Former world champion Mike Tyson made his return to the ring on November 28 against Roy Jones Jr. in an exhibition battle.
At the age of 20 years and 22 days, Mike Tyson, undoubtedly one of the best heavyweight boxers of all time, broke the previous record for the youngest World Championship champion. From 1987 through 1990, he was the undisputed Heavyweight Champion.
Mike Tyson, on the other hand, had a depressing life. He has gone through everything, from losing his mother at a young age to doing time in prison. Exodus’ death at the age of four marked him the most.
What caused Exodus Tyson’s passing?
Exodus, Mike Tyson’s four-year-old daughter, was tragically killed in an accident.
A treadmill machine cable was reportedly discovered wrapped around her neck at their Phoenix, Arizona, home by Exodus Tyson’s seven-year-old brother. The little boy notified his mother, who immediately began giving Exodus CPR before dialing 911.
Exodus was sent to the hospital and given life support. Mike Tyson, who was 42 at the time of the tragedy, was attending an event in Las Vegas. As soon as he heard the news, he left to Phoenix.
Exodus Tyson died on May 26, 2009, at 11:45.
Exodus was only playing around with the cables, according to Sgt. Andy Hill of the Phoenix Police Department, who talked with the media. At the time of the accident, she wasn’t using the treadmill, and the machine wasn’t even turned on.
“We think the kid was on the treadmill, although it wasn’t running at the time. She might have posed as someone else. For whatever reason, she was playing on the treadmill, and there’s a cord that loops under the console.
The loop functioned as a noose around her neck, and it was obvious that she was unable to release herself. Either she slipped or her head got stuck in the loop.” Nothing discovered throughout the study caused concern.
After learning of his daughter’s passing, Mike Tyson promptly issued a statement upon news of his demise, as is customary.
“Words are unable to express the tragic loss of our beloved Exodus. We humbly ask you to accept our need for privacy to grieve and work toward healing one another at this very trying time.”
Mike Tyson has spoken about the event many times over the years, but rarely with a level expression and a calm voice.
Five months after his daughter’s death, Mike Tyson came on Oprah Winfrey’s show and grieved while talking about her in one of the most well-known interviews of his.
Mike Tyson confessed that he had little interest in discovering the precise cause of his daughter’s death.
“There was no animosity. No one was the target of the fury. I don’t care how she passed away; I have no notion. I’ll have a problem if I figure out who’s to blame for it.
