A resurfaced clip of Mike Tyson and P Diddy’s awkward interview has gone viral with viewers claiming the boxer moved the rapper’s hand away from his leg.
An old interview clip showing an awkward moment between Mike Tyson and Sean “Diddy” Combs has resurfaced in the wake of the latter’s arrest. In the video, the boxing legend appears to move the disgraced music mogul’s hand away from his leg while appearing together on Keenan Ivory Wayans’ show in 1998.
On Monday, Diddy was arrested and charged with sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution. The 54-year-old pleaded not guilty to the charges but was denied bail and remains in custody at the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn.
The clip has generated considerable buzz on X, amassing over 40,000 views as of writing. Some viewers suggested Tyson was moving Diddy’s hand away.
“Diddy was trying to touch Mike Tyson and Mike had to move his hand away,” one X user wrote, with another adding: “Mike Tyson knew what Diddy was all about, watch Mike move his hand away from his leg.”
Following Diddy’s arrest, droves of people online pointed out a previously awkward exchange between him and Tyson. While discussing a New York performance during which he took a tumble, the rapper recounted: “So I was performing and trying to give it my all, I was busting my —.
“I’m talking about when you fall flat on your back, but I tried to play it off. You know when you fall but you act like no one has seen you. You just keep on rocking. I was embarrassed for like weeks.”
Tyson humorously replied: “It truly is all about the Benjamins” – referencing Diddy’s song about making money.
It was then that Tyson seemed to grab Diddy’s hand, holding it up before shifting away on the couch. Diddy crossed his hands as the show cut to a break.
