WATCH: 55-Year-Old Mike Tyson Destroys Punching Bag in 6 Seconds
Mike Tyson is currently training for his next fight. ‘Iron’ Mike looks to fight for the second time, ever since making his comeback last year. The former heavyweight champion has spoken about his plans to fight in February next year. Although he has not decided who he will fight next, he will definitely fight early next year.
In preparation for his fight, Tyson trains regularly. Earlier today, ‘The baddest man on the planet’ released a workout video where he puts three free-standing punching bags to the test. Although the video is a brand endorsement, Tyson goes all out on all three bags to try to knock them down or get them to move outside a square marked on the floor.
Out of the three bags, one bag lasts only for 6 seconds, as Tyson hits it with three consecutive punches. The primary punch he used on the bags was his devastating right hand. This punch is one of the most feared, and one of the most powerful punches in the sport of boxing. Another bag lasts just 12 seconds as Tyson successfully moves it out of the square marked on the ground.

The only bag that survived the ordeal was the Fight Camp free-standing bag. After the challenge, Tyson says, “Hey this is Mike Tyson, and Fight Camp is the next level of training.” Tyson uploaded the video to his Instagram account to promote the bag and the company.
