Lynnwood, Washington-based clothing accessories giant Zumiez, introduced their new range of casual tees. For the product, they collaborated with none other than boxing great and time-honored fan favorite, Mike Tyson.

And the day they picked to introduce the t-shirts and the model? Boxing Day. The message on the post Zumiez shared earlier today read, “Celebrate Boxing Day in style with the @miketyson collection at @zumiez.” Interestingly, the news follows the recent update about the youngest heavyweight champion in boxing history joining hands with Snapchat. The instant messaging app developers introduced a stream of ‘Spotlight Challenges.’ Reportedly, winners could take home prizes worth over $150,000.

Mike Tyson: The name is enough

The reports of the former heavyweight champion’s new tie-up sent a lot of fans into a frenzy. Many of them poured their hearts out in the comments section. It was apparent that most were mesmerized by how ‘Iron’ Mike still looked so good.

For instance, the following user highlighted that Mike Tyson is the only person who can wear clothing with his picture on it. More significantly, nobody can disrespect him. “Mike is the only one who can wear himself on his shirt and still be respected,” the user said. This follower seemed awestruck by Tyson and the beautifully designed tees. The craving to purchase was so strong that they felt like going ahead with a purchase through the clothing line’s portal. The follower said, “Damn, this goes hard. Something id actually buy from zoom zoomz.”

Then the following user also echoed similar sentiments. While highlighting the need to buy a few items, they pointed out how they were still using some of the products they bought more than a year ago. “Definitely gonna have to cop some merch! I got the Mike Tyson tank Full Send dropped about a year ago. Still wear it to this day! I love it, & so do the people when I wear it, @miketyson,” the user stated.

According to the following user, the former heavyweight champion appeared more like a middleweight boxer: “Tyson looks like a middleweight right now.” Finally, the following fan just couldn’t prevent themselves from stating the kind of legendary status Mike Tyson has achieved. They said, “Mr. Tyson is an absolute legend.”

Certainly, countless fans rejoice as major brands elevate their worth by collaborating with an iconic figure like Mike Tyson. Iron Mike’s life, marked by significant highs and lows, serves as an inspiration to many, particularly for the diverse roles he effortlessly assumes. Not too long ago, he added another feather to his cap — that of a trainer.

Filling in the training legacy

In his long and cherished boxing career, Mike Tyson finally checked an unchecked box. Not long ago, that appeared prominently on his resume. For a boxer who received training from some of the most brilliant boxing thinkers and reached the summit of the sport, ‘Iron’ Mike had yet to accept the role of a trainer.

Finally, this year, he managed to tick that box as well. He trained former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou to such an extent that he ended up giving a reigning heavyweight champion a run for his money. Fans would be expecting many more such miracles from the sport’s youngest-ever heavyweight champion.
