In three weeks, the former world boxing champion Tyson will usher in his first game after 15 years of retirement, what is the current status of the once "world's worst man"?
On the 5th, Tyson's Brazilian coach Rafael Cordeiro posted a video on social media showing himself and Tyson's training. As soon as the video was released, it caused a heated discussion in the industry, and for the 54-year-old, "Tyson's physical condition and technical ability were unexpectedly good."
In just a few seconds of video, you can see that Tyson's body shape has changed a lot from before, and he has also improved his speed, punching and dodging in one go. Although it can't be the same as the heyday, the aura is still there.
Seeing this, netizens couldn't help but praise, "Beast mode is on!" "He's still that champion!"
At the same time, the video dynamic also attracted a number of boxing professional players to come to the scene, and the "little fans" have moved the small bench and waited for the comeback debut of Big Brother.
According to the plan, Tyson will play an eight-legged exhibition match in California on November 28 with another former boxing champion, Roy Jones Jr., on November 28 local time. The former is 54 years old, the latter is 51 years old, in the eyes of boxing fans, this is a battle of feelings, and some people call it a "dream duel".
But no matter what the outside world thinks, Tyson said he is definitely going to move. "I'm excited right now," Tyson said at a pre-match press conference, "it's something I've been doing since I was 13 and I'm well prepared now." <b>My goal is to play with the strongest will of my life, to knock my opponent down, and that's it. </b>”
On the other hand, Jones, who swept the boxing titles in four divisions (middleweight, super middleweight, light heavyweight and heavyweight), although he did not show the "hostility" of Tyson, he said that he would definitely enjoy it and enjoy the game against his idol.
"Have you ever fought Tyson?" It's the most asked question of my career," Jones said, "and now I don't have to give a negative answer, and I'm glad I got this opportunity [with Tyson]." ”
"I've always wanted to try to duel him, how would it feel if he punched me, can I dodge it?" How long can I hold out? Can he dodge my attacks? November 28th, wait and see. Jones continued.
It is worth noting that because the two are not young, the outside world is generally worried about the safety of the two, after all, in the boxing ring, the fist does not have long eyes.
UFC star "Predator" Francis Nagano is one of them, who said in an interview that he does not want Tyson to return. "I don't think he needs to prove anything anymore. Maybe it's just boring or just to have some fun, which is understandable. But he's not young anymore, so I'm only worried about his safety. ”
However, yesterday's video has proved that Tyson has been eager to try this game and has no idea of ending it at all.
His opponent, Jones, also expressed his opinion early last month, <b>"I love boxing, and if I die for boxing, I will die happily." I do have other goals to achieve, but if I did go down that path, I wouldn't have any complaints. ”</b>
Russia Today pointed out that Tyson's plan does not stop at this game, and in the future, he will participate in organizing more similar "legendary battles", raising funds in the form of exhibition matches and reaching out to those in need.
In 2012, Tyson founded the Mike Tyson Cares Foundation, whose slogan is "Give Kids a Chance to Struggle, and aims to fund institutions that help children from broken families.
"I'm going to do that, I'm going to help a lot of people, and I want my story to be legendary."
Born on June 30, 1966 in Brooklyn, New York City, Mike Tyson became the world's youngest heavyweight boxer at the age of 20. In his previous career, Tyson achieved an impressive record of 50 wins, 6 losses and 44 knockouts, and is recognized as one of the best boxers in the world.
However, his career also ended prematurely due to his personal problems, including drug use and rape, which led him to jail many times.
On June 11, 2005, Tyson made his final game, announcing his retirement after losing to Kevin McBride.
