HBO has passed on Mike Tyson's drama pilot Da Brick.
The cable network has opted not to go forward with the project, according to Deadline.
Based loosely on Tyson's own life, Da Brick was directed by Spike Lee (Do the Right Thing).
Newcomer John Boyega starred as aspiring young boxer Donnie, while Tyson executive produced alongside Lee, John Ridley, Jim Lefkowitz and Entourage creator Doug Ellin.
Earlier this month, HBO also declined to pick up Ellin's comedy pilot 40.
Starring Ed Burns, Michael Rapaport, Michael Imperioli and Adrian Pasdar, the show followed four long-time friends dealing with the trials of middle-age.
Other pilots still in the works at HBO include The Corrections starring Ewan McGregor and Maggie Gyllenhaal, and The Viagra Diaries, based on Barbara Rose Brooker's 2009 novel.
