Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr.’s fight was widely watched globally, with both fighters giving an amazing show of strength and endurance. The end result of the fight saw officials calling it a draw, which both disagreed with, but were okay with at the same time. When talking about the fight with reporters afterward, Mike Tyson revealed some unique info for boxers in this age of sports. Tyson noted that he was high.
When asked if he was high during the fight, Tyson said, “Absolutely yes… Listen, I can’t stop smoking. I smoked during fights. I just have to smoke, I’m sorry. I’m a smoker. … I smoke every day. I never stopped smoking. It’s just who I am. It has no effect on me from a negative standpoint. It’s just what I do and how I am and how I’m going to die. There’s no explanation. There’s no beginning, there’s no end.” While this may be news for the boxing world, Tyson has his own weed brand, and rules for the fight noted the fighters couldn’t use any drug except marijuana.
