Former undisputed heavyweight champion of the world "Iron" Mike Tyson
has issued a statement via an African website denying stories claiming
he has had a sex change.
The bizarre story stems from a spoof news
item from a British satirical website, which hoodwinked a number of
online publications in Africa.
Zambian website Zambia Watchdog is also thought to have published the story, but it has subsequently been removed.
Quotes attributed to Tyson in the story stated: "Some people might think it strange that I’m now a woman.
"But
even at the height of my career, when pound for pound I was regarded as
the best fighter in the world, I never lost touch with my feminine side
and knew that one day I would grow breasts and have a vagina."
However,
Tyson has since been quoted on SpyGhana as saying: "I am still a man
and I have always been fully in touch with my masculinity and have no
intention of becoming a woman.
"The claims are not only untrue but
unbelievably stupid. I was at the Pacquiao-Marquez fight on Saturday
and any reasonable person could tell I was looking like a man."
The
story went on to suggest he wanted to replace his long-standing
nickname of "Iron Mike" with "Iron Maiden", and change his name from
Mike to Michelle after a successful 16-hour operation.
Comic
writer John O'Farrell from NewsBiscuit told the BBC: "We've had half as
many visitors from Africa in the last few days as we'd expect generally
in a whole month."

Former undisputed heavyweight boxing champion of the world Mike Tyson
is said to be ‘feeling fine’ after undergoing successful gender
reassignment surgery at a clinic near Beverley Hills. Once known as ‘The
Baddest Man on the Planet’, the Brooklyn-born boxer told reporters that
having his first menstrual cycle ‘would be a dream come true’, and that
from now on he would be known as Michelle.
‘Some people might think it strange that I’m now a woman,’ said
former rapist Tyson, who underwent complete facial feminization, orbital
bone contouring and nasal surgery in an operation lasting over 16
hours. ‘But even at the height of my career, when pound for pound I was
regarded as the best fighter in the world, I never lost touch with my
feminine side and knew that one day I would grow breasts and have a
vagina.’
Iron Mike – or Iron Maiden as he now likes to be called – was given
the all-clear for gender reassignment surgery following a successful
course in hormone replacement therapy which, in his autobiography, the
boxer blamed for his 1996 defeat at the hands of Evander Holyfield.
Although at the time Tyson insisted he was fit enough to carry on with
the fight, referee Mitch Halpern stopped the bout in the 11th round
saying Tyson looked flushed, was sweating profusely and appeared to be
lactating heavily from his left breast.
Tyson, wearing a blonde wig and looking relaxed in blue jeans and a
Vanessa Bruno T-shirt, today said he hoped having a clitoris would
finally convince the American people that his ‘bad-boy’ days were over
and he had turned over a new leaf. ‘I’m even keeping my surgically
removed penis in a jar by my bedside to remind me what those sick
perverts did to us pretty boys in prison.’
Although boxing commentators were initially stunned by Tyson’s
revelation, many have admitted the signs were there. ‘In hindsight, he
had shown a fondness for dressing up in gloves, long leather boots and
silk gowns, and he always had a really close interest in earrings.’
