Former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson has left netizens incredibly worried after revealing he feels his death is near.
While hosting therapist Sean McFarland, a specialist in trauma and addiction, on his "Hotboxin' with Mike Tyson" podcast the 56-year-old told Sean that he believes his expiration date is near..
Tyson said he had noticed parts of his body deteriorating recently which led to him wondering how long he has on earth.
"We're all gonna die one day of course," Tyson said before adding "Then, when I look in the mirror, I see those little spots on my face, I say, 'Wow. That means my expiration date is coming close, really soon."
Tyson also revealed that he doesn't feel as if money brings him happiness and security hinting that it really does not mean much to him and people only think it is the holy grail because they do not have it.
"Money doesn't mean ish to me."
"I always tell people, they think money's gonna make them happy, they've never had money before, when you have a lot of money, you can't expect nobody to love you. How am I gonna confess my love to you when you have 500 billion dollars?"
"The false sense of security. You believe nothing can happen. You don't believe the banks could collapse."Tyson said as he finished off the interview.
Before adding, "you believe that you're invincible when you have a lot of money, which isn't true. That's why I always say money is a false sense of security."
Tyson was in April at the center of a viral video storm where he was filmed throwing punches at a fan on a flight.
The pro boxer made it clear that he was really upset over what went down. Speaking during his podcast, Mike said, "He was f***ing with me, man. I took pictures with this n****."
Mike also pointed out that he knows there's always the chance someone will become "overly excited," and that's why his wife has been on him not to fly using a commercial flight services.
Mike added "I shouldn't even be taking public planes. A bodyguard and a f***ing yes man. What am I gonna do on a plane?"
He admitted situations like the one on JetBlue actually do trigger him and he acknowledged ultimately it was a lose/lose situation.
The passenger, who Mike continuously punched on his face, has lawyered up however the San Mateo County District Attorney said that because of the conduct of the victim leading up to the incident, no charges will be filed against either.
