Mike Tyson shared the moment he converted to Islam.

According to the boxer, this occurred before the trial that started in November 1991, as reported by Championat.

At that time, the American athlete was accused of rape, and Tyson was sentenced to six years in prison.

I converted to Islam long before the trial. It became my true faith. I remain a practicing Muslim and always will be. I need my faith for life itself, for my existence. Without faith, you have nothing. I pray about absolutely everything — for my family, even before crossing the street, – he said.
