Tupac's Last Night With Mike Tyson Highlited On ESPN's '30 For 30'

[yak pac fatal]

(AllHipHop News) ESPN Films has announced a new season of their series 30 for 30, which will feature four new films, including a documentary on the night Tupac Shakur was shot multiple times in Las Vegas.

ESPN has tapped filmmakers like Ron Shelton, John Singleton, Steve Nash and Alex Gibney to create the Fall series of 30 for 30.

In addition to stories on sports legends like Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova (Unmatched), George M. Steinbrenner (The House of Steinbrenner) and Steve Nash (Into the Wind), the series will highlight the night Tupac Shakur was gunned down (One Night in Vegas).

One Night in Vegas will focus on the night of September 7th, 1996, the evening Tupac Shakur attended the Mike Tyson Vs. Bruce Seldon fight.

The story will delve into the friendship between Mike Tyson and Tupac Shakur, who were supposed to attend the after party together to celebrate Tyson’s first round “knockout” of Bruce Seldon.

One Night in Vegas was directed by Reggie “Rock” Bythewood (Notorious) with Mike Tyson’s full cooperation.

The documentary is slated to air on September 7, 2010, 14-years-to the date of Shakur’s shooting.

I aint ever seen any footage of them together at the Seldon fight. I aint even seen any pictures of Pac at ringside. Like you say the fight that pac and tyson were hugging was Tyson-Bruno.

 

[Snowman]

1 artcle i read from the shooting about a "shouting match ringside" Pac got into
I never figured out if that was just mis construed from Orlando in the lobby or was something different

[Ristol]

The 30 for 30 series is great. Loved Jordan Rides the Bus last week. I'm looking forward to this one.

[Ms L]

Damn it I missed it...Does anybody know if will they replay it?

 

[Ristol]

They replay it, I'm sure. Try ESPN2 late at night either tomorrow or the next day.

Morris: I wasn't sure about that but I had a suspicion. I'd certainly never heard that quality version either. Also, post more.

[soulja4death]

Yup Yup. Very nice. Thanks, waiting so long for this and I cannot believe I forgot to watch it. Thanks for link.

 

[Snowman]

this was a good special, i do want that lets get it on track. thats sounds HOTT, i like how they did parts of the show in a comic book feature.

 

[FroDawgg]

they will be releasing it on DVD as well as all the other films (don't know when, but the complete set comes out in december, so probably before then). it would be nice for it to include a bonus CD with the two tracks on there (or even on the DVD), as well as the "comic" part of it in comic book for. however, i doubt it will have either of these...it's just wishful thinking.
