If Mike Tyson is going to do something, he’s going to get all of the attention possible for it. Even if it’s something as inane as signing a contract.

The former heavyweight champion of the world recently signed on to make a return to the ring, facing off with fellow legend Roy Jones Jr. in an eight-round exhibition match on September 12th. The baddest man on the planet decided to sign the contract over a Zoom call, which TMZ caught some footage of - while Tyson was smoking a joint.

The 54-year-old Tyson (50-6, 2 NC, 44 KOs) hasn’t stepped into a boxing ring competitively since 2005, when he was stopped by Kevin McBride.
