But according to actor and martial artist Paulo Tocha, Tyson could yet fight once more for a trilogy with Evander Holyfield. Tocha told The Mirror: “At the end he kind of let us know there's another one coming. “Let me put it this way, if Tyson trains correctly and prepares himself, he should take on another fight.

"A more serious fighter, a more serious opponent, and a bigger money maker. Most probably it's going to be Evander after all. "He and Evander - after what happened to his ear and all that. So most probably it'll be something like that.". Holyfield stopped Tyson in 11 rounds of their first fight in 1996.
