Mike Tyson hints at the return everyone has been waiting for after abandoning it for Jake Paul

Almost 257 episodes later and a journey spanning almost five years, the Hotboxin' podcast saw its closure earlier this year

The beloved podcast hosted by Mike Tyson had everything you would have liked: celebrity guests, unfiltered conversations and your favorite "Iron Mike". But since it closed, fans have been wondering if there will be another edition of the show. Will the podcast return? The former world champion has dropped an important hint.

Will Mike Tyson's Hotboxin' be reborn?

Tyson, 58, had to end Hotboxin' due to his other commitments. But his scheduled fight with Jake Paul was like a death sentence

He was finding it difficult to juggle his business ventures and the Hotboxin' podcast. The added burden of training had a knock-on effect on the recording of the podcast. He stated earlier this year:

So when Tyson, 50-7, appeared in an interview with FOX, the co-hosts were excited about the recent commercial success of the Paul vs. Tyson fight. They also wanted to know if the new popularity could help revive Hotboxin'. To this, Tyson explained how the podcast started. He said: "This is something fun. My wife got me into this. Yeah, it's not that it doesn't drive me crazy, I don't love it. I love it like crazy. But I'm really good at it, yeah."

After this, Brooklyn gave his one-word response as to whether fans could expect anything from the podcast soon. He continued: "Yes." But will former co-host Eben Britton also return? We're not sure. Before the podcast is dated, one might expect Tyson to appear in another Netflix venture: his docuseries.

Mike Tyson returns to the spotlight on Netflix

The three-part docuseries will recall Tyson's famous and infamous accolades and acts, which made him one of the most popular faces of all time. In the same conversation, he addressed the subject and added: "We're working on it right now. We're doing everything that's about to come out of my new show. It will be on Netflix."

When the series was announced, Tyson told Netflix: "Most people are too afraid to look at their lives objectively, wanting to paint themselves as the hero of their own story... Having the opportunity to share my story through the thoughtful lens of my growth and maturity... will be a challenging, but very welcome journey."

You can expect three-hour-long episodes, which will consist of interviews with Tyson, his confidants and colleagues, and will give you an insight into his personal life and how he and his close friends saw his illustrious life unfold.
