Mike Tyson admits he used his baby to pass drugs tests during heavyweight boxing career
Mike Tyson was able to trick officials by using his baby.
Mike Tyson used his baby to pass drug tests during his legendary boxing career.
Tyson enjoyed an iconic boxing career in the 90s and the early noughties, beating the likes of Larry Holmes, Michael Spinks and Frank Bruno.
His famous victory over Trevor Berbick, aged just 20 years and four months, saw him become the youngest world heavyweight champion in history – a record that still stands today.
At the height of his career, Tyson dabbled in substance use, including marijuana and cocaine.
But he manipulated his urine samples when he was tested for drugs during his career.
Speaking to Jeff Novitzky, who helped take down former Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong, ‘Iron’ Mike admitted to using a fake penis filled with his baby’s urine to pass drug tests.

“It was awesome, man. I put my baby’s urine in it. One time I was using my wife’s [urine] and my wife was like: ‘Baby, you better not hope that it comes back pregnant or something’,” he said of the device on an episode of Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson in 2020.
“And I said ‘Nah, so we ain’t gonna use you any more, we’re gonna use the kid’. Because I got scared that the piss might come back pregnant. That was what I was afraid of. I guess I heard of this happening because I was afraid of that.”

Novitzky, who now works with the UFC as its Senior VP of Athlete Health and Performance, told Tyson his fears were well placed.
He said: “A male [once] provided a urine sample and it came back and they said: ‘Sir, you’re pregnant. Either you’re pregnant or this is somebody else’s urine!”
Novitzky later asked Tyson if his prosthetic device looked like his actual penis considering the intimate nature of collecting urine samples.
He replied: “Hell yeah, I had a brown one.”
