Even at 57, most people wouldn’t want to get in the way of Mike Tyson. This conclusion can be drawn from a recent training video posted on social media. Tyson may be out of the boxing game for a while, but the sport isn’t finished with him yet. Subsequently, this can be seen from Mike Tyson‘s movement and technique in the video.
Tyson was one of the most feared men to ever step into the ring. But most would say that age has taken a toll on him, robbed him of his one-shot knockout power. However, this video should serve as a reminder that Tyson has aged but not lost his infamous power. The video was shared on Instagram by the owner of Kings MMA gym, Rafael Cordeiro. Furthermore, Cordeiro uploaded the video stating,
Another day at the office! Thank you for everything, my Brother!Rafael Cordeiro via Instagram
Furthermore, in the video, we get a glimpse of Tyson’s former glory at full display. As such, Tyson can be seen in his iconic peek-a-boo stance with his impressive footwork. In addition, Tyson lands thunderous shots on the pads as he closes the distance with extreme skill and precision.
Hence, age might have deteriorated Tyson’s performance inside the ring and caused him to retire. However, Tyson still has the killer instinct and iconic techniques taught him by Cus D’Amato.
