Mike Tyson: The Knockout will air on ABC between 20.00 and 22.00 EDT on Tuesday May 25, with the second two-hour episode airing at the same time the following Tuesday.
Disney-owned US streamer Hulu holds next-day on-demand rights to the doc which will feature footage from new interviews with Tyson as well as his former opponents and supporters.
