“I did get a phone call with a chance to fight Mike Tyson. I was like ‘what?'” Fury told BT Sport.

“Yeah, I had a phone call saying ‘would you like to fight Mike Tyson in an exhibition fight?’ I was like ‘hell yeah!’

“But I don’t think anything’s materialised out of it to be honest,” the 31-year-old added.

“So yeah I think he’s [Mike Tyson] definitely serious about doing some fights or whatever, but he’s fought Holyfield twice so they’re both old now, so I think they’re a bit long in the teeth.

“But who am I to say anything, what anybody’s capable of? I wouldn’t try and kill anybody’s dreams.

“If they’re both fit to fight, medically fit, then let them do what they want to do. It’s their life not mine.”

Even before ‘Iron Mike’ claimed he would be making his comeback people had been talking about what would happen if the two Tysons were able to fight. 

It would be amazing to watch.
