Legendary boxer Mike Tyson is not one to shy away from providing his opinion on anything and everything. Now, ‘The Baddest Man On The Planet’ has shifted his attention from trash-talking his rivals to lashing out at therapists. The boxer even labeled them liars and charlatans.

The iconic boxer had his fair share of issues throughout his career. He has previously admitted that he had been to rehab 20 times and credited it for saving his life.

However, in a surprising turn of events, he has backtracked of sorts. Speaking on BELOW THE BELT with Brendan Schaub regarding talking to therapists, Tyson said, “Why would I talk to them?”

The 54-year-old added, “I don’t believe they’re smarter than me.”

‘Iron Mike’ didn’t stop there. He followed it up with, “Those are just hustlers. They’re like snake oil sellers… They’re liars… They’re charlatans”
