Update:

Ray Fisher, who is promoting the event in the UK, said Tyson would be taking part in some community work when he was in the area.

"When he signed the contract last week, Mike has asked us to do make sure that his visit includes some form of community work and we are looking at the different possibilities in the city," added Mr Fisher, who is based in Warrington.

"He has come to spread the message that he is not the old Mike Tyson. He will talk about his career and his past, but will also look at his life now."
