Yesterday it was announced that Mike Tyson, 54, had signed on to box Roy Jones Jr., 51, in an eight round exhibition match. The spectacle is set for September 12th and will be broadcast on Triller.
After the news became official, ‘Iron’ Mike took to twitter to share a promo video for the event, along with a succinct announcement of ‘I. AM. BACK.’
In the 80s and 90s Tyson was one of the most feared combat sports athletes on the planet. He reigned as the undisputed world heavyweight champion from 1987 to 1990, holding WBA, WBC and IBF titles.
