He admitted back in 2010 that he appeared in “The Hangover” to fund his drug habit, but now Mike Tyson has confessed that he was high on cocaine during the actual filming of his iconic cameo. Check out the video below for more details -- as well as another interesting tidbit he reveals around 1:10!



Speaking to Yahoo! Sports, the 46-year-old admitted “I was a mess. I was overweight. I was a pig, high on cocaine.” He speaks about the cast -- Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, Zach Galifianakis and Justin Bartha -- who he says “had to know” that he was “messed up” because he “had the cocaine talk.”

He adds that “those guys are just beautiful people. They had my back, and I appreciate that.” However, although he also appeared in “The Hangover: Part 2,” Tyson has said that he won’t be returning for Part 3, saying “I have no idea what's going on, I'm not in this one.” Do you think that Mike Tyson needs help?

    I am surprised he has not been hired by the White House as a Czar.

    He needed help from day one. If not for boxing, he would have been in prison for life.

    Yes..but only if he requests it and can pay for it himself. Unfortunately for him..his aged mentor passed away early on in his career and then he simply careened out of control..and seems dumber than a box of rocks to boot. I can sympathize with a situation but he had the world and has thrown it all away..more than once. I suspect he will continue to do that until he changes his heart along with his bad habits.

    We all need help at one time or another. Stating it outloud, is the beginning step to getting the help he needs.

    Mr Tyson has needed help for a LONG time, when he admits he needs it, maybe he will avail himself of the opportunity,it is not like he is financially deprived.

    Let us count the ways. This guy had the world by the jewels and due to various self inflicted problems let it slip away. I don't think he even knows yet that he was his own worst enemy.

    The media that keeps pursuing him,presenting his dilemna of the day and the people that eat it up all need help.

    The guy is crazy. He was on the Oprah show and all that came out of his mouth were dirty indecent language. I recalled the many times he said the word "FUTK" to Oprah's face and the audience. He needs ettiquette language training

    mike needs all types of help. His head and body have taken a lot of abuse. His fame and fortune have evidently not done too much for him.

    He has never been wrapped tight. Just always has gotten away with his crap. Another millionaire moron moment.

    Yes but only if he wants it. You cannot force people to do things through your own good intentions and against their will. It is a sad fact of life but that is the way it is. I have been there many years ago.

    Mike after watching him over the years I suspect has some sort of thing like bi-polar disease that probably needs help from a psychiatrist and I hope he goes to one to get checked out. After seeing how Mike was when he was younger and how he is now is like day and night. Mike is much more relaxed now and is friendly not the old walking time bomb he used to be. I suspect he has had some attention brought to him about his disease and has probably been on medication but self medication with either street drugs or a grab bag of prescriptions is not the way to go for a sick man.

    Here's hoping the best for you Mike

    Since whenever did Mike Tyson not need help? He's been on a slump ever since
    he did what he did to Evander Holyfield.

    Seems like he's doing fine. If he can still party at his age and he's not hurting people (as he sometimes really did in his past), let the man go.
