Mike Tyson has claimed that he's gearing up to get into the boxing ring with Lennox Lewis in September.
The 54-year-old former undisputed world heavyweight champion told TMZ that his next fight is lined up as he kickstarts training for the rematch.
He told TMZ Sports: "I'm gonna fight Lennox Lewis. September."
Iron Mike has been searching far and wide for his next opponent ever since his rematch with Evander Holyfield fell through.
The legends were set to take to the ring next month, but the deal fell through after both sides couldn't agree on money.
Tyson is now setting his sights on Lewis, after they famously fought in 2002.
Lewis successfully defended his unified heavyweight titles against Tyson in Memphis, Tennessee, knocking out the former undisputed champion in one of the most lucrative bouts of all time.
The knockout took place in the 8th round during that fight, so Iron Mike is now looking to return the favor.
It was just weeks before that fight when Tyson famously said he wanted to "eat" Lewis' kids.
Ahead of the fight almost two decades ago, Tyson famously said:
"I'm the best ever. I'm the most brutal and vicious, and most ruthless champion there's ever been.
"There's no one can stop me. Lennox is a conqueror? No, I'm the best ever.
"There's never been anybody as ruthless. There's no one like me. There's no one that can match me.
"My style is impetuous, my defence is impregnable, and I'm just ferocious. I want your heart. I want to eat his children."
Earlier this year, Lewis revealed that he would gladly step back into the ring to go head-to-head with Tyson.
After seeing Iron Mike's comeback against Roy Jones Jr, Lewis told TMZ: "If the public wanted it then we would probably talk. I don't know.
"I don't really have nothing pushing me in the ring right now. People would love to see that fight but I don't know."
Lewis retired from the sport after famously emerging victorious against Vitali Klitschko back in 2003.
Meanwhile, Tyson stepped away from the ring in 2005 with an impressive professional record of 50 wins, 6 defeats, and 2 no contests out of a total of 58 fights.
His most recent exhibition match was against Roy Jones Jr. in November of last year, which ended in a draw.
