Iron Mike, who last wrestled professionally 15 years ago, has stepped up his training in recent weeks.

He has received numerous big-money offers, including from former rugby star Sonny Bill Williams and Tyson Fury’s father John, but will only offer more serious offers.

As SunSport revealed over the weekend, Tyson is only willing to step into the ring with an opponent “in good faith” as he doesn’t want to disrespect the sport he loves.

A source said: “Mike has ruled out the possibility of an exhibition fight in Australia because he does not want to fight a crossover athlete.”

“If Mike returns to boxing, it will only be to fight another fighter in good faith.

“Mike believes that anything else would be an insult to the sport.”

A trilogy match with retired teammate Evander Holyfield, 57, is certainly gaining ground with Tyson’s rival to make his own return to charity.

The Real Deal is definitely ready.

Holyfield said, “I wouldn’t mind doing it.

“Although I’m four years older than him, it wouldn’t be a problem.”
Speaking on his podcast over the weekend, Tyson said, “Be the art of fighting, be the art of war.

“That’s all I studied. That’s why they fear me so much, that’s why they feared me when I was in the ring. Because I was an annihilator.”

“That’s all I was born for. Now those days are gone, it’s empty, I’m nothing.

“I feel unstoppable now. I feel the same again. The gods of war ignited my ego and want me to go back to war.

“Imagine if you went out there and fought and could help all of these people that we talked about.”
