Unveiling the uncomfortable: Mike Tyson’s awkward fan encounters

During the recent episode of Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson, Tyson, and his co-hosts, Criss Angel and Sebastian Joseph Day, delved into the often-overlooked aspects of celebrity life, specifically awkward encounters with fans. It was during this discussion that Tyson revealed some truly eyebrow-raising incidents that transpired in the most unlikely of places: restrooms.

The boxing champion shared with his co-hosts, “Every time I’m going to the bathroom they are like, ‘MIKE TYSON CAN I TAKE A PIC?’ I’m getting ready to take a shit.”
