Comments Thread For: Photos: Abraham Demands Trilogy, Stieglitz on Board

Ah, the old Evander Holyfield trick. Land a massive headbutt to cut open an eye, and sail smoothly to victory. Watch round 5 in his first fight against Tyson (when Mike actually staggered him shortly before), and round 2 in their second fight (again, when Mike was starting to fire back).

It was an intentional head strike to the eye. Watch it in the middle of round two. A punch didn't do that.

It was a ****ing punch. A headbutt of that magnitude would cut your eye.

I don't even know why we are discussing this as it's as clear as day that it came from a punch. You could even hear it land and the commentators were quick to notice it. The eye was shut instantly.

Yes, Stieglitz came with his head a couple of times but they didn't inflict any damage. Abraham's guards were up and Stieglitz got rightfully warned.

That swollen left eye came from a massive straight right hand.

Wrong thread. This isn't the Mike Tyson vs. Evander Holyfield thread. Nevermind, you're only 16 years late.
