Mike Tyson looks SCARY in newly released training video
Based on what has recently been released to social media in a new video, Mike Tyson still retains scary punching power. The former world heavyweight boxing champion announced his return to the sport earlier this year. This has garnered mixed reactions, with UFC president Dana White pleading for Tyson to stay retired. Many fans have been excited, though, as Tyson remains one of the biggest names in all of combat sports, despite issues towards the end of his career.
However, Tyson’s form is undeniably sharp, something he showcased in the video below. Despite soon turning 54 years old, the ex champion seems to retain enough power to knock out most potential opponents.

As of now no opponent has been officially announced for Tyson’s return. However fighters from the likes of Tito Ortiz to Shannon Briggs have been reported to be in talks for a bout with Tyson.
The biggest talking point as of late, though, has been a potential superfight with none other than UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones. Tyson brought up Jones in relation to talks of fighter pay in a recent podcast. The former boxing champ suggested that a bout between him and Jones would net the latter the huge paycheck he desires.
This led to Jones actually calling Tyson out for one bout in boxing and one in MMA. Jones even guaranteed that he wouldn’t break any of Tyson’s bones as a sign of respect, in what seems like a backhanded show of admiration.
