Iron Mike Tyson is now 47 years old and he's about to enter a new chapter in his life and career.  Friday night, August 23rd at the Turning Stone Resort and Casino, the former Heavyweight Champion will be debuting his promoting career.

There seems to be resurgence in his career as of late with recent movies, the new HBO Special, an auto-biography and now a new real-life role as boxing promoter.

"I'm in a very happy place in my life," he told Keeler during the interview.  When asked about Don King who he posed with earlier in the week at the Nevada Boxing Hall of Fame, Tyson simply said he was working on 'forgiveness' and moving on with his life.

The Turning Stone hosts boxing on Friday, August 23rd at 7:00 p.m..  The night will be live on ESPN and will feature a card promoted by Tyson's new company, Iron Mike Boxing.

Check out the full interview with Keeler:  

Tyson, who seems to be turning his life around, talked about his new career, the state of boxing and about his happy marriage.
