“You’re Not the Best Dad”: Mike Tyson Brutally Honest About How His Daughter Gives Him a Hard Time

Like any doting father, Mike Tyson rejoices in sharing bits and pieces of his life with his growing-up kids. The undisputed world Heavyweight champion cherishes every moment he gets to spend with them. He ensures that he stands alongside each of his children, who are at different stages of education and careers. But at times, the brood, not missing any chance, pick on the head of the family, to his utter amusement.

Mike Tyson’s eldest child, Mikey Lorna Tyson, was born to Kimberly Scarborough, with whom the former champion had a relationship. Likewise, with Sol Xochitl, he had two children, Miguel and Exodus, who sadly passed away in 2009. So roughly nine years after his first marriage to Robin Givens ended in divorce, he married Monica Turner. The marriage lasted six years, with the couple becoming parents to Amir and Ramsey. Finally, in 2009, he settled down with Lakiha Spicer. They are parents to Milan and Morocco.

Fans often come across pictures and footage of the legend accompanied by one of his children. His daughter Milan who inherited her father’s athleticism seems to have developed a passion for Tennis. The proud father has often been sighted by her side. But, interestingly, according to Tyson, Milan appears to be at variance with the idea of having one of the greatest boxers in history for a father.

Hold on, Daddy-O; Mike Tyson reflects on how his children kid around him

In conversation with sports journalist Stephen A Smith, who joined him and Sebastian Joseph Day in Hotboxin’s latest episode, ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ elaborated on what Milan mentioned about him. So Smith, who had been explaining about staying at the top of his career, said that he undergoes a complete change when he is with his daughters. He said, “I can tell you I take reprieves like when I’m with my daughters, it’s like I’m daddy, so it’s like everything calms down because it’s the one thing that makes me smile….“

It was ‘Iron’ Mike’s turn. Enjoying the DadTalk, he shared how his kids give him a hard time. For instance, if he asked his daughter, “Hey Milan, how does it feel to have as far as it’s the greatest father since the greatest Fighters since the beginning of time?” And to his surprise, she asks why he talks like this. Mike Tyson continued, “She said Dad what why do you talk like that you’re illiterate that’s not true that my daughter you’re not the best dad.“

It instantly got everyone in splits. Then Stephen A. Smith also narrated how his daughters would react when people, recognizing him immediately, would throng to take pictures and selfies. According to the noted journalist, his children will ask what all those folks want with him and question him in turn, why him of all the people!
