John Fury, a 55-year-old British boxer who is the father of Tyson Fury has declared in a short video that he wanted a piece of the “Baddest Man on the Planet” in the ring as Mike Tyson, an Iconic undisputed American heavyweight champion, is set for a return to the ring for a charity fight.
Recently, Mike was seen in a short Instagram video training with Rafael Cordeiro, legendary MMA trainer, hitting the mitts swiftly and hard which shows that the Iron Mike never loses his boxing prowess.
Ever since Mike Tyson, now 53, made his intention public to return to the ring for charity and exhibition bout only, he has been receiving challenges from different angles with John Fury being the latest boxer to challenge Iron Mike to a fight.
Williams, Rugby union legend wants a piece of Mike and $1 million has been reportedly offered for the fight. Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship has also offered £16m to have Mike Tyson in the ring.
“Mike’s making a comeback; I don’t value my life at 50p but let me tell you something, Mike Tyson is worth doing charity with,” John Fury said.
“He’s a proper king of a champion, a proper man tried and tested, not some doorman who I used to practice on as a 14-year-old boy. If I didn’t knock out four or five a night when I was 15 I was disappointed,” he added.
“I’ll fight Mike Tyson, he’s making a comeback. I know he mentions my boy’s name every five minutes, but here I am, John Fury is hiding from no man, not even the king of the old men Mike Tyson.
“I will fight Mike Tyson; I will not be denied, I will die in a fight.”
