if tyson did not bite evander holyfeilds ear, how would the 2nd fight have ended?

Interesting question.

I think that Tyson would have gotten wild and frustrated and Holy would have taken him down.

 

holy would stop him.

 

7 or 8 rounds?? It happen in round 3.

Either way, I think Holyfiled repeats his feat. Looking back, its relly hard to make Tyson the favor in the rematch. Yes I can see it in the first match, but after a thrashing like that, I belive Holyfiled should be favor in fight II.

 

well lets not forget holyfield's headbutts in that fight... and 2 tyson was doing great in the 3rd round...

so who knows but the thing is cuts on his eyes(result of headbutts) would not help his vision.

and ofcourse if holyfield were to headbutt or foul him or anyone it is always called an accident no matter how many times it happens....lol

 

Holyfield would have stopped him and probably earlier then the first time.

 

Evander is Mike's daddy. He won the first two rounds even easier than during their first fight, and would've gone on to beat him just the same. Tyson had a good third until the bite, but it wasn't as good as, say, the 5th round of the first fight. Yet Holyfield came back there as well.

 

Evander probably stops him later, but I think Tyson would have his moments later in th fight. Holyfield's headbutting tactics were dirty, but I'm not condoning Tyson for biting off a piece of his ear.

From what I remember, the entire crowd was all in favour of Holyfield, with Tyson portrayed as the bad guy which I think was wrong.

 

The crowd was upset with Tyson, even thowing garbage and bottles at him when he left the ring. Think he got into a scuffy with some of the fans when he left also.

 

Tyson i am sure would vote for the option that says Holyfield KOes him. Why do you think he bit him in the first place.

 

Yep.

Holy didn't need a few rounds to adjust to Tyson this time, he knew what to do from the start and was doing it. Hence the reason Tyson quit.

 

Exactly.

 

Holyfield by decision at least. He did (in the Tyson fights)what other great fighters like Ali/Jack Johnson/Ray Leonard(Duran) do & that is frustrate his opponents. Although I think Tyson was bent on being not knocked out he would have still lost a frustrating decision. But in all fairness to Tyson that eye did look bad & I would have been pissed also. It could have been a medical stoppage but not Ko . Holyfield decision.

 

he bit him because he was getting headbutted and he lost control. That's just fact. Not excusing it in any way, but Mike didn't bite holyfield to 'get out of the fight' , like a lot of people say. He went off his rockers. Why do you think there was 100 people in the ring afterwards, and Mike was taking swipes at everybody.
