Boxing legend Mike Tyson has given fans an update ahead of his comeback fight. ‘Iron Mike’ will fight fellow legend Roy Jones Jr in an eight-round exhibition fight on November 28, 2020. The two will compete for the ‘Frontline Battle Belt’ on a card that will also include the likes of Badou Jack and Nate Robinson. However, there have been questions about the health of the two fighters.

Many critics have been questioning the decision to let the legends return to the ring. Despite this, Tyson has shut down any doubters with his latest revelation. Speaking to Peter Rosenberg on ESPN, the legend was asked about him never being knocked out as compared to Jones Jr. He said, “Yea we’re different you know. My brain… So, they did a scan on my brain for the fight and stuff. He [the doctor] looked at so many fighters’ brains and he couldn’t believe that I had such a preserved brain. For a fighter.”

Thus, the 54-year-old is suggesting that he is in peak condition to enter the ring come November 28. He is doing his best to reassure the boxing community it is safe for him to fight again.
