"I free ball when I play tennis" - Nick Kyrgios makes crude confession on his tennis habits following Mike Tyson-Jake Paul fight

Aussie tennis star Nick Kyrgios made a bizarre revelation following the blockbuster boxing match between former undisputed heavyweight champion Mike Tyson and Youtube-turned-boxing star Jake Paul.

Paul bested Tyson, who is 31 years older than the former YouTuber, via unanimous decision. Although the fight was highly anticipated, an awkward moment occurred prior to the match. During an interview in Tyson's dressing room, Netflix, which broadcast the fight, showed the former boxer's bare backside on television.

With thousands of fans reacting to the hilarious moment, Kyrgios, who is not known for holding back, voiced his opinion on the matter. The former Wimbledon runner-up would go on to make a rather stunning revelation in an interview with Jase and Lauren on Nova 100.

"Just off the back of Tyson, you always wear pants in the dressing room, don't you?" asked Jase. Just in case the camera grabs."

"I actually don’t! I free ball!" replied Kyrgios. "Fun fact for you guys, I free ball when I play tennis, so when I'm playing the Grand Slams, you can just picture me now, free balling… fun fact for you!
"I need to feel it nice and free down there when I got break points."

Kyrgios is is set to make a return to the tennis court later this December at the World Tennis League exhibition event in Abu Dhabi. The former World No.13 has been battling with injuries over the last two years, but has set his sights on competing in front of home fans at the 2025 Australian Open.
