Mike Tyson nearing return to ring, show off photo of new physique

Heavyweight boxing legend, Mike Tyson has proved in new photos his readiness to make a surprising return to the ring, fifteen years after his retirement.

The former champion has undergone fitness trainings in his bid to return for a charity fight, training alongside UFC legend, and current ONE Championship star, Vitor Belfort and combat coach Rafael Cordeiro.

The 53-years old had ballooned to a whopping 27st after retiring in 2005 but has since lost 10st to get himself back into terrific shape.

Yesterday Tyson revealed that he will announce his comeback fight next week with just the contract to iron out.

His opponent remains unknown but there has been talk of a trilogy of fights with old rival Evander Holyfield.

Prospects of a renewed rivalry with Holyfield will be an exciting one for fans, after their last match ended in a DQ win for Holyfield after Tyson shockingly bit off a chunk of his rival’s ear.

Fellow ex-heavyweight champ Shannon Briggs also recently claimed he has agreed a deal to fight the Baddest Man on the Planet.
