Mike Tyson is a pro boxing legend, and fans would love to witness him back in the ring. It turns out, Tyson in an accidental manner fooled the fans with an intense sparring video clip that he posted on social media. A ton of people assumed the clip was recent but in reality, it’s actually a few years old, and Tyson is misrepresenting his current abilities.

Iron Mike shared the workout footage earlier Tuesday morning and captioned the post, “Roll with the punches.” 56-year-old Mike looks incredible in the video. So, TMZ had to reach out to his camp to find out if he was training for any particular reason.
The video clip had people excited as a potential event could have been on the horizon. As it turns out, we’re told the vid is a throwback from before his fight against Roy Jones Jr. and Mike just wanted to share the moment with his 19.4 million followers.
Tyson has been involved in several bouts in his illustrious career. It is needless to mention that his body is going through wear and tear. The health issues can be clearly witnessed. Recently, Tyson Fury’s father, John Fury, had a few choice words to say about Tyson.

He was recently pictured in a wheelchair at Miami International Airport on Tuesday. Tyson’s latest outing when he was assisted in a wheelchair by an airport employee came exactly three weeks after he was seen moving gingerly while out in New York City. Recently, fans have shown concern for Tyson after he appeared at a Miami Dolphins game. Mike Tyson was also seen without a wheelchair and was walking around at the Miami Dolphins’ win over the New England Patriots.
