Mike Tyson's bodyguard reveals the heavyweight champ 'would have sex with groupies before fights to diminish his power because he was scared of killing his opponents in the ring'
2021-11-20
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Mike Tyson was so scared of killing opponents in the ring, he often had sex with groupies before fights to diminish his strength, his former bodyguard claims

  • Bodyguard and chauffeur Rudy Gonzalez said he would tuck girls away 'in bathrooms and changing rooms' so Tyson could have sex with them before fights

  • The strategy may have worked. Tyson, now 55, never did kill anyone in the ring, although he bit off a piece of Evander Holyfield's ear in 1997, leading to a DQ

  • As Gonzalez explained, the ritual was born out of the champ's fear of killing another boxer: 'His biggest fear was that he would kill someone in that ring'

  • Gonzalez added that Tyson also 'had an anxiety problem where he would be in despair with anxiety of not feeling good enough or not wanting to screw it up'

#6  Can't argue with success.

Mike described his problem in life as having a big ego and low self esteem -- which gave mice elf an immediate That's It! epiphany. I had always wondered why I would be so insufferable so often. As John Astin's character said in Night Court, "I'm feeling much better now."
