Ahead of his first professional fight since 2005, ‘Iron Mike’ looks to be in utterly sensational shape, despite being 58 years old, and even Paul admitted he is a ‘little scared’ after seeing Tyson’s physique.
Although Tyson’s comeback is surrounded by controversy, the 58-year-old has recently revealed that he is considering a ‘full comeback’ to professional boxing.
“Nothing will be excluded after I knock out Jake Paul. Listen, I’m taking this one fight, one person at a time. But if this one goes as well as I expect, then a full comeback is not off the table,” Tyson told Mail Online.
After being quizzed on whether he would like to fight the likes of Tyson Fury, Oleksandr Usyk, and Daniel Dubois, Tyson issued a cold warning.
“As I said, anything and everything would be included.”
Having said that, the 58-year-old will first see how he feels when he steps into the ring for the first time in four years as he looks to become the first fighter to knock out ‘The Problem Child’.
