Mike Tyson moves Diddy’s hand away and shifts 'awkwardly' in ‘revealing’ resurfaced footage

People are flooding to social media to weigh in on an 'awkward' resurfaced clip of an interaction between Sean 'Diddy' Combs and Mike Tyson.

On Monday (September 16) rapper Sean Combs was arrested at Park Hyatt hotel in Manhattan, New York and later officially charged with racketeering and sex trafficking - charges of which his attorney has said he's 'not guilty'.

Since then, clips of Combs with other celebrities have resurfaced online and there's a moment between him and boxer Mike Tyson which has been circulating on Twitter.

In the wake of the allegations against the rapper, a clip of Combs hanging out with Justin Bieber when the 'Baby' star was just 15 years old re-emerged online.

Many branded the video 'super creepy' and another clip of the rapper has since reappeared on social media, showing Diddy, Tyson and fellow rapper and record producer Heavy D on The Keenan Ivory Wayans show in 1998.

Footage from the interview starts with Tyson and Combs joking around on the couch with host Wayans, the boxer even saying he may ask for help from Combs when it comes to a singer who he's trying to help get to the 'top of her game'.

However, there's one moment of the interview which viewers have picked up on.

When Combs is discussing a moment he fell over on stage he places his hand to rest near Tyson's leg and the boxer can be seen picking up his hand before giving the audience a flash of the rapper's ring and watch saying: "He truly is about the Benjamins we see."

Despite the seeming intention behind the action - to show of the rapper's wealth - one Twitter user said: "Not only moved his hand but then repositioned himself away from Diddy."

Indeed, Tyson can be seen physically moving his whole body away from Combs, his gaze still turned towards the rapper's hand - which he placed back down on the sofa.

The user resolved the 'body language' in this moment is 'very revealing'.

And it's not taken long for people to flood to the clip to weigh in.

One user wrote: "Awkward."

"He was clearly feeling an inappropriate vibe," another added.

However, others pointed out that there's a reason Tyson picked up Diddy's hand.

"Watch it again. He was grabbing his hand to show his diamond ring to the audience while saying 'It truly is about the benjamins'," one argued.

A second wrote: "Tyson is clearly referencing the diamond bracelet on Diddy's wrist as he attempts to show Keenan that "He's truly about the Benjamin"--meaning rich. It's probably the cultural disconnect that prevented you from seeing what should've been obvious."

UNILAD has contacted Mike Tyson's representatives for comment.
