Mike Tyson Surprises Logan Paul with Magic Mushrooms on Podcast

In a surprising moment during an appearance on Logan Paul's podcast, "Impaulsive," former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson revealed his use of magic mushrooms while preparing for his upcoming boxing match against Jake Paul. The 58-year-old Tyson, who is set to return to the ring on November 14, was asked by Logan about his cannabis intake, to which Tyson admitted he had reduced it slightly. However, the conversation took an unexpected turn when Tyson produced a bag of psilocybin mushrooms from his pocket, stating, "I have to take them when I train." Tyson elaborated on his training regimen, claiming that the mushrooms enhance his experience, saying, "I feel so beautiful, it takes me to heaven, baby." He further explained that even when not actively consuming mushrooms, he would still be under their influence, referring to it as "residue of mushrooms." This candid admission has sparked discussions about the role of psychedelics in sports training and performance. The upcoming match against Jake Paul has faced scrutiny, especially after Tyson's recent medical emergency that forced a postponement. This bout will be officially sanctioned by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulations, marking Tyson's first professional fight since his 2005 loss to Kevin McBride. Notably, the fight will feature unique rules, including 14oz gloves and two-minute rounds, which Jake Paul claimed were requested by Tyson himself.
