Mike Tyson Sent a Letter to Donald Trump on Diddy’s Behalf: ‘I Did What He Told Me to Do’
Sean "Diddy" Combs continues to seek a pardon from President Trump.
Mike Tyson recently opened up about a unique request he received from Sean "Diddy" Combs while incarcerated. In an interview with Andy Cohen on his SiriusXM show Radio Andy, Tyson confirmed that Diddy asked the retired boxer to convey a letter to President Donald Trump. The retired heavyweight champion revealed that he spoke with Combs once on the phone, and Diddy wanted him to deliver a letter to the president.
Tyson stated, "I did what he told me to do, yes." This isn't the first time Diddy has reached out to the president; earlier this year, Trump mentioned that Combs asked for a pardon via a handwritten letter. However, Trump admitted it might be "difficult" to pardon him due to Diddy's criticism of him during his 2016 presidential campaign.
Tyson is currently serving a 50-month sentence on prostitution-related charges, with his release date set for March 8, 2028, pending any changes.
