Mike Tyson admits he could be pressured to make boxing comeback aged 56

Mike Tyson has admitted that there's a chance he could find himself getting back in the ring for one last bout at the age of 56.

The legendary heavyweight champion hasn't been training particularly intensely since his 2020 comeback bout with Roy Jones Jr, which ended in a draw. But the bout was one of boxing's all-time biggest pay-per-view events and has meant that other offers are never far from the discussion despite his age.

Tyson will turn 57 this summer, and has entertained talks about potentially fighting the likes of Jake or Logan Paul, as well as stepping in for a trilogy with his old rival Evander Holyfield. But no deal has ever materialised, and he will only begin taking training seriously when people with the mega money he requires arrive at the table.
