The Mike Tyson boxing return news has been hitting the headlines for the past few weeks and it continues to grab attention after Mike Tyson posted another clip of his training session this week. Mike Tyson is spotted throwing deadly combinations at his trainer Rafael Cordeiro as the former world champion steps up his return to the ring. Before ending the video, Mike Tyson utters the words, “I am back”, leaving boxing fans buzzing with excitement.

A few weeks ago, Mike Tyson’s trainer Rafael Cordeiro claimed that the former heavyweight champion could step in the ring against anyone with just six months of training. However, the Mike Tyson boxing return is reportedly going to see a different fate since Tyson is coming out of retirement only for a four-round exhibition fight to raise money for charity. Though Tyson is still unaware of his opponent, names such as former rival Evander Holyfield, ex-rugby player Sonny Bill, and current WBC champion Tyson Fury’s have been floated for Mike Tyson's return.
