Mike Tyson is set to return to boxing for the first time since his controversial fight against Jake Paul.
Tyson resumed his professional boxing career when he fought Paul at Arlington's AT&T Stadium last November.
He lost a unanimous decision in what was the 59th bout of his legendary boxing career.
Speaking after the heavyweight showdown, Tyson addressed rumours he has been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease after a claim was made by Paul.

But, in recent months, the 58-year-old has been fairly quiet in the world of boxing, having not appeared on our screens.
However, that will change on Friday when Saudi boxing chief Turki Alalshikh brings a stacked event to New York City's Times Square.
Tyson will work as a 'guest analyst' for DAZN for The Ring Magazine card, which features three blockbuster fights.
On X, Tyson wrote: "Can’t wait! I’ll be there in Times Square as guest analyst."
Having enjoyed an iconic career, 'Iron' Mike, who is still the youngest world heavyweight champion in history, will be on hand to provide expert analysis for the fights, which includes Ryan Garcia vs. Rolando Romero, Devin Haney vs. Jose Carlos Ramirez and Teofimo Lopez vs. Arnold Barboza.
Upon announcing the groundbreaking show, The Ring Magazine said: "Commemorating over a century of boxing excellence since it was founded in New York City in 1922, The Ring Magazine continues to push the boundaries of the sport.
"This landmark event will not only honour boxing's storied past but also redefine its future by bringing the raw energy of the ring to one of the most iconic locations in the world.
"As The Ring Magazine continues to shape boxing history, the Times Square boxing event is set to be a defining moment where the spirit of the sport meets the spectacle of the modern world."
Garcia vs. Romero will serve as the main-event, with Haney and Lopez also a part of the huge bill.
