Henry Cejudo Drops Massive News Regarding Mike Tyson’s Return to the Ring

A few days back, Mike Tyson dropped a fiery training video on his official social handles. This video attracted the attention of boxing fans and everyone lauded ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ for his overall fitness and stupendous boxing workouts. Moreover, it seemed as if Tyson was preparing for another boxing return.

Talking about the same, the former UFC kingpin, Henry Cejudo, spilled the beans on ‘Iron’ Mike’s return. Speaking to FightHype, he said, “He’s ready man. He wants a piece of Lennox Lewis and that fight might happen by the end of this year. And that’s it, man, Mike is back, ‘Iron’ Mike is back”

In the buildup to this fight, Tyson and Lewis even entered a fierce brawl, thus garnering more attention towards their actual fight. ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ was considered a favorite, but the British boxer turned the tide in his favor by smothering Tyson.
