Mike Tyson Sends a Message to Tyson Fury: “Come Back”

Former undisputed heavyweight champion Mike Tyson has urged Tyson Fury, the former unified heavyweight champion from Britain, to return to the ring despite his decision to retire.

“Listen, take a couple of months off and come back. Yeah, come back. You’ll want to return when you’re 40, so start doing it now.

I regret retiring when I did. So just keep training and keep fighting, because when you’re 40, you’ll wish you had.

Fight until you can’t anymore.

That’s what I do — I want to fight as long as I can breathe. Knock me out, I don’t care.

He just needs a rest, you know? To relax mentally, and then come back and do what he does best — fight.

I think he should have two tune-up fights, but for good money. He can make a lot of money fighting contenders, up-and-coming guys. A couple of tune-ups — and then straight for the title,” Tyson said.

Tyson Fury announced his retirement after two consecutive losses to Oleksandr Usyk and later said he saw no reason to return to the ring.

His father has previously revealed that he named him after Mike Tyson.
