Mike Tyson Punch Video Is Several Years Old ... Sorry.
Sorry to be the spoiler, but that awesome video of Mike Tyson teaching some guys how to throw a ferocious punch combination at a bar ain't new.
In fact, it was shot YEARS ago -- and it was all for a movie that's already been released.

— Boxing Life (@BoxingL1fe) March 3, 2019Look, it's still amazing footage -- but a rep for Tyson tells us Mike was only throwing those combos as part of his role in the 2017 action flick "China Salesman" ... which also stars Steven Seagal.
Mike's rep doesn't recall the exact date the footage was shot but production wrapped up in August 2016 -- so, it was obviously before that date.
