I think that it wasn't right for Mike to bite off Evanders ear but I personally like Tyson as my favorite boxer and I say it's stupid for Holifield to be head butting people like if this is wrestling. Holyfield deserved it and i'm with Tyson.

I think Mike Tyson is like a grown kid. When i say that; that means that he needs to buy new friends , coaches or whoever is holding him back from his success. He is a fighter trying to survive in a world that is trying to exclude him slowly but surely. Rumble rumble rumble

Right before Mike Tyson bit off Evander Holyfield's ear, I thought Tyson was starting to turn the fight in his favor. He had connected with a good left jab and a solid right hook. for wome bizzare reason after that he just lost it and snapped!! I think a lot of Tyson's problems started after he lost the title to James "Buster" Douglas. He enjoyrd being on top of the world for so long, and when it ended, he had trouble dealing with defeat. In order for Tyson to get back on top, he has to realize that not everything is going to go his way all of the time and he can't go beating up people and biting their ears off. He just has to find a good way of dealing with his problems through counseling, therapy or whatever. I think once he can get past his troubles, he should have no problem regaining the heavyweight title from whomever the champ may be because when Tyson has his composure and thinking straight, there really isn't a boxer who can go toe to toe with him for 10 rounds in my opinion.

mike tyson is one of the best fighters out there as a matter of fact he is the best fighter. sence when is holyfield such a saint? he wins his fans over by saying i love god bla bla bla. and some people say tyson was scared of loseing thats why he bit his ear and took the easy way out. well what the hell was that shit holyfield pulled on the lewis fight picking lewis up in the 1st round like it was some kind of damn wrestleing match and to scared to fight lewis. and who cares about what kind of trouble tyson got in to in the past or present its none of your damn bussiness what he does its his life not yours. so stop being such a damn busy body and mind your own fuckin business,but for those who want to get their panty hoes in a tie think about this, on ce he got his licence and a victory over botha he gets arested again for hitting some old fart who hit his car. they made up and everything was cool, but no they had to be dicks and lock him up again,but now hes back on the program so get over it stop bit ching theres nothing you can do about it so find a new hobby cuz you dont know what the hell your talking about you just repeat what you hear on t.v and what the media says get your own opinions and stop plagerizing shit.

I believe Mike did time deserved and I think that Mike needs to lose the people who are a bad influence on him he is truly the greatest fighter he just needs to straighten out his life and get away from all the crooks he really needs to talk to Evander about our souvern lord Jesus then maybe he'll truly find himself. from everything that has taken place, Cus has been the greatest thing thus far in his life I really believe that King was the fall of the greatest champ ever. so come on Mike let's get it together. you have even today lot's of moral support.

I would like to Mike Tyson continue to box because he is a very exciting boxer to watch but as for all the comments about being the best well Mike Tyson is not the best. During his career he has fought many fights but his competition is not as good ha s past heavyweights he has not fought the top fighters of his time. Except for Evander who he fought twice and lost twice he has fought second rate fighters. Besides Evander the best fighter he fought is Razor Rudduck who is not very good and is now was hed up. So how can you call Tyson the best fighter when he hasn't even fought the best.

mike tyson might not be the smartest guy in the world for the biting, but how many teachers do you see in the ring?? He said it all--it's a fight,do what ya gotta do. mike tyson is still the best heavyweight in the world and if he ever quits or gets su spended again- boxing will be like watching golf.

Hi guys, I am a very good fan of mike tyson, & i agree with those that say he was right in doing what he did, he did not do it because he wanted but he was PROVOKED that was why, & the middle man was too stupid in keeping his eyes away from that> tyson has g one a long way in fighting, but evender knew that if that was not done tyson would have knocked him down easilly.

WHY DOES EVERYONE ASSUME THAT HOLYFIELD IS THE CLEANEST FIGHTER AROUND? TYSON HAD TO BE PROVOKED BY A DIRTY HOLYFIELD. THAT HEAD BUTTING WAS DESIGNED, AND ANYONE WHO KNOWS FIGHTING KNOWS THAT. ANOTHER IDEA ABOUT TYSON IS THAT HE MIGHT NOT BE THE HUN GRY KID FROM THE GHETTO ANYMORE, FOUR MANSIONS COULD DO THAT TO A FIGHTER.

what Tyson did was uncalled for an di think there should be no way for him to get back into the sport. Next time he could take it a step further and further and so on. Some day it could even come to killing someone out of the ring. His trials should be about going to jail not getting back into the ring!!

All I gots to say is this. Mike Tyson is the best fighter ever and will stay that way, and if he fights Holyfield again I know its going to be a first round KO

Listen here all of you Tyson haters. Mike Tyson is the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be!! As far as you people who think he should be banned for life, I'd like to see the expressions on your faces when the Nevada Boxi ng Commission reinstates him and he comes back and unifies the titles!! Now put that in your pipe and smoke it!

Mike Tyson's number one fan!!!

Hey Dan- I read your comment about Mike Tyson.  Are we talking about the same guy?  You say he's a true champion.  This makes me think that you're saying it's okay to bite some guys ear off in the ring.  Is that right?  Around here any guy who would fight like tha t is considered a "woos." I give him credit for his statement and his apology, but that doesn't erase what he did. And what he did isn't the mark of champion in my book. Would you bite a guy's ear off if you were fighting?

WHAT MIKE TYSON DID WAS WRONG, HOWEVER HE IS STILL THE BEST FIGHTER IN THE WORLD AND I LOVE HIM. I THINK MIKE WAS RIGHT IN GIVING HIS STATEMENT AND I THINK ALL YOU PEOPLE SHOULD LEAVE THE MAN ALONE. HE IS A TRUE CHAMPION AND A TRUE CHAMPION DOES WHAT THEY HAVE TO DO TO WIN. HE DID NOT NEED TO BITE HIM BECAUSE HE COULD KICK THE (*****) OUT OF THAT UGLY (****) WHIMP ANY DAY. SO FOR ALL THE PEOPLE THAT DON'T LIKE TYSON--- HE WILL FIGHT AGAIN AND HE WILL ONCE AGAIN DOMENATE BOXING.

I think Mike Tyson has some real problems! He's been in trouble before, and seems prone to self-destructive behavior. I hope he's able to get some help so he can figure out why he acts like he does so he can change his ways. As far as his punishment for biting off a piece of Holyfield's ear, the consequences were definitely not severe enough. I don't believe he should ever box professionally again.

Mike Tyson is the biggest wimp when it comes to the 'sport' of boxing. Anyone having to resort to such childish acts should not be allowed to participate. He should be stripped of his title and not be allowed to fight, EVER!!!

Manteno, IL USA - Tuesday, July 15, 1997 at 09:00:12 (CDT)


Savagery of this kind should not be condoned. Hopefully kids will realize that this is not behavior they would want to emulate. If it was my decision, I would never let Mike Tyson fight again.

The penalty was not harsh enough. I thought that he should have been suspended for at least 3 years and had all of his winnings taken away. Good article, keep up the good work!
