American boxing legend Mike Tyson is still sparring with temptation and has said that he would not stop drinking or getting high but would hopefully not make a fool of himself.
According to the BBC, Tyson said, however, that he does not go to clubs anymore and does not have 45 girlfriends.
Now married to Kiki, his third wife, Tyson became the youngest world heavyweight champion in history when a single left hook in the second round floored Trevor Berbick three times, the report said.
Tragedy has been a regular visitor in his life and his voice dips as he recalls how, in 2009, his four-year-old daughter Exodus was killed in an accident involving a treadmill machine, the report added.
The father of six other children, Tyson's ambitions now are to become a better parent and to stay clean, the report further said.
