Mike Tyson Admits He Smoked Weed Before Andrew Golota Fight

Mike Tyson originally won the famous 2000 fight, but it was ruled a no-contest.

Mike Tyson admitted he smoked weed before his famous fight against Andrew Golota in 2000.

In an interview with The Dan Patrick Show, Tyson said that was the only instance in which he used marijuana before one of his fights. He also said he didn't smoke after most of his fights.

When asked if it affected him, he said, "It didn't affect me. It affected Golota."

Tyson won the "Showdown in Motown" when Golota refused to continue fighting and not answering the bell for the third round. Tyson won by technical knockout.

But the fight was ruled a no-contest after Tyson tested positive for marijuana after the fight.

Tyson also talked about his "weed empire" on the show. He broke ground on a 40-acre ranch marijuana ranch earlier this year, according to the Washington Post.
