Thumbs down Mike Tyson's 4 year old daughter has died

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,522065,00.html

say what you want to about Tyson, but he's dealt with quite a bit of shit in his life and this only adds to it.

definitely a tragedy

definitely the first thing that came to mind when I heard this.

he's got a history of depression and with his fall from grace and financial problems I am honestly hoping he's able to keep his head on somewhat straight throughout this.

RIP indeed

Exactly, I don't think it would be something we would see immediately. He's really seemed to get on the right track lately, you don't hear much about his financial troubles, or him getting into any kind of trouble. Hopefully it stays that way

yeah i've always found tyson a great entertainer whether intentionally trying to do so or not, but i've also always been a big fan. still love watching his fights on ESPN Classic when they air them, minus the douglas fight of course

yeah he could have changed some things but he was young and didn't have people around him with the best of intentions and it didn't help his matter at all

definitely hoping for the best for tyson

Yes that is very sad. Mike Tyson has had so many problems in his life, some his own fault certainly, but wow. Everytime he seems to be on the right track another tragedy.

True. In a recent interview on jimmy kimmel it seemed he finally matured & was on the right track

Sad tragedy, not sure he can get past this one. Rip

the death of any child is a horrible horrible tragedy. As it is here.

Can't help but wonder if there isn't some sort of karma type thing happening to him. Sometimes bad things happen to good people. And sometimes bad things happen to bad people.

Seth: Fogell, this ID says that you're 25 years old. Why wouldn't you just put 21, man?
Fogell: Seth, Seth, Seth. Listen up, ass-face: every day, hundreds of kids go into the liquor store with fake IDs, and every single one says they're 21. Pssh, how many 21 year olds do you think there are in this town? It's called f*cking strategy, alright?

I think he might have got screwed on that rape charge he served time for, who knows? He is not a real intellegent guy as we all know. He is in the new movie The Hangover and I saw him in a biography were he seemed to be maturing like you said Dr. Jack. I feel for the guy because he seems unable to find any peace in his life even at this age and after his fame. I hope he holds it together through this sad situation. Guy just seems cursed.
