While New Zealand has recently knocked back a visa application from Mike Tyson, the former world heavyweight champion will not have any problems getting into Australia.

A spokeswoman from the country's Department of Immigration and Citizenship yesterday confirmed that Tyson has been granted a visa for his five day speaking tour.

The 46-year-old's 1992 rape conviction put the kibosh on his plans to visit New Zealand.
