Ilir Latifi gebruikt zijn sterke worstelgame om Pedro 15 minuten te domineren op de grond. Latifi won het gevecht zodoende vrij eenvoudig via Unanimous Decision. Pedro keerde vervolgens terug in de Octagon in Februari 2018 tijdens UFC 221 in Perth. Pedro nam het op tegen de Rus Saparbek Safarov. Pedro won het gevecht in de eerste ronde via een zeer spectaculaire Kimura Submission. Mede door die overwinning mocht Pedro opdraven tijdens het Co-Main Event van UFC Singapore in Juni 2018 tegen Ovince St.Preux. Pedro leek OSP vroeg in de eerste ronde te gaan finishen. Echter wist OSP de partij om te keren en Pedro via Straight Armbar Submission te finishen. Dit overkwam Pedro wederom in December 2018 tijdens UFC Adelaide. MMA legende Mauricio "Shogun" Rua versloeg Pedro via TKO in de derde ronde nadat Pedro de Braziliaan in de eerste ronde in grote problemen had. Pedro zou vervolgens tijdens UFC Auckland in Februari 2020 gaan vechten tegen de Braziliaan Vinicius Moreira. Echter gooide een blessure roet in het eten voor de Australiër. Drieënhalf jaar na zijn partij tegen Shogun keerde Pedro terug in de UFC tegen Ike Villanueva. Pedro vocht sterk en won via TKO in de eerste ronde. Ditzelfde kunststukje flikte hij ook in Augustus 2022 tegen Harry Hunsucker. Helaas voor de Australiër ging het in Februari 2023 mis voor eigen publiek. Modestas Bukauskas was via Unanimous Decision te sterk. Ruim een half jaar later revancheerde Pedro zich met een knock-out overwinning in de eerste ronde tegen Anton Turkalj. Pedro vocht vervolgens in 2024 tegen Vitor Petrino. De Australiër verloor via Unanimous Decision en ging met pensioen.

Pedro made his promotional debut against Khalil Rountree on November 15, 2016, at UFC Fight Night: Whittaker vs. Brunson. He won the fight via submission in round 1, for which he was awarded a Performance of the Night bonus.

Tyson’s respect for Zedong came while in prison where he read several books about the leader. It was while inside that Tyson decided to get a portrait tattoo of Zedong, with his name "Mao" tattooed underneath. In 2006 Tyson visited the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall, with the Chicago Tribune reporting Tyson said, "Standing in front of Chairman Mao’s remains, I felt really insignificant. To have the chance to visit the memorial hall is a great honor for me."

As boxing fans eagerly anticipate the exhibition match between former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson and professional boxer Jake Paul, scheduled for July 20, 2024, at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas and streamed globally on Netflix, there’s more to Mike Tyson than his legendary status in the ring.

The legal action renewed claims of cultural appropriation but also saw some Māori tā moko artists defend Whitmill. Legal scholars have highlighted how the case juxtaposes Māori and Anglo-American attitudes on ownership of images. Despite never making it to trial, the case has been widely discussed in the context of the copyrightability of tattoos, a matter which has never been fully resolved in the United States.

Mike Tyson's "warrior" tattoo was inked by Las Vegas tattooist S. Victor Whitmill in 2003. From the time of Tyson's firstpublic appearance with the tattoo, Maori activists and scholars were critical of it as a cultural appropriation of ta moko. Tyson's tattoo is monochrome, curvilinear, features two spiral shapes, and was placed around his left eye. Whitmill has described the "flow": of Maori art as a design influence, and he created it after showing Tyson pictures of Maori moko. In Maori culture, facial moko is a privilege reserved for respected cultural insiders, and it represents and embodies the wearer's sacred genealogy and social status. Appropriating an individual's moko is profoundly offensive and akin to identity theft.

"So I'm just like, F*ck it, like, why not just do it because Tyson did jake paul get a face tattoo like mike tyson it? It's a story behind Tyson's face tat is, it was like Wednesday of his fight week, and he just got it, and he showed up to the presser the next day with the face tat and he didn't tell anybody. So I'm thinking about doing that in honor."

Tyson’s face tattoo has sparked countless conversations, debates, and even controversy. It challenges the status quo and invites people to question their own perceptions of beauty and self-expression.
