Anthony Joshua gives verdict on Mike Tyson's proposed boxing comeback

Anthony Joshua says he would love to see Mike Tyson make a return to boxing. Last week, Tyson has posted a sensational video on Instagram, a couple of moments from his training sessions. He has confirmed that a comeback is near. Tyson wrote: “Anything is possible when you are smart about it. Train Smart. Recover Smarter.” Speaking to British GQ, Joshua said: "If he's back in the ring, I would love to see it, I would definitely be one of the viewers, that's for sure. No matter what anybody has to say about Mike Tyson now, in terms of what he went through when he was fighting and some of the controversies he went through. "The guy took himself from his neighbourhood – which wasn't the prettiest of scenes – up to an amateur champion, youngest heavyweight champion, one of the most recognised faces of the sport of boxing. In my opinion the only two faces in boxing that are recognised globally are Muhammad Ali and Mike Tyson. So from where he started, to where he is now, he is my ultimate motivation. He's the closest guy to my generation so he holds a special place in my heart." Source: The Mirror
