Tyson Fury's dad John has called out Mike Tyson during a foul-mouthed rant - and claimed he is willing to die in the ring.
Fury Snr, 55, posted a video on social media with a message for Mick Theo, a bodybuilder whom Fury has agreed to fight.
And after delivering a dressing down to his rival during which he claimed he will settle only for a bareknuckle bout, Fury directed his attention to Tyson.
The former undisputed heavyweight world champion announced recently that he plans to return to the ring at the age of 53 in four-round exhibition bouts.
He has recruited mixed martial arts trainer Rafael Cordeiro and recently posted training footage which suggested he has lost little of his ferocious power.
Offers are likely to come flooding in to face the fighter formerly known as the baddest man on the planet, and Fury has added his name to the list.
"Forget you bum [Theo], I'm looking at Mike Tyson," he said. "Mike's making a comeback; I don't value my life at 50p but let me tell you something, Mike Tyson is worth doing charity with.
"He's a proper king of a champion, a proper man tried and tested, not some doorman who I used to practice on as a 14-year-old boy. If I didn't knock out four or five a night when I was 15 I was disappointed.
"I'll fight Mike Tyson, he's making a comeback. I know he mentions my boy's name every five minutes, but here I am, John Fury is hiding from no man, not even the king of the old men Mike Tyson.
"I will fight Mike Tyson; I will not be denied, I will die in a fight."
