Iron Mike Tyson, one time boxing champion of the world, will be spending the day in jail sporting pink underwear and a black-and-white striped jumpsuit.
The former heavyweight will serve his 24-hours behind bars in the secluded section of what is called Tent City, far from the prying eyes of the 1,500 other inmates at the prison in Arizona.
Tyson, 41, pled guilty in September to one count of felony cocaine possession and a misdemeanor count of driving under the influence. He was arrested in 2006 leaving a club in Scottsdale.
Officers stopped Tyson when they spotted him driving erratically. Police said they saw Tyson brush a white powder off his dashboard, and they found baggies of cocaine in Tyson's pockets and in his car.
Along with his brief prison stay, Tyson must serve three years of probation, and perform 360 hours of community service. The ear-biting fighter must also undergo drug testing.
