Released just a few months before Donnie Yen’s final Ip Man movie hit cineplexes in 2019, straight-to-VOD flick Ip Man and Four Kings stars Michael Tong as the eponymous grandmaster, who gets wrongfully accused of murder. Ip Man is framed by a rival martial arts school with shady foreign backers in director Fu Liwei’s low-budget fight fest. To prove his innocence, Ip Man has to take down the heads of the prostitution, alcohol, gambling, and catering syndicates, box a.k.a. the Four Heavenly Kings. It’s a short film at just 71 minutes, but trust us, there are countless better ways you could spend that amount of time.
Zhilei Zhang (Chinese: 张志磊; pinyin: Zhāng Zhìlěi; born May 2, 1983) is a Chinese professional boxer. He held the World Boxing Organization (WBO) interim heavyweight title between 2023 and March 2024. As of June 2024, Zhang is ranked as the world’s fifth-best active heavyweight by The Ring magazine.
Rodney is a success story in a totally different way to his brother. He said: “I’ve had guys come up to me in the supermarket and at the Burger King near the hospital and say ‘thank you’ for talking to them. They’ll say: ‘Now I want to be a doctor or physician’s assistant. I want to help people too.’
Former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson’s highly anticipated fight against Jake Paul is rescheduled for November 15 in Arlington, Texas. The sanctioned eight-round match against Paul, 27, will stream on Netflix and mark Tyson’s first competitive bout since June 2005.
Although his drug arrest was a one-off, Tyson has since discussed his alcohol and drug abuse and ongoing recovery. “I’m on the verge of dying because I’m a vicious alcoholic,” he said at a 2013 press conference, also admitting that he had been lying about his sobriety to family and friends. Tyson also admitted to abusing cocaine in his 2013 autobiography Undisputed Truth.
Tyson’s tattoo artist, S. Victor Whitmill, has filed a lawsuit against Warner Bros. Entertainment, Inc. to stop the movie’s release and gain compensation for copyright infringement. Whitmill may have a case against the studio, although Chief Judge Catherine D. Perry Tuesday denied the request for a preliminary injunction stopping the movie’s release. The movie will debut Thursday, but the case will continue.
Also in September 1988, Givens and Tyson appeared in an interview with Barbara Walters in which Givens described her marriage as “pure hell.” Shortly thereafter, she announced that she was filing for divorce. Tyson countersued for a divorce and an annulment, beginning an ugly court process. On February 14, 1989, their split became official.
On Mike Tyson’s rib cage, he has a tattoo of Che Guevara. He claims that he chose this tattoo because, “Che Guevara is an incredible individual. He had so much, but sacrificed it all for the benefit of other people.”
As an amateur, he was highly regarded by American promoters by 2009 after winning a silver medal at the 2008 Olympics and bronze medals at the 2007 and 2009 World Championships. His career stalled from 2009 to 2019, however, by a combination of his belated release from the Chinese boxing authorities to turn professional, the managerial and legal fiasco of two successive fringe promotional companies, and his visa problems. He could not line up high-profile matches until he signed Matchroom Sport in 2020 at 37 years of age. Zhang considered his fight with Jerry Forrest in 2021 to be the landmark moment of his career until that point.
But it wasn’t until years later that Tyson discussed the tattoo while chatting with sportscaster Jim Grey on his podcast that Tyson revealed his reasons behind getting the tattoo. When asked by Grey why he got the tribal tattoo Tyson replied, “I don’t know. I was supposed to do it earlier. Put this tattoo, I wanted a tattoo on my face. I was gonna put a bunch of hearts on my face, there’s a bunch of little hearts and my friends are like, no I am not gonna do anything whack like that.”

Before arriving at the strip club, Stu steals the spotlight right away: he desperately chugs a whole bottle outside a liquor store, only to hurl it back out seconds later. This seems to make him even more stubborn on going all out. Indeed, he enacts his desires at their first stop. Phil and Alan get a private show from two of the strippers, but they seem turned off by the experience in comparison to Stu, who falls in love at first sight when he meets his soon-to-be-wife Jade (Heather Graham). His instant crush on the stripper is undeniable. He empties his wallet on her underwear while she performs for him and, as if that weren’t enough, he is shown pulling his infamous tooth out with a heavy pair of pliers. He really seems to struggle with the incisor, as several different photos and expressions from his friends and Jade help corroborate.
