Twelve years since the infamous "bite fight," heavyweights Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield appeared live on the Oprah Winfrey show and shook hands as friends. Holyfield told the live audience that he has forgiven Tyson for biting him during their rematch.

Holyfield is, was, and always has been a dirty fighter. In nearly all his fights he comes in with his head down in attempts to head but the other fighter. It happened in the Tyson fight also and the referee was letting Holyfield get away with it.....and that pissed Tyson off....hence the two bites. I can still see Holyfield jumping up and down....like a little b*tch. Mills Lane should have disqualified his @ss for the head buts.

Doesn't really make biting an ear of ok but yeah Holyfield was a bit of a dirty ****

Wow, its really hard to imagine.......... The sport of Sweet SCience use to attract intelligent fans but reading some of the remarks explains alot of why the sport is in a crisis other then the top guys avoiding each other.

Still, I'm glad they were able to be civil and "fogive and forget." Sure, Holyfield was a dirty fighter, but Tyson had a lot of problems, too.

He just knows that Holyfield can REALLY kick his ass nowadays. Better play nice.
