I was able to see a sneak preview of TYSON, followed by a q+a with director James Toback. He explained that in trying to explain/show the psychology of Tyson, he drew from his Freudian psychologist (an experience when he was in his twenties), and it's apparent in the film because he keeps going back to Tyson's early childhood recollections... and he portrays it as the basis of Tyson's madness. James defined 'crazy' as having multiple personalities, and used triple split screens of spliced interviews showing Tyson contradict himself.
James said that when Tyson watched the film that it was the first time he understood why people were afraid of him.
If you're interested in human behavior, I highly recommend this film.
