Former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson, who owes more than $38 million to various creditors, the Internal Revenue Service and his ex-wife, Monica, announced he is selling the two George Foreman Grill he bought more than three years ago on e-Bay to help pay down debt. “This lean, mean fat-reducing grilling machine is an impregnable piece of steel and plastic perfect for preparing quick, low-fat meals for one or two people,” writes Tyson on the website.

“The ferocious, double-sided grill surface heats in less than five minutes to a temperature perfect for grilling most foods, leaving choice meats and chicken discombobulatingly sumptuous.” Tyson added that if you want to help him out but already own a George Foreman grill, you can always send him toothpaste, toilet paper and socks.
