Mike Tyson could be making a return to the ring. At least that’s what he’s trying to convey to his fans, through his latest Instagram Story. So, Tyson has himself announced his return to the world of boxing, and this news has taken the whole Internet by storm. For obvious reasons, this is a big deal in the world of combat sports. Everybody would love to see ‘Iron’ Mike dancing inside the ring again for one last time. Well, the last time he got laced up was for an exhibition bout against Roy Jones Jr on Nov 29, 2020.

Now, the fans are speculating the return to be something like that, while some fans are also trying to be not too hopeful. Because before this, Mike Tyson permanently closed the door to boxing return, as his new film suggested.

So, in Tyson’s recent Instagram Story, he shared an Instagram Post made on the shoptysonpro account. And underneath the Post, there’s a countdown widget attached for 10 days, with the caption written on it, “TYSON’S RETURN“. And in the actual video, we can see Tyson playing the role of a boxing coach to a young boxer while guiding him to the path of victory.
