43+ Mike Tyson And Evander Holyfield Bite PNG. Mike tyson ii, billed as the sound and the fury and afterwards infamously referred to as the bite fight or the bite of '97 was a professional boxing match contested on june. Evander holyfield hey mike tyson, i want next!!!
In 1997, in perhaps the most heavily hyped rematch of all time, tyson lost his composure and bit off part of holyfield's ear. After holyfield won the first fight between the two in november 1996, tyson was disqualified after biting both of holyfield's ears in their june 1997 rematch. Back in 1996 before their first fight, mike tyson was on a streak of eight straight wins and had only one career loss.
The first happened in november of 1996.
Evander knows why it happened. The attack led to his disqualification from the match and suspension from boxing. Mike tyson could not beat him, so he bit him. The bout would make sports history.
