Mike Tyson gets his priorities in order: Marries his longtime girlfriend
I am not a stickler for everyone marrying their mates. But it took a tragedy like losing his daughter for former boxing champ Mike Tyson to put a ring on his longtime baby mother’s finger.
This comes as a surprise to some who have seen pics of Tyson with numerous white girls on his arms. But this goes along with what I said in an earlier post about women who stay in their lane when the man is providing for her and her children.
Former Heavyweight champ Mike Tyson, 42, married his longtime girlfriend Lakiha Spice, 32, in a civil ceremony at the Las Vegas Hilton on Saturday, June 6, 2009. This is Tyson’s third marriage. The couple wed two weeks after Tyson’s 4-year-old daughter Exodus was found hanging by a cord from a treadmill in her Phoenix home. The child died at a Phoenix hospital on May 26, 2009.

Whatever Sandra.
Congrats Mike.
Hope you make this one last. I’ll give him props. No matter how many failed marriages he has under his belt, he continues to try and get it right.
Well congrats to him.
But Auntie, I would like to know why you have such a negative disposition towards marriage.
why doesn’t Sandra go get a man to provide for her and some children?
WTF?? Who gets married 2 weeks after losing a CHILD? Unless it was already planned, something just dont seem right about this.
This situation is a WHOLE WORLD OF NO!!!
I mean…whatever happened to the MOURNING PERIOD?!?!
I just don’t know…
i didnt think they were even dating? he wasnt living in the same house as them. guess his daughters death made him want to turn his life around. hope it works out mike
I think the death of a child is the 2nd/3rd leading cause for divorce. Looks like it brought these two together.
the chick he just married is not the mother of exodus.
NOT a fan of multiple marriages…
Married/Divorced ONCE Already and that’s enough for me
And I actually know some people who have been married at least FOUR TIMES (Go Figure…)
LOL
@ Andrea I didn’t even peep that line in the article. You are correct her mother’s name is Sol Xochit. Go figure.
@ E Love I agree about mulitple marriages. That’s too much money to be paying to too many different women/men. Lol
I wonder if Robin still gets a check.
Sandra quick question hopefully you will ask. Since we all seem to like spend a lot of time discussing your gurlz Tiny and Monica maybe you could do a guest blogger type of deal. Like a set time readers could post questions etc and they could answer them. Since I believe a good number of readers reside in the A, could give deets on her salon etc and Monica could plug her business(es). Instead of “friends reading and relaying messages.” I know some artist do this occasionaly and its always done on the radio with listener questions. You could start a trend!
Congrats to Mike. Maybe he’ll get it right this time.
Whatever happened to the doctor he was married to? He was married to Michael Steels’s sister. I remember they made a big deal of showing him and her off and then we never heard anything else. Now he’s married again.
@Wiggy,
we don’t care about Tiny and Monica, we just use them to show Sandra’s hypocrisy. She will bash married folks like the Obamas and worship these two
OFF TOPIC
Did anyone see the pics of Roxie with Lisa Raye soon to be ex husband. (Ryhmes with snitch) on Christmas Day! She needs an old fashion drop kick to the chest.
dhoward took the thought outta my head. the doctor was named monica. so this chick cannot be that longtime cause him and monica are not that long ago over are they? idk.
congrats i guess? i am still mourning their little girls death so maybe they should be too? cause to me it sure was sad and i am a stranger….idk folks handle grief diff.
^^
i saw those pics. i didn’t want to believe that “wrecksi” was a homewrecker….
^^
that was in response to iscream….
@ iscream I saw those never cared for her with her psuedo ny accent growing up in Louisiana self, that just enforced my disdain. yo know ol gul Lisa is the one to do it too.
I hope he and his new wife receive some counseling (both mental and spiritual) because they have not had enough time to process the tragic death of their daughter.
Sidebar: TMZ.com and the Phoenix 911 Department are idiots for releasing the transcript of Lakiha Spicer’s frantic 911 call. Harvey, I am ashamed that you are a member of the bar. What an insensitive dumb azz!!!
maybe losing his daughter made him realize life can be taken from you at anytime. and this is something he wanted to do but put it off. i pray for the best for them
The woman he married is not the mother of the little girl who died.
Wow…”women who stay in their lane when the man is providing for her and her children.”
DAMN ‘A Drop Kick to the Chest’ LMAO
I GUESS that’s how KARMA FEELS… I’ll go ask Lisa-Raye
Truly sad about their daughter but congrats to them.
remember when robin givens tried to tell us he was crazy and everyone labeled ‘her’ a gold-digging bytch? then he bit evanders ear and that sealed the deal of his level of crazy?
i want to believe the marriage was in the works already and tragically, the situation with his daughter happened as the big day got closer.
