Mike Tyson, back in his prime, was the most devastating puncher of all time. Tyson was blessed with the rare ability to floor his opponents with just one power punch. That said, he capitalized on this ability to hammer dozens of opponents inside the squared circle.

Tyson retired from the sport almost two decades back. However, ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ hasn’t lost his magnetic power and can knock any pro-boxer out even today.

Recently, a video of ‘Iron’ Mike surfaced on the internet, wherein he can be seen hitting the mitts with his stupendous power.

Last year, ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ appeared under the big lights for an exhibition bout against Roy Jones Jr. In this fight, he showed some snippets of his former self, thus bagging the attention of one and all. Both the pugilists didn’t go too hard on each other, however, they landed their best shots effortlessly.

That fight even generated a whopping 1.6 million PPV buys. Accordingly, Tyson, since then, has remained hungry to get inside the squared circle and test his prowess once again.
