    Agreed, I thought Tyson showed restraint

      Not really, he was just scared to try that dirty **** to Evander because he would get spanked for it.

      There was a moment in the first fight..You know how Tyson would try to break an opponents arm when things didn't go his way? He first tried that on Evander. Evander got pissed, turned Tyson around and flicked him off of him and Mikey nearly fell through the ropes the little prick

      He also tried to headbutt Holyfield which backfired as Evander's skull is way too dense. That's a well known moment.

      So yeah, the only thing he could do was bite Evander like a 10 year old little girl.

        Agree that Tyson has a bully boy attitude, but come on, Holyfield was fouling him all night, he shouldn’t have bit his ear but Holyfield was a piss taker

          Here is an interesting piece, Holyfield ADMITS he couldn't beat Mike in his prime because his rhytm was unpredictable. Here is the clip of him admitting it:

            OK here is some twisted logic . . . technically/legally speaking Mike Tyson wasn't disqualified for biting Evander Holyfield's ear off, he was DQed for disobeying Miles Lane's instruction not to bite Evander Holyfield's ear.

            DQ for failing to follow the referee's instructions.

            It must have been very frustrating to Tyson; trying to get out of the fight by DQ, the referee made him bite twice.

              That's half true. Holyfield could not, but Evan Fields could beat Tyson every day of the week.
