Eddie Hearn claims Mike Tyson’s camp have ‘reached out’ to him to promote his sensational comeback fight at 53 – The Sun

EDDIE HEARN has claimed Mike Tyson's camp have "reached out" to him to promote the 53-year-old's sensational comeback.

Tyson has been in the gym for the last month under MMA coach Rafael Cordeiro after announcing shock plans to make a ring return to fight in exhibition bouts for charity.

He has received numerous big-money proposals – including from former rugby star Sonny Bill Williams and even Tyson Fury's dad John – but will only entertain more serious offers.

As SunSport revealed, Tyson is only willing to step back into the ring for the first time in 15 years if it is against a "bona fide" opponent as he does not want to disrespect the sport he loves.

And Anthony Joshua's promoter Hearn – who staged the rematch between YouTubers KSI and Logan Paul last November – has been in talks with the heavyweight legend's team about working on his remarkable comeback.

He told British Boxing TV: "They reached out to me. I had a message. There's a fine line, I've crossed it a couple of times, between integrity of the sport vs entertainment/delivering numbers.

"I don't know, stranger things have happened, we'll see."
