Mike Tyson has been released from Arizona’s infamous Tent City Jail, after serving his 24-hour sentence overnight.

The 41-year-old former heavyweight champion was handed the one-day sentence on Monday after pleading guilty to one felony count of cocaine possession and one misdemeanour count of driving under influence.

According to a Fox News report, the shamed boxer spent his time reading the Mark Jacobson book, American Gangster, which inspired the big screen adaptation starring Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe.

Mike Tyson will also serve three years probation and perform 360 hours of community service.
