Not everyone dares to lace up the boxing gloves at 54 and get back inside the ring to fight. However, heavyweight great Mike Tyson is setting an example by doing the same. Breaking a hiatus of 15 years, Tyson will face former four-division champion Roy Jones Jr. in an eight-round exhibition clash on November 28.
That said, it’s just the beginning. Mike Tyson has vowed to accept more such fights in the future as he has rediscovered the itch to fight. Not only that, but he is also giving several other athletes a chance to revive their career at their dotage. Tyson’s Legends Only League has the motive to bring back several athletes of basketball, football, tennis, and other sports into the playing zone.

How many people give everything they have to give and say I gave it all up. That’s what I like to do. I am just fighting for my life”
The entire fanbase is excited about the upcoming fight, as it may find a place in the history books. Apart from Tyson vs Jones, the event will have several other matchups, including a fight between Jake Paul and Nate Robinson.
