Comments Thread For: Holyfield Reflects, Says Tyson Bit Him Out of Fear, Wanted Out

i agreed with holyfield. mike was looking for a way out. even before the incident happen, tyson was already trying to get out of it. big fan of mike, but he has a weak mind that can be broken down easily if its not going his way.

Holyfield was roided to the gills and a very dirty fighter.

Very good, but both facts stand.

I've always thought this was obvious. Tyson said he was pissed because of Evander's head butts (which he thought were intentional), but I think he simply realized a few rounds in that this fight wasn't going to end up any different than the first one did, and he snapped out of frustration because he felt he simply couldn't beat Holyfield. The head butts merely aggravated Mike's already short and explosive temper.

The most coward move I ever seen in sport history. Instead of getting knocked out and taking it like a man he bites twice, and Mills Lane clearly says do that again and youre out. He did it again, he wanted out. Hollyfield was so much better that match would Not continued much longer. At the latest in Round 7 Holyfield would have knocked Tyson out.
