Tyson teases return in training video: 'I'm back'
Mike Tyson is returning. In what capacity is yet to be determined.
The 53-year-old proclaimed "I'm back" at the end of an intense training video released on Monday.
While no fight has been officially announced, Evander Holyfield said Sunday that he'd be open to a third bout with Tyson for charity. Holyfield, 57, released his own training video on Wednesday, which also ended with the words, "I'm back."
Are you ready? The moment you've all been waiting for...
