Mike Tyson has claimed he is on the brink of dying from drink and drug abuse.
The ex-heavyweight champion boxer said he is still a “vicious” alcoholic and lied for years that he was sober.
Tyson, 47, said: “I’m a bad guy. I did a lot of bad things and I want to be forgiven. I want to change my life. I want to live my life sober.
“I don’t want to die. I’m on the verge of dying because I’m a vicious alcoholic.”
Tyson said he had not had drink or drugs in six days, and added: “I’ve been lying to everybody else that think I was sober, but I’m not.
“This is my sixth day. I’m never going to use again.”
He has been in rehab three times and in 2012 said he had been sober for three years.
Tyson, speaking in New York, said he thought of killing himself five years ago. But the 2009 death of his daughter Exodus, four, who was strangled by a cord while playing on a treadmill, made him realise he must change.
