Mike Tyson Seen 'Limping Heavily,' Walking With Cane; Believes His 'Expiration Date' Is Soon

Boxing legend Mike Tyson was spotted walking around New York City with a cane for support.

The 56-year-old "Iron Mike" was seen “limping heavily” while making his way to his hotel from the car by fans and photographers at the scene on Tuesday.

But according to TMZ Sports, fans have nothing to worry about for Tyson was not injured and was only dealing with “a bit of normal, wear-and-tear problems.”

"He’s dealing with a sciatica flare-up," an unnamed source told the outlet. “Nothing serious. Just an occupational hazard for an athlete like Mike.”

Before the former Heavyweight champion's appearance in the Big Apple, Tyson expressed his worries about dealing with the “death thing” in his “Hotboxin” podcast alongside DJ Whoo Kid, 49, on July 14. The episode featured therapist and interventionist Sean “Seano” McFarland.

In a clip shared via Twitter by user @mymixtapez, the retired athlete said, “We’re all gonna die, one day, of course, then when I look in the mirror, I see those little spots on my face and say, ‘Wow that’s my expiration date is coming close, really soon.’”

Tyson then asked his long-time therapist about dealing with death while growing older.

“I don’t worry about it. I’m not sweating it. I just want to die consciously; I don’t want to die screaming,” McFarland answered.

He continued, “[And] I’ve heard the last rights of a lot of people, a lot of famous people, and they’re getting ready to die, and they leave this planet screaming. New York Times says this, and the vanity therapies but they become scared little boys in the end because they’re not right with truth and they’re haunted by all their demons.”

While the video did not show why Tyson brought up the topic, social media users had different interpretations of Iron Mike’s statement.

“[Two] things in life we can't escape, death n taxes. Mike, fortunately, your legacy will live on, thru all you have accomplished in your record-breaking career. Imagine facing 'the end' knowing no one will remember or honor you?” one user wrote.

“Lol bro he was saying he getting up in age yall gas everything,” another commented.

The full-episode podcast posted on the “Hotboxin' with Mike Tyson” YouTube channel showed that the topic was brought up following a conversation about handling ego, material wealth, and having “financial security” — a topic Tyson would often argue over with his wife Lakiha Spicer, 44.

“Even now, money only mean[s] s--t to me. My wife and them, enjoy making enough. They don’t mean s--t to me because I always tell people they think a lot of money is going to make them happy. They never had a lot of money before, you know, when you have a lot of money, you can’t expect nobody to love you,” Tyson said.

He added, “It’s just that it’s a false sense of security. You believe nothing can happen; you don’t believe the banks can crash. You believe that you’re invincible when you have a lot of money which isn’t true.”

Meanwhile, Hulu launched a new trailer for “Mike,” a series about the controversial boxing champion, who will be played by Trevante Rhodes, 32. The trailer showed the “darker and grittier” parts of Tyson’s complicated past, E! News reported.

“Mike” premieres on Hulu on Aug. 25.
