MIKE TYSON has incredibly transformed his body in just one year ahead of his fight with Jake Paul.

The heavyweight icon returns on November 15 in Texas for his controversial clash against YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul.

And Tyson recently revealed his stunning physique at the age of 58, posing for a black and white photo with his shredded abs on display.

It was only in December of last year that Iron Mike showed off the results of having his late daughter Exodus tattooed on his chest.

And in the 11 months since he has whipped himself into amazing shape to fight Paul – who is 30 YEARS his junior.

Even the social media sensation has been impressed with Tyson’s turnaround.

Paul, 27, said: “Fair play Mike. You look incredible. Hulk s***. But I’m still f***ing you up.”

Tyson is set to make his return to professional boxing for the first time in nearly two decades.

He has not fought since 2005 when he quit on his stool against tree surgeon Kevin McBride and threw the towel in on his career.

He weighed 16st 6lb, over ONE STONE heavier than the night he first won the title aged 20 in 1986 during his fearsome prime.

Tyson did return in 2020 for an exhibition bout against Roy Jones Jr and scaled 15st 7lb – which resembled his best fighting weight.

In retirement, Iron Mike got as heavy as 27 STONE after falling into depression and substance abuse.

But he remarkably turned his life around and is now back in boxing despite the scrutiny that has come with it.

The already slammed showdown was further questioned when Tyson pulled out of the initial July 20 date after suffering an ulcer flare-up on a flight.

But, he has been passed medically fit to fight and will undertake additional heart and brain tests due to his age.

It will also be a professionally-sanctioned bout but over eight two-minute rounds opposed to three and competed in bigger 14oz gloves.

And Tyson boasted of needing only a fraction of his brilliant best to beat 10-1 Paul – who only debuted in 2020.

He said: “I’m just doing really well. I’m doing really well.

“I’m very grateful that I’m doing well. I’m just looking forward to the fight, really looking forward to it.

“Like when you think about it regardless of how old I am, this guy only has ten fights.

“He only has ten fights, if I can fight a little bit with my experience, he only has ten f***ing fights, okay?

“If I can fight ten per cent of what I was, he only has ten fights, he couldn’t match that.

“And that’s being sincere. If I’m 10 per cent, he can’t match it.”
