JAMES TONEY called out Mike Tyson and said ‘you better not wear a mini-skirt to our fight’ in a strange message.

Tyson recently announced he will return for the second time in his comeback trail, on May 29 in Miami.

Iconic rival Evander Holyfield has been in talks with the heavyweight icon over a trilogy bout.

But fellow legend Toney appears to believe he is the one facing Tyson next and posted a video of Iron Mike in a bizarre music video.

Toney wrote: “You better not wear a mini-skirt to our fight. No jokes. Lights Out!”

Tyson, 54, remarkably announced a comeback in early 2020, sparking Toney, 52, and Holyfield, 58, to do the same.

Iron Mike eventually returned to the ring, 15 years after retiring, in November in an eight round exhibition.

He drew against Toney’s old rival Roy Jones Jr, 52, and revealed he wanted a quick turnaround.

Tyson later entered negotiations with Holyfield, 24 years after their infamous rematch.

Known as the ‘Bite Fight’, Iron Mike in 1997 sunk his teeth into his rival’s ear and was disqualified in round three.

It came a year after Holyfield won the initial fight by 11th round stoppage, considered an upset at the time.

The former two-weight champion is training for a trilogy with Tyson, and fought as recently as 2011, but retired in 2014.

Similarly, Toney stretched out his career until 2017, beating Mike Sheppard at heavyweight most recently.

And last year he called out Tyson and Holyfield, as he said: “To all those bringing up my name in these exhibition fight, count me in.

“If they want to do it, give me a call. I ain’t going nowhere.”
