CelebnSports247.com reports that Mike Tyson made the announcement while talking with Canelo Alvarez and UFC star Henry Cejudo on his “Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson” podcast.
Iron Mike Tyson said “the big question, who’s the opponent?!?”
He also revealed he’s looking at a May 29 fight date.
Though, Mike didn’t expand on the details — but we already know Tyson has been eyeing a long-awaited rematch with Evander Holyfield.
In fact, Tyson has previously told us he’d be down to run it back with Evander — as long as the two can raise a bunch of money for charity in the process.
We recently spoke with 58-year-old Evander Holyfield in December who told us “it looks like” the fight with Mike was going to happen.
The guy’s been training like a maniac lately — so, it would make sense.

While Mike is training, so is Evander Hollyfield, who said he is getting the rhythm back.

Evander and Mike last fought in 1997 … and it ended with Tyson biting a chunk out of Evander’s ear. Holyfield’s last pro fight was in 2011, when he earned a TKO victory over Brian Nielsen.
Another contender could be former heavyweight champ Lennox Lewis who said “he’s down to scrap with Mike” … but only “if the people want it.”
However, Roy Jones Jr was convinced Holyfield would be Mike’s next opponent.
We will let you know once we have word on who he is fighting.
