Mike Tyson is back, the fearsome heavyweight who is 57 years old and has become an actor, podcaster, and stand-up comedian during his retirement from the sport, yet Tyson’s boxing past continues to marvel fans over the nostalgia of what he used to be.
At his peak, Tyson was terrifying, knocking out opponents in seconds, many of them were up to 5 to 10 inches taller than Tyson.
