Mike Tyson is undoubtedly a blueprint of success for several youngsters, those who envision making it big in the sport of boxing. Although Tyson has tried hands-on several other things in his life, boxing will remain the prime reason for his global stardom. Meanwhile, the sport continues to be a part of Tyson’s life even to this day.

Aged 55, ‘The Baddest Man On The Planet’ can potentially re-appear in the ring. Having performed commendably on his returning exhibition bout in 2020, Tyson sparked rumors of being active in the trend. He looked exceptionally well for someone of his age against Roy Jones Jr. That said, Tyson recently posted a picture of him donning the boxing gloves, and advised his followers to reclaim their true strength.

Well, what made it even better was Tyson’s son, Amir J. Tyson, showering all his love and faith in the former world heavyweight champion. Amir Tyson took to the comment section and wrote, “keep pushing dad”, which was quite a sight to witness for the fans.

Tyson’s son Amir is at a distance from the boxing action. But he is a self-made millionaire, who is also a successful entrepreneur. The CEO of Debonaire attire, Amir Tyson, apparently lives a lavish life and doesn’t shy away from touting it all over the Internet. His father Mike Tyson has also taken a serious plunge into e-investments and several financial deals. Besides, in-ring appearances can continue to offer big economical digits for ‘Iron’ Mike.

Was Mike Tyson Adopted?

As per reports, Tyson was expected to bag a hefty $10 million from his scrap against Roy Jones Jr. But he blamed the organizers for underpaying him, citing almost no chances of his resurrection into pugilism. But the future can still store something for him.

Despite his age, Tyson can still be a PPV attraction and has grabbed call-outs from several directions. Logan Paul pitched himself for a fight against Tyson, which never came close to fruition. Meanwhile, Shannon Briggs and Evander Holyfield had also expressed interest in facing ‘Iron’ Mike. Thus, Tyson can pocket millions by stepping through the ropes.

Furthermore, Tyson also seems busy with his activities outside the boxing domain. He will reportedly appear in an Indian movie titled Liger, and that is just one of the many things Tyson is currently associated with. It’s safe to say that ‘Iron’ Mike still relishes the stardom that he had seen in his prime years of boxing, and only a few of his time could remain relevant for such a long period.
