"Psychedelics is an enhancement more than a de-enhancement," Tyson said when discussing the healing properties of the drugs. "It allows you to go in that realm of just comfortability, relaxness, and prepare to reach your highest level. It's just an amazing feeling."

Tyson said he used psychedelics during a recent training session, expressing his wish that he had tried them during his fighting years.

Tyson, who went 50-6 in his boxing career, also touted the use of cannabis, saying he wished he used it during his career to help him personally. 

"We always thought cannabis was a de-enhancer, made you tired, made you weak, but it actually made you more alert and more studious to your field, to your profession," Tyson told TMZ Sports.

He last stepped into the ring two and a half years ago when he fought Roy Jones Jr. in an exhibition, but said he could be persuaded to fight again. 

"I’m just chillin' out. I did that. I wanted to do that. I did that," Tyson told TMZ Sports earlier in April when discussing his bout with Jones Jr.
