Tyson Fury has Mike Tyson fight offer as Frank Warren slams Iron Mike’s plans

Tyson Fury has an offer to fight Mike Tyson. However, Frank Warren is ‘totally against’ the American making a comeback. The Gypsy King recently announced he had agreed a mega-fight with Anthony Joshua. Warren has now confirmed there is the opportunity to fight Iron Mike, but he’s not entertaining it. “The offer Tyson has was given to him,” Warren told The Metro. “There has been talk about Mike Tyson doing an exhibition with Tyson Fury. There has been a conversation, but not with me. To be quite honest, it’s not something I’m interested in.” Warren reckons he’s ‘too old’ to be making a return. “Mike is old. He’s not any better than when Danny Williams and Kevin McBride beat him,” Warren said. “I’m totally against it all to be honest. Mike fighting Evander Holyfield or Roy Jones Jr or Tyson Fury. It’s wrong. “They’re not past their sell by dates, those sell by dates have disintegrated. They shouldn’t be doing it and people shouldn’t be encouraging it. If anything goes wrong, it comes back on boxing. “There will be some idiots who pay to watch this. If the two Tysons were to have an exhibition to raise money for charity, then that’s okay – as long as it’s choreographed. I haven’t got a problem with that. But anything else is crazy.” Source: Daily Star
