American boxing legend Mike Tyson said he feels “near death” in comments that drew sympathy from his fans.

The 56-year-old former heavyweight boxing champion spoke on a podcast with Sean McFarland, an American trauma and addictions psychotherapist.

“Of course we’re all going to die someday,” Tyson said. “When I look in the mirror, I see these little spots on my face and I’m like, ‘Wow! This means my expiration date is very close.”

Tyson, one of the most famous boxers of all time, added that no amount of wealth brings happiness and security, as many believe, explaining: “Money means nothing to me.”

“I always tell people that they think money will make them happy,” he continued, referring to “a false sense of security. You think that nothing can happen. You don’t believe banks can fail.”

Tyson explained, “You think you’re invincible when you have a lot of money, but that’s not true. That’s why I always say money is a false sense of security.”

Tyson rose to prominence from a young age, becoming the youngest heavyweight champion in history after defeating Trevor Berbick in 1986 at the age of 20 and winning 50 of 58 pro fights before retiring.

He retired after losing to Kevin McBride in 2005.
