Yahoo’s Kevin Iole reported Thursday that Mike Tyson has agreed to an opponent and date for his boxing return.
The boxing legend is slated to take on Roy Jones Jr. in an eight-round exhibition match on September 12th at Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, California. It’s likely to air on PPV.
Tyson retired from the sport back in 2005. There will be some MMA vs. boxing fights on the undercard.

After getting into a brawl with Chris Jericho and The Inner Circle on the post-Double or Nothing episode of AEW Dynamite, Tyson teased making more appearances on AEW Dynamite. That will have to wait.
