The heavyweight legends shared one of boxing's most iconic rivalries in the 1990s, with Holyfield twice winning.

"We do it, make some money that we probably wouldn't be able to make, so the big thing is finding something that we both can do that we understand that it's not a fight.

Tyson, 56, made a shock return in 2020 for an exhibition with Roy Jones Jr, 54, which went eight rounds and ended a draw with both unscathed.
A year later Holyfield, 60, made a comeback of his own but he was shamelessly beaten up by ex-UFC star Vitor Belfort, 46.
