    With out his third glove, Holyfield wouldn't have been half as successful..

    Why did Tyson bite his ear? Some unrelated frustration? Tyson addressed it in the ring.

    True.

    But again, a butt versus a faded Mike is still a butt...

    If there is a pulled pork sandwich in the middle of the woods and there is nobody around to eat it, is it still pig?

    If Holyfield isn't anything without his headbutts.. he beats Tyson every time. You're the one laying down a croc of ****, not me.

    Holyfield was smart enough to position himself to let an opponent clash with his thick skull and make it look like an accident. He knew what he was doing. His head butts weren't usually done with him initiating them aggressively in the traditional fashion, but that's what made them so effective. It was plausible deniability. The refs rarely said anything because it wasn't a flagrant malicious foul like a low blow or rabbit punch.
