Sure Ive seen the look at me interview from right after the fight, but I'm always interested in Tyson's comments on things especially post career, he seems to be completely honest and genuine, and I was wondering if he ever reflected on what he was thinking that night?

He says Holyfield was headbutting him in the first fight which was making him feel dizzy. When he realized it was happening again in the 2nd fight he lashed out and bit him.

thanks guys

It wasn't a spur of the moment thing, he originally left his corner without his mouth guard, the ref' ordered it back in, he then bit him once, the match was haulted, continued, he bit him again, the round continued, then the D.Q was announced. It wasn't rage. It wasn't a right that second thing, could have been anger but he established he was going to do it.

Yeah it was premedetated

Watch this 2 minute video honey.

I read an interesting article about that. Saying that its the corner mens job to put the mouthguard back in and not tysons! ill try and dig it up for you, its in a tyson biography i have.

I just read that Holyfield had butted Tyson some 15 times and given some low blows...Quite abit to do in 2 rounds. John Horne said Holyfield had turned the fight into a street fight before Tyson "nipped" (haha) Holyfield's ear.

He wished he had some BBQ sauce to put on it...
