We know sex keeps you healthy, mentally and physically. But it can also… stop you from murdering someone? Apparently that was the case for Mike Tyson!

Via Fox News:

The former (and arguably still) Baddest Man on the Planet thankfully used pre-fight sex to keep himself from committing in-ring murder.

“Mike would say, ‘If I do not get laid, I will kill this guy right now,’” Tyson chauffeur Rudy Gonzalez told The Sun.

Tyson feared he’d kill his opponents if he didn’t first engage in some locker room banging.

“One of the greatest secrets with Mike was that he needed to have sex in the dressing room before fights,” said Gonzalez.

Tyson’s chauffeur-turned-pimp, Gonzalez, took it upon himself to line up pre-fight coeds before Tyson went sparring in the ring.

“He had to get laid to disengage some of the strength he had,” added Gonzalez. “So I had girls tucked away in bathrooms and changing rooms.”

Now that’s an amazing side effect of booty calls – you’re saving lives!
