FEATURING THE INFAMOUS EAR BITE

I have the original PPV broadcast of this recorded on home VHS, and it’s one of my favorite tapes. What a fight! Tyson was an absolute maniac, back then.

This is the fight that started a million proto-memes, about ear consumption.

    Just watched this bout again last night. I’ll never forget having some buddies over to watch this. When it happened, I jumped off the sofa and yelled, “He bit him! He bit him!” Everyone else in the room said, “What?”. It was just something that one could never imagine ever happening in the ring. Has to be the craziest moment in boxing history.

    Thanks for posting :)
