Mike Tyson is the ‘Iron Man’ of Boxing
Can Mike Tyson fight back at the age of 58? Eddie Hearn believes He mentioned that simply talking to him or observing him was enough to see that he should no longer be in the ring. Acknowledging that everyone loves money, including himself, he added that the “green-eyed monster” of greed can lead to poor decisions, and he believed this was one of those cases.
In response, Mike Tyson said, “Well, that’s Eddie’s opinion, and that’s all I can say. Regarding the fight, he added, “I’m doing well. I’m just looking forward to the fight. Looking forward to it. When you think about it, regardless of me being how old I am, this guy only has 10 fights. If I see this fight 10% of what I was, he only has 10 fights.”
