The American heavyweight legend stunningly announced he would face fellow boxing royalty Floyd Mayweather in an exhibition fight.

It was originally touted for spring of this year, but things quickly went quiet.

Tyson then suggested the bout was indeed set to take place, with venues in Africa being considered.

But 18-time kickboxing champion Mike Zambidis then stunningly appeared to announce he would be facing Mayweather on June 27 in Athens, Greece.

That appeared to be the damaging final nail in the coffin of the clash.

But a confident Tyson still thinks it will materialise, insisting it was ‘Money’ who made the first call.

He told TMZ: “Yeah, it’s happening. S***t, yeah, it’s happening!

“You think I’d give that up?! I was minding my business! He challenged me.

“We are going to party afterwards, baby! We’ll have a ball afterwards!”
