Tyson, 55, features front and centre of Roberto Cavalli’s new campaign.

And he made the revelations in an interview to go with the shoot.

He was asked by GQ what clothes make him feel powerful and said: “Pink has a lot to do with it.

“If I’m wearing pink, I’m not going to have an expression like you want to talk to me.

“When I have on pink, I’m very serious. Pink makes me very masculine.

“I almost want to fight in those clothes. Those clothes make me want to fight a little.”

And when asked if he shops a lot, the multi-millionaire laughed and replied: “When I have the time to do it.

“But I’m not a healthy shopper. I’m a guy, I might buy something, ten years ago and never wear it.

“I have a Versace Marilyn Monroe James Dean shirt [from the designer’s legendary Spring 1991 Pop Art collection].

“I must have worn it five times in twenty years.

“I used to have all these glass shirts with glass beads and everythin – $50k (£36k), $70k (£50k) shirts. [Gianni Versace] made me feel so masculine and strong.”

Tyson has been training in the gym and looked terrifying in recent footage.
