Tyson has been doing gruelling workouts to get himself back in shape.

And below you can see he still possesses some of that devastating power that served him so well during his pomp.

The video was uploaded by Tyson's coach, Rafael Cordeiro, a former MMA fighter.

The fight with fellow former world champion Jones Jr was due to happen on September 12 but now takes place on Saturday, November 28, which is during Thanksgiving Weekend in America.

It will be an exhibition bout, over eight rounds last two minutes each, and will be broadcast on BT Sports pay-per-view in the UK,

Tyson may be older and probably wiser but he's still susceptible to getting riled up very easily and went on an x-rated rant at one of the promotional ideas for the fight.

'Iron Mike' said: “Name a song or a movie that gets you pumped up! ..I don’t want to do this. This is really not me. I wouldn’t be saying this bulls***.

"I’m not going to be asking him to play no movie or no song or what he likes.

“If you want to sell the fight, we’re not going to sell it talking f****** nursery rhymes, f****** novel stuff. [It’s] a f****** joke and these guys are not trying to kill each other.

“‘Hey, what song or movie gets you pumped up baby?!’ Come on, man. That’s me? That’s what you consider me? You consider me a b****?

"This is in the name of fighting, we want to kill each other, man.

"The people are coming to see us fight because they know we want to kill each other. They’re f****** savages – they want us to kill each other. They want blood."
