1. Mike Tyson

Mike Tyson is one of the most famous boxers to ever grace the ring, and he is certainly known for a lot of different things, from biting his opponents’ ears off, having a face tattoo across half of his face, a pet tiger, to anger management issues with the women in his life, but there is one more interesting fact about the champ that a few people know – he is actually Muslim.

Tyson converted to Islam in 1992 after he was incarcerated on rape charges. Tyson’s Muslim name is Malik, and he is a devoted practitioner of the religion who regularly attends Mosque services, prays and follows the Islamic beliefs.
