Boxing steals all the headlines on Saturday night, but Sundays are for NFL football.
The world tuned in to watch Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez take the ring to face Edgar Berlanga, and the Puerto Rican managed to go the distance with Alvarez.
Now, sports fans might get to watch another boxing legend, this time at AT&T Stadium.
As shown by the NFL on social media, the one and only Mike Tyson arrived in Dallas to watch the Cowboys host the New Orleans Saints for their home opener.

The Cowboys are 6.5-point favorites at the time of writing, which isn’t much of a surprise after watching them steamroll past the Cleveland Browns to start the season.
Despite being on the road, Mike McCarthy’s team made a statement right out of the gate, with Micah Parsons putting the league on notice and showing that he could be dangerous under coach Mike Zimmer.
Dak Prescott also played as one would expect from the highest-paid quarterback in NFL history, and he’ll look to keep that momentum going against another tough opponent.
The Saints had a somewhat easy task ahead of them when they went against Bryce Young and the Carolina Panthers in Dave Canales’ head coaching debut.
Needless to say, things will be more difficult in a hostile environment and against a much better team, and it’ll be up to Derek Carr to prove that he’s the guy they hoped he’d be when they signed him after parting ways with the Las Vegas Raiders.
