Mike Tyson versus Evander Holifield II

The latest episode of his YouTube show Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson had actress and comedian Leslie Jones as one of the guests. She revealed the time when the most dangerous boxer ever, scared the wits out of a stand-up comedian purportedly Wild Willy Parsons, during a show.

The infamous ‘Bite Fight’ had Mike Tyson facing fellow heavyweight Evander Holyfield. Labeled ‘The Sound and the Fury’, the second installment of the Iron Mike versus The Real Deal took place on June 28th, 1997. But the match took an ugly turn by the 3rd round when Tyson bit Holyfield’s right ear. Referee had to stop the match with Tyson disqualified.

Leslie Jones began, “… I promised this comic never gets time. I don’t know why Talent decided to put Wild Will up on the stage because he he’s not really a good comic and he crazy”.  

Continuing, she described how everyone felt and expected Wild Will to come up with something wacky. And voila! he looked straight at Mike and blurted, “… you bit that ear what it tastes like?”

Seems, by the time everyone came to their senses, someone from Tyson’s team grabbed and shook him up badly. Uncontrollable now, Jones mentioned, ” …yeah when I’am saying, they shook the s**t out of him.”

The banter continued.

Reminiscing often forces a reflection on how things change, how people change…
