While he has been unable to put together enough consecutive wins to challenge for major titles yet, Tyson is highly regarded within the MMA community for both sporting success & promoting mental health awareness through various projects outside of competition that makes him one of more inspirational figures within combat sports today.

In recent years Tyson has been working hard not just inside but also outside of competition; most notably speaking about mental health issues which affects many fighters throughout their career such as depression & anxiety that’s why Tyson founded ‘Grappling With Anxiety’ where people can actively share stories/experiences about mental illness which was an initiative created so no fighter will feel alone when it comes down this subject matter; it also serves information that provides education on these topics too help others better understand how they may affect day-to-day life or even how someone could potentially seek assistance or support if needed which goes hand in hand with other initiatives like ‘Destigmatise Mental Health Awareness’ program held by UFC & Reebok to spread accurate research backed knowledge around psychological conditions while educating fighters (as well those involved) on recognising signs/symptoms related stress disorders etc …
