Mike Tyson on Oprah: Daughter Died

Mike Tyson on Oprah: Daughter Died

Former heavyweight championMike Tyson says he doesn’t want to know what led to his 4-year-old daughter’s death.

During an interview on “The Oprah Winfrey Show” that aired Monday, Tyson called his daughter Exodus “my angel.” Exodus died at a Phoenix hospital on May 26, a day after her neck apparently was caught in a treadmill cord.

Tyson told Winfrey that he didn’t want to know details of her death because “if somebody’s to blame for it there will be a problem.”

In an emotional interview, Mike Tyson tells Oprah Winfrey that he felt rage over his daughter Exodus’ death — and that’s why he doesn’t want to know what went wrong.

The boxing icon reveals he still doesn’t know how his little girl died in that fateful treadmill accident in May. “You don’t want to know?” Oprah asks. “If I know, then there might be a blame for it,” he replies. “And if there’s somebody to blame for it, there will be a problem.”

He added: “My first instinct was a lot of rage, you know, and I was so happy that I had the tools in life, you know, to not go in that direction because I’ve been that direction. I know where that’s gonna lead me. I know I’m not gonna win.”
