Now Tyson has shared a video on his Instagram that was directed by Triller.

The clip features Brit boxer Chris Eubank Jr talking up Jones’s training skills.

The Brighton bruiser has been training with Jones Jr over in the US since March.

He revealed he is putting the 51-year-old through his paces to prepare for the Tyson scrap with some full-throttle sparring.

In the clip, Eubank says: “It’s a crazy atmosphere, but crazy is what breeds excellence in this sport.

“And that’s what Roy is, he’s no ordinary trainer, and he is the best trainer I’ve ever had.”

Zab Judah then credits Jones Jr then helping him become ‘a champion’ – Judah is the former IBF super-lightweight champ.

Tyson then chips in with: “All great fighters can’t be great trainers, it takes a very special person to be a great trainer.”

But the niceties will end come fight night in November.

The two former world champions were originally scheduled to fight on September 12, but that was pushed back.

Tyson, 54, has been training since March ahead of his sensational comeback. He last fought 15 years ago after announcing his retirement in 2005.

Jones who last boxed in 2018, admitted the new date could benefit him as it allows more time to prepare.

“If everything works out, yes,” he said.

“I don’t know if things… if everything will work yet.

“But if everything works out then yeah, it probably will help me.”
