    What do you think would of happened if Tyson didnt bite Holyfield?

    If the fight went on and Tyson didnt bite Holyfield, what do you think the result would have been? i was just watching the fight and in the third round Tyson was beginning to come forward and land shots before he bit him..would Holyfield be able to take more of those and come back to knock tyson out? or would tyson eventually break holyfield down and get his revenge?

    Holyfield stops him or wins a decision.

    It wasn't just Holyfield's headbutts that made Tyson go crazy and chomp on his ear. It was also the fact that Holyfield was winning and absorbing Mike's shots well.

      I think Tyson would have quit or would have fouled intentionally later. His mind was clearly distracted by all the butting and I don't see him just "shaking it off"

        But what if. A potential UD for Tyson. He was in much better shape than last time, and he was just starting to realise what he was supposed to do. Combinations, go to the body as well. A Boxing genius like him would have exploited that as long as he could. Too bad we'll never know.

          Iron Mike was getting fed up with Evander coming up with his head. Keep watching as you can clearly see Tyson pleading with the ref to do something. I ain't saying it was cool to do so....but Evander asked for it! Mike just got pissed off from too many head butts.
