Mike Tyson has reaffirmed why for so long he was the ‘baddest man on the planet’ after posting an incredible photo of his physique.

Tyson, now 54, will come out of a 15-year retirement to face 51-year-old former champion Roy Jones Jr. in an exhibition bout.

But what is more incredible about his willingness to step back into the ring is his body transformation.

The 54-year-old has shed a huge amount of weight for his exhibition bout with Jones Jr and his latest photo is the most incredible yet.

Lead MMA reporter Ariel Helwani wrote: ‘Bro’.

Professional wrestler Brent Tate commented: “Still The Baddest Man on the Planet.”

Others were just taken aback at how ‘terrifying’ Tyson looked.

Tyson admitted he has lost close to 60kg to get back in shape during his intense training regime.

While the videos he has posted show off his incredible ferocity hitting the pads, his latest images show his ripped figure.

Boxing fans can’t get enough of his incredible transformation.
