Tyson stated that a psychedelic concoction of the ‘venom’ from the Sonoran Desert Toad paved a way for his return to boxing.
He mentioned he discovered a traditional healing ritual involving the ‘venom’. This, in turn, led to Tyson losing 100 pounds and taking up boxing again. He also reconnected with his wife and children.
Talking about his experience, Tyson said, “It speaks for itself. If you knew me in 1989 you knew a different person. My mind isn’t sophisticated enough to fathom what happened, but life has improved.”
