Mike Tyson has showed off his stunning physique on social media as he helps prepare\u00a0Francis Ngannou for his fight with Tyson Fury.<\/p>\n
Tyson became the sport’s youngest heavyweight champion at the age of 20 back in\u00a01986.<\/p>\n
Iron Mike established a\u00a037-fight unbeaten record, before his shock loss to Buster Douglas back in 1990.<\/p>\n
He later became world heavyweight champion again, before successive defeats to rival\u00a0Evander Holyfield.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mike Tyson, 57, has shown off his impressive physique with a post on social media<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The boxing legend is widely considered as one of the greatest heavyweights of all time<\/p>\n
However, just months after announcing his retirement Tyson would return to the ring to stage a series of exhibitions alongside journeyman heavyweight Corey Sanders.<\/p>\n
After the initial event in Ohio was poorly received the remainder of the tour was cancelled and Tyson would step from the sport for nearly 15 years.<\/p>\n
Following a number of years outside the ring Tyson began sharing footage of himself working out with MMA trainer Rafael Cordeiro in 2020.<\/p>\n
Tyson lost a significant amount of weight by restarting his famed training regime and returned to the ring for an exhibition bout against fellow boxing legend Roy Jones Jnr in 2020.<\/p>\n
The ‘Baddest Man on the Planet’ took to social media to show he has retained his impressive physique, posting a muscular photo with the caption\u00a0‘Still got it’.<\/p>\n
Fans praised Tyson for retaining his physique, with one writing ‘Once a fighter is always a fighter’.<\/p>\n
‘Soo hard to maintain as you get older, huge respect,’ another wrote.<\/p>\n
The boxing legend has recently formed an unlikely partnership with\u00a0former UFC heavyweight powerhouse\u00a0Francis Ngannou.<\/p>\n

‘How many times do you really get to be involved in an immortal event,’ Tyson told Mail Sport earlier this month.<\/p>\n
‘How many times in my life will I be able to do something like this.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘Some of the magnitude. So, of course I would want to be involved in this and say yes to being a part of this.’<\/p>\n
Tyson has been working to help improve Ngannou’s striking skills, his precision and ring intelligence.\u00a0<\/p>\n
