Tyson shared, “I’ve been sober for 12 days and it’s tough. I’m mean and irritable,” adding, “I don’t know if I like this sober guy.”

The Hangover actor also discussed spending three years in jail after being convicted of raping “Miss Black America” contestant Desiree Washington in 1991, saying, “I don’t really think I need to make amends for that because I’ve done nothing… I didn’t rape her.”

Mike Tyson has admitted to lying about being sober, telling reporters, “I’m on the verge of dying, because I’m a vicious alcoholic.”

The former heavyweight champ made the revelation during a startling press conference on Friday (see video below).

After veering into an unexpected tangent about wishing to “make amends” with everyone he’s hurt, Tyson declared, “I’m a bad guy sometimes. I did a lot of bad things, and I want to be forgiven.”

He continued, “So in order for me to be forgiven, I hope they can forgive me. I wanna change my life, I wanna live a different life now. I wanna live my sober life. I don’t wanna die. I’m on the verge of dying, because I’m a vicious alcoholic.”

Tyson says he’s ready to start anew.

“I haven’t drank or took drugs in six days, and for me that’s a miracle,” announced the boxing legend. “I’ve been lying to everybody else that think I was sober, but I’m not. This is my sixth day. I’m never gonna use again.”

Neil Patrick Harris opened the Tony Awards with an entertaining musical number that TMZ, The Daily Mail and other outlets are now trying to mar by falsely suggesting the actor dropped the N-word in Mike Tyson’s face.

The bizarre allegation — that Harris would use a racial epithet with Tyson during a much-rehearsed national TV performance — tries to create confusion about a lyric in which the “How I Met Your Mother” star clearly uses the word “bigger.”

TMZ writes, “We’ve played it back dozens of times, and can’t come up with another explanation [than Harris using the N-word].”

He didn’t use it.

This is a phony controversy.

On Monday, Harris tweeted, “Really, Daily Mail?!? The N-word? That’s your story?!? I would NEVER be so disrespectful and frankly, neither should you.”

We couldn’t agree more.
