MIKE TYSON was all smiles as he enjoyed a night out in New York City.
The former boxer, 56, has suffered from health problems in recent months, but he looked in good shape when he went out to dinner in the Big Apple.
Tyson was accompanied by a friend as he entered the upscale Indian restaurant SONA in the Flatiron District.
The restaurant offers private dining and features an art gallery, as well as a menu that includes crab caviar and delicious lamb chops for £56.
So it was no surprise that Tyson was grinning from ear to ear when he entered the store in a blue leather jacket.
Iron Mike also wore a blue striped t-shirt, jeans and white sneakers, while his friend wore a black crop top and matching pants with a long black and white cardigan.
Tyson was also able to walk without the aid of a cane, which he has used in recent weeks to support himself.
The former world heavyweight champion revealed that he suffers from sciatica and a flare-up of the condition causes pain that prevents him from walking unassisted.
Tyson also had to use a wheelchair as he walked through an airport terminal last month.
In a recent interview, Tyson explained the health issue and the problems it causes.
He said: “I have sciatica from time to time, it flares up. When it explodes, I can't even speak! Thank God it's the only health problem I have. I am splendid now.
"Everyone in my house is truly blessed and we are all so thankful for what we have."
Sciatica is a condition that causes nerve irritation and appears to be affecting Tyson's back.
Tyson retired from boxing in 2005 due to a back problem, while he too struggled with a knee injury late in his career.
Despite the issue, Tyson returned to the ring in 2020 to fight Roy Jones Jr in an exhibition fight.
