Mike Tyson used to replace his urine sample with his wife’s and kid’s
Speaking to Jeff Novitzky, the current Vice President of Athlete Health and Performance for the UFC in his podcast, Mike Tyson revealed that he used a “Whizzinator”, a device that is used to fraud urine tests and stated that he used to put his wife’s and kid’s urine in it.
“It was awesome, man. I put my baby’s urine in it. And sometimes, one time I was using my wife’s and my wife was like ‘Baby you better not hope that it comes back pregnant or something,” Mike said in the podcast.
However, using your wife’s urine in place of yours has a different catch, in case the results indicated pregnancy. For this reason, Mike later turned to use his kid’s urine instead of his wife’s.
“And I said Nah, so we ain’t gonna use you any more, we’re gonna use the kid. Cuz I got scared that the pi** might come back pregnant,” the 54-year-old added.
Mike Tyson is set for a grand return to the boxing ring this month as he will take on former four-division champion Roy Jones Jr. in an exhibition bout on 28th November at the Staples Center.
