Apr 13, 2025
Mike Tyson appears to be done with fighting.
'Iron Mike' ended a lengthy hiatus from the ring last November to take on YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul in a controversial crossover clash.

Tyson looked every one of his 58 years as he laboured to a wide unanimous decision loss in his first professional outing since being stopped by the unheralded Kevin McBride in 2005.
In the immediate aftermath, Tyson suggested he may fight again if the right opportunity presents itself.
"I don't know. It depends on the situation," he said when asked if this would be his last fight.
"I don't think so. I could fight Logan Paul."
However, his mind appears to have been made up five months on from his money-spinning showdown with Paul.
“The only person I’m fighting now is my accountant," he told Men's Health when asked if he would box again.
"Other than that, I’m just living life and I’m doing good right now.”

“I think he’s done,” Amir said during an interview with Seconds Out.
“My stepmom, she’s saying he’s done and they’re a team. That’s husband-and-wife stuff.”

Ultimately, Tyson has no reason to step back between the ropes.
His fight with Paul was a massive commercial success, and another comeback would only serve to damage his legacy further.
Meanwhile, 72,300 fans flooded into the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, to witness it first-hand.
