George Foreman has urged Mike Tyson to reconsider his plans to get back into the boxing ring.
Tyson, 53, is regarded as one of the greatest heavyweights in the history of boxing.
He became the first heavyweight to hold the WBA, WBC and IBF belts and later became the lineal champion.
He retired from boxing after losing his last fight, to Kevin McBride in Washington in 2005, but revealed last week that he is in training for a four-round exhibition charity bout.
The former champion said he wants to fight again and “make some money to help some homeless and drug-affected motherf****** like me”.
But Foreman, who became the oldest heavyweight champion at 45 back in 1994, does not think Tyson should get back into the ring.
Speaking to World Boxing News, Foreman said: “Tyson has done enough great things for boxing. No more is needed.
“’He is in the Hall of Fame and was a mighty puncher.”
Tyson did however recently reveal that he will never consider taking part in the UFC.
“I don’t know, because they don’t make enough money in my perspective,” Tyson told Heavy. “It’s exciting and sexy, but [UFC fighters] don’t make enough money.
“MMA will always have more views and stuff than boxing, but boxers will always make more money than MMA fighters.
“That’s tricky. That doesn’t make any sense.”
