During a discussion on his podcast, "Hotboxin' with Mike Tyson," the former heavyweight boxing champion shared a surprising perspective on his health condition, sciatica, highlighting an unconventional benefit and offering a fresh outlook on coping with physical challenges.
Tyson, the renowned boxing legend, has been suffering from sciatica, a condition that occasionally demands the use of a wheelchair.
However, Tyson has surprisingly stated that there is an upside to using a wheelchair, which he revealed while speaking to Dr. Abhinav Gautam, a Connective Tissue Restoration Expert.
Tyson said, "Listen, the only good thing about being in a wheelchair, you go right in first class. In front of everybody in the airport bye all right first class yeah."
Dr. Gautam discussed his mother's battle with sciatica and her upcoming travel, "...Mike was dealing with it I mean just listen to what he said you’re gonna just skip all the lines yeah get straight on the plane get off the plane. We’ll pick you up-“
Tyson had some advice on this as well, "Yeah as soon as you get out they hold you get in the wheelchair, boom."
