Mike Tyson To Get $20 Million If He Comes Out Of Retirement

Boxing fans may get yet another treat of Mike Tyson in the ring after the former heavyweight champion was offered an eye-popping $20m to come out of retirement.
There are tons of fans out there who think it’s a good idea to fight Mike Tyson, and one particularly intrepid challenger is ready to put his money where the former champ’s fist might wind up.
“I think I know what we need to do to make this thing happen,” Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship president David Feldman told Bleacher Report, which reported that the organization is set to offer Mike Tyson more than $20 million to come out of retirement.
Tyson, 53, hasn’t fought in 15 years, but video of recent workouts showing Iron Mike training with the power and speed that once made him the most exciting fighter on Earth has renewed interest in what Tyson might be able to do now.
Tyson concluded one of those videos by throwing a barrage of hooks and uppercuts befoe ending with the line: “I’m back.”

Tyson is the acclaimed baddest man on the planet

Tyson’s rep told the Daily News on May 12 that the former champ is staying in shape, but has no matches lined up.
The 5-foot-10, 240-pound bruiser said during an interview with rapper TI last month he might lace up the gloves for a good cause.
The folks at BKFC trying to bait Tyson reportedly said they plan to sweeten their eight-figure offer to Tyson with charitable donations.
A boxing insider tells The News there have been at least four offers from fighters looking to challenge Tyson. Evander Holyfield, who beat Tyson twice before, said he’d like to get a piece of the fighter who famously bit off his ear in 1997, according to Reuters.
The 57-year-old Holyfield told the BBC Tyson would have to ask for that fight because otherwise, it may look like he’s bullying Iron Mike, who’s 0-2 against him.
Tyson’s spokeswoman said she had no knowledge of an offer from BKFC.
Fingers crossed for now…
