Mike Tyson has spoken out following concerns about his planned exhibition with Floyd Mayweather.

It was announced last year that Tyson and Mayweather were set to meet at some stage in 2026, with it then reported that April 25 in the Congo was the proposed date and location.

Those plans appear to be dwindling after it was since claimed that the bout would be unlikely for that date, leading some fans to question if it will still go ahead after Mayweather announced other contests for the next six months.

An exhibition against kickboxer Mike Zambidis has been confirmed to take place in Athens in June, before Mayweather then ends his professional retirement for a rematch against long-term rival Manny Pacquiao at The Sphere in Las Vegas on September 19.

Despite that, Tyson has insisted that he will indeed still be facing Mayweather, after he was asked by Ring Magazine if the fight is going ahead.

“It’s going to happen, thank god. I’m so grateful for it.”

Tyson and Mayweather have traded some choice words with one another over the years, but Tyson insists there is no bad blood heading into the clash.

“I have no animosity. We’re just boxing. I’m not knocking out anybody, nobody is knocking me out, we’re going to fight.”

Tyson was last in action in November 2024 when he was beaten by YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul in their controversial fight, with ‘Iron Mike’ set to be 59-years-old when he takes on a 49-year-old Mayweather at some stage in the next few months.

Kyle Van Noy has a decision to make, and he’s treating it as the most important of his career. The veteran linebacker entered free agency after Baltimore’s front office traded for then-Raiders edge rusher Maxx Crosby on Saturday. It was a move that effectively reshuffled the Ravens‘ pass-rushing depth chart.

Van Noy spent the last two seasons with Baltimore. He owns two Super Bowl rings from his New England Patriots days and has recorded 57 career sacks across 12 seasons. Van Noy’s agent has already reportedly begun talks with interested teams.

The linebacker opened up about his situation on Tuesday.

“I’m just being very selective this year,” Van Noy said on “Free Agent Frenzy.” “I know this will probably be my last year if I choose to play. I really, really think I have enough juice. I’m like Mike Evans. You put me in the game, we’re going to make plays, baby.”

The Mike Evans comparison wasn’t random. The wide receiver brushed off retirement this offseason despite a collarbone injury that ended his 2025 campaign early. He agreed to a deal with the San Francisco 49ers worth up to $60.4 million, according to ESPN.

Kyle Van Noy also discussed how he’s approaching the market. He made it clear that the situation has to be right and that it isn’t about grabbing the first offer.

“As you get later in your career, you get to make the best decision for you,” Van Noy said.

His 2025 numbers tell part of the story: 2.5 sacks in 15 games, down from the 12.5 that earned him a Pro Bowl nod in 2024. Van Noy’s snap count dropped from 631 to 494 during the same stretch. A situational pass-rusher role fits the realistic outlook.
