When the world of boxing looks back at its history, Mike Tyson remains at the forefront with his name as a flag bearer. His jabs still echoing in the Hall of Fame reflect the legacy he’s left behind in the ring. Such is the story of Mike Tyson, a fighter from the margins who emerged through it all and personified global domination. With a stellar record of 58 bouts, 50 pushing through magnificent victories, his boxing prowess becomes the textbook for generations to come.

But things went downhill as he inched toward the last few years of his boxing career. A collapse like none, the Evander Holyfield ear-biting controversy marked it for him. A few years later, he filed for bankruptcy after having amassed a worth of $400 million. With everything going against him, there came a point where hanging his gloves was the only way out. But now, almost two decades from then, he still holds on to the residues of being a fighter.

Yes, Mike Tyson is still in his perfect shape

When the dust had settled on his bankruptcy, ‘Iron Mike’ began rebuilding himself and his brand right from scratch. Today, after having reached the pinnacles, or at least close to it he has not dissociated himself from what earned him the name he held. Taking to his Instagram, the former heavyweight champion posted a picture of his physique that reminds folks of the times he dominated the ring, captioning the image, “Still got it.”

Fans chimed in with complete agreement. One said, “He would destroy any of us even in his 90s.”
