Mike Tyson claims he knows what happened to Jamie Foxx that caused the actor’s long hospitalization for a mystery ailment. While Foxx’s family has not made any statement about the actor public, Tyson has inside information about the actor. Plus, he thinks he knows what happened.

Here is what Tyson said about Foxx and his medical condition.

Mike Tyson says Jamie Foxx suffered a stroke

Mike Tyson was on the PBD Podcast and talked about the Jamie Foxx medical emergency. While Foxx’s family has kept his medical condition under wraps for privacy purposes, Tyson said that he was told what happened to the actor. According to Tyson, he said that Foxx was not feeling well, and “they said a stroke.” He then later said he had “no idea what happened to him.”

In the interview, Tyson said that Foxx’s family didn’t release any information and this means “they don’t want us to know” what happened to the actor. Tyson did discuss the idea of mortality by saying that “We can’t anticipate our next breath. We don’t know when we are gonna die.” He also said that once they are dead, “bad stuff can happen.”

The idea of a stroke does sound legitimate based on previous information. Foxx ended up in a hospital for three weeks with many people worried he wouldn’t make it out alive. He then checked into a Chicago rehab center that is touted as one of the top in the country. The center specializes in stroke recovery, traumatic brain injury rehab, spinal cord injury rehab, and cancer rehabilitation. Sources also say that he is recovering well.

Jamie Foxx was going to make a Mike Tyson movie

The reason Mike Tyson knows a little about Jamie Foxx is because the actor was preparing to make a movie based on the boxer’s life. However, that movie is now questionable with Foxx’s medical emergency. “Well, it was a possibility. I don’t know what’s going to happen now. But, you know, it’s a strong possibility,” Tyson said. He did say that since they are the same age, they would have to do something like Benjamin Button and make Foxx look younger.

This was going to be a miniseries with Antoine Fuqua (Training Day) to direct and Martin Scorsese connected as a producer. Tyson said that the limited series would span his entire life. This series would follow the Hulu series that Tyson spoke out again when it was released. This would be another biopic for Foxx, who also played Ray Charles in Ray. That movie won Foxx an Oscar for Best Actor.
