Mike Tyson's daughter inherits dad's obesity gene

Is it me or does the name "Michael" not seem like a daughter-like name I'm sure she also has more to worry about than just being his daughter...probably get's ridiculed for the crazy things her dad does.





TYSON'S DAUGHTER INHERITS DAD'S OBESITY GENE





MIKE TYSON's daughter, MICHAEL, has one major regret about being the child of a heavyweight champion - she's inherited his family's obesity problem. The teenager has battled weight issues for years and insists her famous dad, who weighed in at 200 pounds (90.7 kilograms) when he was 13, would be huge if he wasn't so obsessed with staying in shape. She says, "My father's side, a lot of them, so I heard, are obese, like his sisters, his mother. "I believe if he wasn't a heavyweight champion, if he wasn't constantly working out or watching what he ate, he would be obese." The 15 year old is now hoping to use her heavy problem to her advantage, designing a clothing line for plus-size girls.

Yeah, something tells me the obesity gene is not the worst aspect of being Mike Tyson's daughter. It's tough to believe someone as fit as he was for so many years was a 200lb obese 13 y/o. Just shows how potent exercise and diet can be for anyone know matter what their genetics are.

That reminds me of George Foreman naming all five of his sons "Geroge" and one of his daughters, "Georgetta"

Just cause you're 200lbs and 13 doesn't necessarily mean you're obese...
Picture coming next Dec of a lean mean 190lb 13 year old machine.
