Legendary professional boxer Mike Tyson on Wednesday spotted in a wheelchair, weeks after he said that his death is coming "really soon". He will be making his acting debut in Indian cinema with the Vijay Deverakonda-starrer 'Liger' on August 25.
According to aceshowbiz.com, the 56-year-old actor was wheeled through the terminal at Miami International Airport. He was carrying a walking stick with him while posing for selfies with fans. Dressed in all-white, he didn't seem to be in his best condition as he used a white towel to wipe his mouth.
Tyson was also seen with his walking stick earlier in New York . It appeared to be the same as the one he held in Miami, when making his way from his car to his hotel room.
Dismissing people's concerns, a source told TMZ that it was "nothing serious".
He was reportedly "dealing with a sciatica flare-up" in his back, which was described as some old "wear and tear" from living his life and an "occupational hazard for an athlete like Mike."
What caused more worry, however, Mike was talking about coming to grips with death in the same month during a conversation with his friend and therapist Sean McFarland.
"We're all going to die one day, of course," he said during his "Hotboxin' With Mike Tyson" podcast.
"When I look in the mirror and I see those little spots on my face," said Mike, "I say, 'Wow. My expiration date is coming close. Really soon'."
