Mike Tyson was recently spotted talking to himself at a Serena Williams tennis match earlier this week. Tyson appeared to be in seventh heaven as fans reacted to the video on Twitter.

'Iron Mike' spends much of his time smoking weed and eating mushrooms, which he confirmed in an interview with Muscle and Health Magazine.

Mike Tyson once claimed that psychedelics and weed changed his life and helped him cope with suicidal thoughts
Being the baddest man on the planet comes at a cost. In combat sports, Mike Tyson commands unparalleled admiration and immense respect from his peers. However, his life outside the squared circle has been a rollercoaster ride and Tyson had to face many demons before he freed himself from the shackles.
All the memorable fights and highlight reel knockouts that 'Iron Mike' delivered in the ring took a heavy toll on him. It even pushed him to the brink of suicide.
Tyson found comfort and a cure in the use of psychedelics. While speaking with Reuters in a past interview, he claimed that his life changed when he was introduced to mushrooms:
''To think where I was - almost suicidal - to this now. Isn't life a trip, man? It's amazing medicine, and people don't look at it from that perspective. Once I got introduced to the shrooms, my whole life changed."
Speaking about his relationship with cannabis and how it would not have benefited him during his fighting years, Mike Tyson added:
“Cannabis is good to workout on for me. I just wish I was smoking back when I was fighting. I really lost out there from an athlete’s perspective. If I’d smoked during my boxing career, I probably wouldn’t have been so aggressive."
