    Ah... very true. Could he have done it to a PRIME holyfield though, who's ear tissue no doubt would have had more bite resistance?

    He could always use his tongue on him instead.

    Prime Tyson biting prime Holyfield ? Without teeth.
    Opinions will differ, but it's certainly the kind of fantasy bite we'd all pay money to see. :good

    True, after all I think it has been proven that even I could beat Tokyo Tyson, but an Ali/Louis tag team is at best a live underdog against 86-88 Tyson.

    Could Hagler have beaten Hearns without his hard head?
