much drama, little excitement and no satisfying conclusion. And even for somebody who found the semispectacle satisfying, there was no possibility of another one with even this much promise. The winner immediately announced his retirement, and the loser, who doesn't fight much anyway (or win much anymore), was ambivalent about his future in the ring.

For decades professional boxers have entered the ring to a variety of different music. Frank Sinatra was the artist of choice for Bernard Hopkins, while Mike Tyson preferred anything by DMX. Their choice of music was purposeful -- intimidation was usually a big factor, as a song effectively served as a first punch -- but rarely did it have a purpose. That is, of course, unless you are Rafael Marquez.
