Donal Trump is the latest personality to comment on Mike Tyson's incredible training skills after the video clip surfaced on social media.
The Baddest Man on the Planet showed tremendous speed and frightening punch power as he prepares for an exhibition bout to help raise funds for charity.
And the United States president wasted no time in reacting to the video of the former undisputed heavyweight king.
"Keep punching Mike!," Trump said on his official Twitter handle.
Tyson 44 recorded 44 knockouts in his 56 career fights, with 20 of his KO's coming right from the first round.
He became the youngest ever heavyweight champions following his knockout victory over Trevor Berbick in 1985.
He claims he is in the best shape of his life after undergoing training sessions to keep him fit for the exhibition bout.
"I've been hitting the mitts for the last week," he said on Instagram Live with rapper T.I.
"That's been tough, my body is really jacked up and really sore from hitting the mitts. "I've been working out, I've been trying to get in the ring, I think I'm going to box some exhibitions and get in shape.
"I want to go to the gym and get in shape to be able to box three or four-round exhibitions for some charities and stuff."
Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh had earlier reported that Oscar De La Hoya has claimed that veteran boxer Mike Tyson is still relevant in the heavyweight division after a video of his training went viral.
The Baddest man on the Planet during his prime recorded 44 knockouts out of his 56 fights which saw him dominate the heavyweight division.
Despite the troubles faced by the 53-year-old, he has risen to make a name for himself with movie appearances, podcasts and owns a cannabis company.
Tyson is currently preparing for an exhibition fight aimed to raise money for charity and a video clip of his frightening speed and punch power went viral.
