Mike’s raking in the offers…

After already being offered millions to make his return to boxing in Australia against an array of potential opponents, Tyson has now been offered over $30 million ($20 million US) to sign with the controversial Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC).

The offers came flooding after a video surfaced of Tyson hitting the bag this week, showing how age has done nothing to dampen his boxing skills.

The president of the BKFC guaranteed Tyson the payday if he agreed to fight one of the heavyweight fighters on the BKFC roster, but he’s also open to other ways the pair can work together “While we did make a guaranteed offer of $20 million for Mike to fight for BKFC, we’re open to many different options as to how we can work together,” he said.

The fighter Tyson would be most likely to fight would be former heavyweight champ Shannon Briggs, 48. However, the infamous fighting league is still outlawed in many countries, so who knows if this will even happen, but boy, if it did it would definitely be one to watch.
