Former world boxing heavyweight champion Mike Tyson is set to make his comeback after a year out of the ring against US-based Kevin McBride of Ireland.

Tyson's agent Shelly Finkel said the fight would probably be held in Louisville, Kentucky on July 30.

Tyson has fought less than a minute in the last two years. He took 49 seconds to knock out Clifford Etienne in February last year in his first fight since being thrashed by Britain's Lennox Lewis in June 2002.
