At the age of 56, Mike Tyson no longer retains his body as before. In August, he was recorded by fans in a wheelchair before going to the airport. Although not in good health at that time, Mike was still happy to take pictures with fans.
“I had to sit in a wheelchair before boarding by sciatica. That disease once made me quickly go down while playing, and now he still does not let go of me. Every time the illness gets worse, I am so painful that I cannot speak,” Mike Tyson said.
Besides having to sit in a wheelchair and unable to speak, the sciatica caused Mike Tyson to have a stick to go. However, “steel fighters” are still quite optimistic in the scene of severe illness. He said he was happy because this was the only disease he was suffering from.
“Everyone in my family is blessed by God. We feel grateful to what we have,” Mike said. Not long ago, he used to make fans pessimistic by declaring that his health was not good, even feeling the death was approaching.
Mike Tyson was born in 1966. He started playing boxing in 1985, under the age of 19. Less than 2 years later, Mike won the first professional boxing championship in her career. At the age of 21, Mike successfully agreed to 3 WBA, WBC and IBF belts of Heavyweight.
