Former heavyweight champion Iron Mike Tyson is set to announce a return to the ring with a fight against Kevin McBride on June 11 at Washington's MCI Center. The 38-year-old Tyson is 50-5 with two no contests and 44 knockouts.
Tyson’s last comeback fight was against Danny Williams in Louisville on July 30 when he was stopped in the fourth round after tearing cartilage in his left knee.
Tyson who became the youngest heavyweight champion ever when he knocked out Trevor Berbick at the age of 20 in 1986 has entered the ring just four times in the last four years.
