Tyson is apparently dealing with an ongoing back issue. He was spotted walking with a cane in July in New York City.

Tyson also made headlines in July when he spoke about coming to grips with death.
On an episode of his podcast, “Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson,” the former heavyweight champion discussed his mortality with guest Sean McFarland.
