Fury was in an interview ‘JOE‘. And, he was talking about his desire to fight Tyson. In conversation, he was initially all praise for the legendary heavyweight. Fury said:
“Mike Tyson was tricky. He had plenty of movement. Plenty of head movement. He was in and out quick feet. And, he had bombs in each hand and a great fighter.”
Tyson had previously undergone stem cell treatments in preparation for his return to boxing. Talking about the same, Fury stated:
“You know it’s a shame to see him, how he is today. You with all you hear about stem cells, blood transfusions to make him younger. Whatever they call them. You know what I’m saying? But he’s a great fella and I do like him.”
However, Fury added that he likes Tyson and that he would be honored to step inside the ring with the legend. Moreover, it is worth mentioning that Fury’s statement came at a time when Tyson’s health and well-being were under scrutiny. Tyson was in conversation with NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal. And this was when he opened up about undergoing stem cell treatments. Talking about the same, he said:
“I feel like a different person, but I can’t comprehend why I feel this way. It’s really wild what scientists can do.”
Tyson has been making some public appearances recently. He was spotted in public this week while out in New York City. But, the sights had raised concerns for the fans as he needed a cane to get around. ‘Iron Mike’ has reportedly been dealing with a “sciatica flare-up” in his back.
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.
