Mike Tyson and Diddy have been close friends for years. They attended a boxing match together in 2004, partied together at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival, and attended many other events. Mike Tyson spoke about their great friendship in an interview last year, calling Diddy “a great guy” and jokingly calling him “Sugar Diddy.”
Mike Tyson himself had a turbulent personal life, just like his close friend. The “Iron Fist” was the world heavyweight boxing champion in the 1980s. But his career was overshadowed by controversy. In 1992, Mike Tyson was convicted of raping Miss Teen Desiree Washington and was sentenced to 3 years in prison. In 1997, just 1 year after his release from prison, Mike Tyson bit his opponent’s ear and was suspended from competing. In his divorce petition, ex-wife Robin Givens accused Mike Tyson of domestic violence. The boxer also declared bankruptcy in 2003 and retired in 2005.
Mike Tyson also has a rather scandalous personal life.
Diddy was arrested in New York (USA) on September 16. This tycoon was accused of a series of serious crimes of sex, prostitution, extortion… but pleaded not guilty in the trial held on September 17. Previously, Cassie Ventura – Diddy’s ex-girlfriend – accused and filed a lawsuit against the rapper for “using money and power to cover up evidence of physical and mental abuse”.
One week after Diddy’s arrest, the U.S. Security Investigations Bureau publicly released an indictment exposing the crimes of this “sexual predator” to the light and causing global shock. Accordingly, Diddy and members of the Combs Enterprise group, including senior supervisors, security personnel, family staff and personal assistants, were accused of organizing many Freak Offs – gatherings of sex and drug use.
During these gatherings, the hip-hop star was accused of beating, throwing objects, and physically and mentally abusing his victims to force them to engage in maniacal acts of his choosing. The attacks were described as “often causing injuries that took days or weeks to heal.” In addition, Diddy controlled his victims in a variety of ways, including physical violence, promises of job opportunities, threats to cut off financial support, and other coercive measures, including monitoring their whereabouts and medical records, and providing them with addictive substances.
More than 120 victims have come forward, but Diddy still denies the charges. The rapper has applied for bail three times but has been denied each time. The rap mogul’s trial is set for May 5, 2025.
