Mike Tyson not your average 58 year old during the scary workout

IRVING, Texas – Boxing legend Mike Tyson he’s approaching 60 years old, but you wouldn’t know it by the way he’s still able to hit the pads.

At an open workout Tuesday at the Toyota Music Factory, the 58-year-old boxing legend showed off his strength and technique in an open workout held in front of a crowd of fans three days before his Friday boxing match vs. Jake Paul at AT&T Stadium in Dallas.

Friday’s match will be eight two-minute rounds, contested in the heavyweight division.

Despite his achievements in this sport, Tyson is a slight underdog heading for battle. Maybe it’s the age difference that has oddsmakers leaning toward the 27-year-old YouTuber-turned-boxer, or maybe it’s Paul’s near-perfect record of saying he’s going to do what he’s going to do.

Check out the highlights of the legendary Tyson’s open workout in the video above.
