Tyson landed a perfectly timed left hook on Gross
The KO came after Iron Mike bobbed and weaved as 20 shots fired at him.
But he perfectly timed a lead hook that left Gross, now 58, out for the count.
Tyson was just five fights and five months from the night he beat Trevor Berbick to become the youngest heavyweight champion of all time, aged 20.
The vintage clip of his KO against Gross has now resurfaced, with the 54-year-old nearing his sensational boxing comeback.
Tyson faces Roy Jones Jr, 51, in an eight-round exhibition on November 28.
It will be his first fight since hanging up the gloves in 2005.
During his 15 years in retirement Tyson never once trained, and revealed he was in bed for a WEEK after his first session back.
But after months of transforming his body and rediscovering his form on the pads, trainer Rafael Cordeiro claimed he is returning better than ever.
And the coach even believes the reformed Baddest Man on The Planet could challenge for the world title again.
Cordeiro TMZ: “I believe Mike can do it. If he put his mind, he wanna fight for the belt one day, why not? Who says it’s impossible to do?
“He’s fighting every single day in the gym and I believe the best still to come.
“Why not? If one day he wants to prove, he put his techniques to the test, why not [fight for] for the belt?
“He is improving every day. He does not look like a 54-year-old fighter.”
