After Cheering Together for Serena Williams, Martina Navratilova Takes a Hilarious Dig at Mike Tyson’s ‘Holy Ears’ Inspired C*nn*bis Product

Martina Navratilova and Mike Tyson might not have shared a lot of conversations in the past. But their seats being next to each other at the 2022 US Open surely hit the headlines. Recently, Navratilova made a comment about Tyson. It was an indirect and sarcastic comment on his collaboration with Evander Holyfield to launch a new product.

The product is based on the infamous ‘ear-biting’ incident in the 1997 heavyweight title fight between the two where Tyson bit Holyfield’s ear.

Martina Navratilova sarcastically mocks the Mike Tyson-Evander Holyfield collaboration

The duo that collaborated for the launch of ‘Ear-ie’ cannabis is an unexpected one. Mike Tyson bit Evander Holyfield’s ear in the Heavyweight Title match in 1997. Interestingly, on the same lines, this year Tyson launched ‘Mike Bites’ that are shaped like ears that have had a bite out of them.

Consequently, Navratilova found the perfect opportunity to mock the boxing legend. She tweeted, “I would have thought Mike would be endorsing mushrooms first?”

Navratilova and Chris Evert faced off against each other a whopping 80 times during their careers. Despite dominating the WTA Tour during their time and challenging each other for the biggest titles on offer, both retired stars have shared a strong bond of friendship over the years. However, unlike Tyson and Holyfield, they haven’t yet collaborated on a business venture.
