Mike Tyson insists a severe case of foot fungus is “kicking his a***”.<\/strong><\/p>\n The former undisputed heavyweight champion had been suffering from the infection in silence, but opened up about his struggles during a Tuesday night taping of Jimmy Kimmel Live.<\/p>\n Kimmel picked up on the fact that Tyson never wears socks and so asked him why.<\/p>\n “I only used to [not wear socks] for fighting, where that was my image,” Tyson replied.<\/p>\n “It was real hardcore, no socks. Then I discovered I had a very disintegrating dose of foot fungus.<\/p>\n \u201cAnd it was really bad. It\u2019s still really bad now.\u201d<\/p>\n Kimmel then quipped: \u201cWould you say that foot fungus is your greatest opponent of all?\u201d<\/p>\n To which, Tyson joked: \u201cWell, I would have to say so because it\u2019s still kicking my a*** now.”<\/p>\n Foot fungus can traditionally be treated with creams, sprays and powders from a pharmacy.<\/p>\n However, Tyson insists he has tried these methods to no avail.<\/p>\n \u201cDesenex cannot help me,” added Tyson. “My toes look like they blew up.\u201d<\/p>\n During the final face-off for his comeback fight with Jake Paul last November,\u00a0Tyson slapped the YouTuber-turned-boxer after he stepped on his toes.<\/p>\n There appeared to be minimal contact from Paul, but Tyson’s latest admission explains why he flipped out.<\/p>\n \u201cI was in my socks and he had on shoes,\u201d Tyson told\u00a0The Post\u00a0moments after the weigh-in.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cHe stepped on my toe because he is a f****** a***hole. I wanted to think it happened by accident.<\/p>\n “But now I think it may have happened on purpose. I was in a lot of pain. I had to reciprocate.\u201d<\/p>\n Boxing fans had hoped that Tyson’s bout with Paul would be his last.<\/p>\n However, the 59-year-old has since\u00a0announced an upcoming exhibition bout with Floyd Mayweather.<\/p>\n The Wilkes-Barre\/Scranton Penguins won their second game in a row on Wednesday.\u00a0<\/p>\n After beating the Utica Comets on Saturday, they beat the Bridgeport Islanders 5-4 in a shootout. Rafael Harvey-Pinard scored the game-winning goal in a shootout with a nice move. He came in with a lot of speed and made a nice deke on the Bridgeport goaltender. He went forehand, then backhand.\u00a0<\/p>\n Harvey-Pinard was signed by Penguins general manager and president Kyle Dubas during the offseason and was with the team during training camp before he was reassigned to WBS. He has played in 12 games, scoring two goals and recording five points.\u00a0<\/p>\n It looked like Sam Poulin was going to be the hero after making it 4-3 with 3:11 to go in the third period until Bridgeport tied it with less than a minute left. It set the stage for Harvey-Pinard’s shootout winner in the fifth round.\u00a0<\/p>\n This win got the WBS Penguins to 10-3-1, which is good for 21 points. They’re in first place in the Atlantic Division, but each team behind them has at least one game in hand on them.\u00a0<\/p>\n WBS will play Bridgeport again on Friday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Mike Tyson insists a severe case of foot fungus is “kicking his a***”.
