Mike Tyson: Terrifying throwback footage of Iron Mike giving UFC stars boxing lesson goes viral
Mike Tyson once gave UFC stars Justin Gaethje and Ottman Azaitar a boxing lesson a full year before the American made his comeback against Roy Jones Jr in November 2020.
Amazing footage of ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ teaching the MMA fighters how to perform some of his signature moves has resurfaced online.
Filmed on a phone, the terrifying clip shows ‘Iron Mike’ sporting jeans, a loose-fitting polo shirt and white trainers – while Gaethje and Azaitar watch his every move.
The throwback footage has been shared on Twitter by boxing fan VtheEsquire and shows Tyson in his element.
Despite obviously being well past his prime, the 56-year-old ring legend didn’t seem to have lost a step, as he demonstrated the ‘peek-a-boo’ style to the pair during a visit to his Tyson Ranch near Desert Hot Springs in South California.
The video has gone viral, racking up over 2 million views in less than a week.

Mike Tyson could be 100 years old with one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel and I’m still not playfighting with him.
