    Mike was to soft to share the ring with a warrior like Holyfield at this point in his career, Holyfield turned the bully in to a Whiney *****

    I don't remember Mike kneeing people in the groin to win

    Perhaps he should have kneed Douglas in the groin I mean if it's legal for holyfield why can't Mike do it

    No he just bites ears, tries to break arms, elbows. Headbutts, please dude Tyson later in his career was as dirty as they come he just couldn't handle it when Holyfield gave him some of his own medicine which is why he got his ass kicked

    Exactly, the bully was getting beat up and he was looking for someone to come in and rescue him because he was in Deepwater and about to drown

    Lane had his hands full. Tyson would foul and bite. Holyfield used the top of his head as a weapon. This was a major event, so the best call is to warn once, then DQ.

    Holyfield badly whipped Tyson in the first match, and the fouls didn't seem to factor into the result.

    How is 'kneeing him in the head' a 'knee to the groin'? I know Mike could be a bit of a d1ckhead but that doesn't seem possible.
