Boxing legend Mike Tyson proved his talent and determination by becoming the youngest Heavyweight champion in the history of the sport, a feat that other boxers haven’t been able to touch ever since. From a young age he showed a talent for violence and Cus D’Amato gave direction to his rage by turning him into one of the greatest knockout artists in the sport.

For instance, in his fight against Trevor Berbick, Tyson’s explosive strength was on full display. He dominated the bout, delivering punches with such intensity that Berbick struggled to defend himself. It was a testament to Tyson’s training and natural ability. Similarly, when Tyson faced off against Michael Spinks, the boxing world anticipated a close match. However, Tyson’s explosive strength proved too much for Spinks. The fight ended in the first round, with Tyson’s overwhelming power leaving a lasting impression. So, does Mike still hold such immeasurable prowess?

At 57, one would think that Mike Tyson would no longer have the agility or power as in his younger age. His sciatica rendered him unable to bear pain. However, in the video that Tyson’s trainer Rafael Cordeiro shared, the boxing legend appeared as quick as a cat.

Cordeiro wrote in the caption, “Draw or knockout!”, he further answered his own question as, “Drawing the knockout with @miketyson!”. Cordeiro has been training Tyson ever since his bout against another boxing legend Roy Jones Jr. He often shares clips of Tyson showing off his boxing skills in training.
