Danish heavyweight Brian Nielsen is coming out of retirement at age 45.
Promoter Kalle Sauerland says Nielsen has signed a deal for a comeback fight later this year, possibly in November.
Sauerland said no opponent had been lined up, but Danish tabloid Ekstra Bladet says Nielsen could fight 47-year-old former heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield.
Nielsen retired in 2003 after an 11-year pro career that included a loss to Mike Tyson in 2001. The Dane has a record of 64-2, with 43 knockouts.
