'PRECISION': Mike Tyson nearly takes trainer's head off in training video

Mike Tyson.

At age 54, Mike Tyson hasn’t lost a step.

On Wednesday, Tyson’s trainer, Rafael Cordeiro posted a video of the “baddest man on the planet” sparring with him as he trains for a return to the boxing ring.

In the clip, Tyson’s fists are lightning quick as he throws them at Cordeiro’s pads. But it was one quick right hook that almost took the trainer’s head off.

“Precision!” Cordeiro – of Kings MMA in California – captioned the Instagram video.

Cordeiro seemed to be seeing stars momentarily but stayed on his feet following the punch. And judging by the light-hearted caption on the post, he seemed fine after the training session.

On Nov. 28, Tyson is scheduled to make his comeback during an eight-round boxing exhibition against Roy Jones Jr. in Carson, Calif.
