Not content to busy himself with important matters of fragrance and sexism, the famously conflict-prone mogul is visiting his wrath upon more than just the world of advertising these days, as a promoter claims that Diddy's bodyguards administered a thorough beating on an innocent man at Puff's behest:
The lawsuit claimed James Waldon, 27, spoke to Combs in The Box and then one bodyguard punched him in the mouth, knocking him backward onto a table, and two others began hitting and kicking him continuously.
Waldon rolled off the table and was chased around the club by the bodyguards before escaping. The beating left Waldon with numerous injuries, including mouth and teeth problems, according to court papers.
But what did he do to deserve the kind of flogging that gives you "mouth and teeth problems"? Surely Diddy reserves this level of violence for only the most serious conflicts.
After saying hello and exchanging pleasantries, court papers say, [Waldron] invited Combs to see a performance of a hip-hop music group he was promoting.
At that point, court papers say, "Combs gestured at (a bodyguard) to forcibly remove Mr. Waldon from close proximity to Combs," and the assault began.
Oh, an invitation to a show. No wonder he was so upset.

To be fair, "come to my show" is a more obnoxious request than "listen to my demo."
When I read the words "Combs in The Box," I thought Puff had bought up a franchise of west coast burger joints and remolded them in his own image.
@GovernmentNames: you can agree to come and not go, unlike taking a CDR
