It’s Halloween night! As the entirety of America is all set to don their costumes to celebrate the iconic holiday, Mike Tyson posts throwback pictures from last year to remind fans of a notion that he strongly abides by. This year, the festive season comes with a lot more glory than any other for him. He reaps the benefit of having mentored Francis Ngannou, a fighter who showed the world his impressive boxing prowess recently.

On the 28th of October, the Cameroonian fighter went head-to-head against WBC heavyweight champion, Tyson Fury. In his maiden boxing fight, he lost through a split decision. However, despite the loss, the way he went about his business in the ring impressed the boxing realm. A huge credit for such prowess goes to Iron Mike as he stepped in as his mentor ahead of the fight. In his Halloween wishes this year, he mirrored the teachings he might have imbibed into Ngannou ahead of his intense matchup.
