Mike Tyson and Floyd Mayweather have signed a deal for an exhibition match this spring. There’s no word on an exact date, location, or where the world can watch. Tyson says, quote, “This fight is something neither the world nor I ever thought would or could happen. However, boxing has entered a new era of the unpredictable, and this fight is as unpredictable as it gets. “I still can’t believe Floyd wants to really do this. It’s going to be detrimental to his health, but he wants to do it, so it’s signed and it’s happening!” Regardless of the outcome, it won’t affect Mayweather’s perfect 50-0 record, since it’s an exhibition. And in case you’re wondering, Mayweather is 48 years old, and Tyson is 59. There’s no word on an exact date or location.
