MIKE TYSON once again showed off his ferocious speed and power in preparation for his fight with Roy Jones Jr.
Brazilian trainer Rafael Cordeiro has continued to give fans a glimpse of Tyson’s training with another explosive video on the pads.

In the latest clip, Iron Mike throws a rear hand to the body, ducks underneath and comes up with a left hook and right hand combination.
Fans were left hailing Tyson in the comments, as one said: “Beast mode.”
Another said: “He still got it! Champ!”
It comes just after Tyson was captured backing Cordeiro up against the ropes in another drill on the mitts.
Tyson, 54, is set to return to the ring for the first time in 15 years when he faces Jones, 51, in an eight-round exhibition on November 28.
The heavyweight icon has spent his comeback with MMA coach Cordeiro, where he has dramatically transformed his body.
Tyson’s decision to fight again has inspired other retired legends to do the same.
Oscar De La Hoya, now a promoter, is among those, but instead wants to lace up the gloves as a professional again, opposed to in exhibitions.
But the 47-year-old – who has not fought since 2008 – will have a close eye on Tyson’s comeback fight.
And he has even tipped the reformed Baddest Man on The Planet to win, taking Teofimo Lopez’s shock win over Vasily Lomachenko as inspiration.
De La Hoya said on Instagram Live: “Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones Jr what do I think?
“In boxing, and I think Teofimo [Lopez] proved it, is that a good big guy always beats a good small guy.
“It’s always like that, so I’m going to have to go with Tyson.
“But it wouldn’t surprise me if Jones Jr pulls something off – like he always has in his career.”
