55-year-old Mike Tyson hasn’t lost his charm and ‘The Baddest Man on The Planet’ might have become the new fashion icon to the world now. After returning to the ring last year, Tyson appears to have found an interest in the fashion world, or at least the fashion giants have decided to bring him on board.

Famous Italian designer Roberto Cavalli needs no introduction to the fashion maniacs, a similar status that Mike Tyson holds amongst the combat sports fans. Hence, both celebrity professionals have joined hands, sending the entire entertainment world into a frenzy.

Mike Tyson recently posted a brief clip on social media, sporting a few of Roberto Cavalli‘s products. The video featured several more fashion models. While Tyson sported a few animal prints, he claimed to have represented fire with those accessories. In the caption of the post, Tyson wrote, “Be the Fire.”

While several boxers of his time have accepted retirement, Tyson is still making headlines for several reasons. Apart from a stellar return last year, ‘Iron’ has also remained relevant through his HotBoxin podcast. Besides, he is making some serious money with the popular cannabis business in California.

Following a successful stint against Roy Jones Jr. which was ruled as a draw, Tyson expressed his interest in re-appearing.

So, it’s evident that there will be several viable names available; if Tyson chooses to return. But he doesn’t need to fight any longer for legacy. As for money, another in-ring appearance would boost up Tyson’s net worth. But he is also making fat stacks of money by staying retired.
