Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield back together again! Where were you during the infamous "bite"? Make sure to leave a comment below and subscribe for more videos!
Larry King these interviews are as compelling now as they were back in the 80's and throughout his career. Larry and tyson. Kind of like our cossel and Ali.
I ordered the fight. I was living at my mom's place. I saw the punch coming that hurt Mike in the first round. I moved closer to the tv and said "Oh shit!" then boom!!
Frodo H Yeah for sure Holyfield was head butting mike and was known for it..... Mike told Mills Lane 3 different times and he did nothing.... Lol its still not ok but in the heat of the moment, I understand. Deep down Mike is a great dude..... I still love him. These two are a class act.
Everyone always talks about mike Tyson but ppl don’t realize how humble and amazing Holyfield is. He commuted to excellence even in the worst times and he kept his mind in check. That’s a real champ right there
He head butted mike tyson in there second fight he's still a good champion but he cheated but all people can see is that tyson bit his ear out of frustration they were both wrong but all the blame shouldn't be on tyson.
I kinda feel that part was scripted,, talk shows had been settling up scripts for a long time to create celebrity images and make them more likeable.. But it's just a random thought in this case actually.. Could be wrong
@@parvezbiswas4357 you cant script Mike, he says what he wants when he wants he doesnt give a fuck lol look how many interviews where hes told the reporters to fuck off, hahaha guess he went off script
These guys are doing truly fantastic spiritual work around the world with the poor, sick and homeless..... how come we don't hear about this on the news. God bless them!
One thing I like the most about Iron Mike is that he doesn’t act different in front of cameras, he always acts normal. The champ always keeps it real 💯
Oh yes he does, moreso than most people. Watch his interview with that black radio host. He literally says savagely and rants about how his "nice guy mask" is just what people want to see
@@Tenchi707yes when he want to jail and Kevin Rooney not there and not discipline enough and people stole his moneys and holyfield get beat by Lewis and Riddick Bowe
well, we are just animals, mammals. The word humans is made by humans and no to all the religious people, we are not different, we evolved from the apes and we are just the smartest mammals around with the ability to learn complex stuff while more primitive mammals have only their instincts.
smoothcollected: I CHALLENGE you to google ( or even search on youtube ) the following: "REAL scientists using modern technology prove that evolution is SCIENTIFICALLY IMPOSSIBLE"......and be prepared to see, read, and hear countless results from your search including interviews, articles, PEER REVIEWED PAPERS, videos, documentaries, even books.......all from a rapidly & ever growing number of credentialed scientists from all fields. From astronomers proving the universe is YOUNG all the way down to molecular biologists who have already proven that DNA is THE INTELLIGENT BLUEPRINT ( from intelligent design ) that ENSURES all species shall remain THE SAME SPECIES forever......or until extinction or cataclysmic event occurs. Don't even try to argue with me, like all of you brainwashed atheist evolutionists do......JUST DO IT. Go see for yourself. Most of you REFUSE to even look at the rapidly growing mountain of real evidence.......so no matter what kind of response you give here, I assure you, I will NOT waste 1 minute reading it. Things such as asking ME to "give you the links" or "prove it myself".......when you have 2 hands full of fingers to hit that keyboard just as easily as those of us who HAVE discovered the TRUTH on our own. I'm NOT going to do YOUR research FOR YOU. The evil, corrupt mainstream scientific community is back-peddling & offering UN-scientific "explanations" that are growing more ridiculous by the day. They are painted into a corner surround by REALITY & TRUTH. The "gig" is up. Evolution AND "the geologic column" ARE DEAD. Now it's up to every person to catch up by learning & re-educating themselves.
You guys clearly know nothing about boxing. Tyson was a 5'11" heavyweight who got outboxed by anybody who could take his power and his chin was average at best. Wilder hits just as hard as Tyson but he's 6'7". Fury is a bigger, stronger version of Muhammad Ali, maybe a little slower, but his size more than makes up for that. Joshua has skills, size, AND power. Very similar to Lennox Lewis who destroyed and dominated Tyson. And remember this, Muhammad Ali only had a 56% knockout rate. That is below average for a heavyweight. His power was average but nothing special. Facts are facts. Luis Ortiz was a very skilled, big, strong southpaw and Wilder knocked his ass out.
How in the world can you love mike Tyson? He's a bully, an he threw his grandmother down the stairs, an doing drugs an bite hollyfield 👂 ear twice. He's a animal. It would been a huge fight if he did that to me.
Mike Tyson is lying, he used to say I will eat your children eat your heart out, he did mean to eat bite hollyfield 👂 ear twice, he knew 💯 he was losing the fight that's why he did it.
I love Mikes honesty. I could listen to him all day. Every fighter around today owes Mike Tyson a huge debt of gratitude. He put boxing back into the big time after Ali retired. THE most exciting fighter in the last 35 years.
Fuh Q Tyson has had years of dealing with addiction to drugs and alcohol and he admitted he was an addict and needed help. He dealt with death of his 4 year daughter in 2009 and has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. By 2013 he has worked to improve his behavior and health by getting sober and converted to being Muslim.
Lee White There are people who grow older, but don’t grow mentally. He was respectful and polite back in the day, and still is now. What changed? He looks at things differently, he reacts to things differently, etc. That takes an grown man mentally. Some men will live and die childish, stubborn, and ungroomed.
Tyson went from being one of the most feared people in the world, to one of the most LOVABLE people in the world. I love it when people redeem themselves like this. That's life coming full circle for Mike lol lol! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👌🏾👌🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Love how when Larry asked why the heavyweight division is so poor, Tyson replied its not, its just European fighters instead of American ones dominating. He seems to have an honesty chip implanted in his neck.
Mike’s honesty, his willingness to open up & discuss his faults, his insecurities, is so disarming. He overcame enormous difficulties to become an icon of sports, yet to this day, can show such humility & graciousness. We can all learn from him. I love both of these Titans.
@@KC-bg1th As Ricky Hatton said, 'it's not a tickling contest'. I despise cheating and dirty tactics but this is a sport where one defeat can see your whole life come crashing down. Tyson and Holyfield were both 'dirty' but they were also two of the greatest heavyweights of all time.
Here come the Tyson fan excuses while overlooking the fact that Tyson was one of the dirtiest HW fighters of his era.The cut he received in the first fight was dilerate headbutt by him that he came up short in because it buckled his knees and opened a cut. Go look it up. He's bit(more than once),headbutted,thrown elbows,tried to break arms,hit after the bell,hit downed fighters,hit a ref,you name it,he's probably done it yet you fail to mention that. Holyfield kicked his ass plain and simple and Tyson needed a away out of the 2nd fight he was losing so he bit Holyfield. When it didn't work the first time,he did it again to make sure he was DQ'd. Teddy Atlas predicted Tyson would do that BEFORE the fight and he was right.That being said,name one great fighter Tyson beat who wasn't way past their prime.Exactly,you can't because it never happened.
Tyson was a great fighter but he was just too small to compete with elite 'super' heavyweights like Lewis and Holyfield. He really should have been a cruiserweight but back then cruiserweight was 190 so basically he ended up being a small heavyweight. But if he fought today he definitely could have cut down from 215 or 220 to 200. Nowadays you have to be a MINIMUM of 6'3" to be a world champ at heavyweight. I mean look at pretty much all the top guys from the early 2000s onward. Holyfield. Lewis. Vitali. Wladimir. Wilder. Fury. Joshua. I mean there are some exceptions (like Tua and Byrd) but as a general rule you gotta be a 'super' heavyweight now. And I don't mean a short fatass either.
To small to compete with Holyfield? He was bigger than Holyfield, who started his career as a cruiserweight. There wasn't really a lot of good big men out there back then, Lewis was a rare exception and in his prime he would box the shit out of today's great HW's. Wilder a SHW? 215-220 lbs is a SHW? Joshua is the only real SHW of this era, genetic freak. And Fury who is just a really big boned dude.
Although Mike has commited some atrocious acts in the past, I can't help but admire how much he has changed for the better. I really admire his whole "here i am, as i am take it or leave it" attitude and his self awareness and willingness to change from the person he once was.
@Sizzle Wrap of course not and to be honest i haven't yet but i will google to see about that..my memory tells me the case got dismissed but i guess im wrong?
You guys should look more into his conviction, the jury was definitely biased and the judge refused few witnesses that were going to defend Mike, also the 911 call that lady who framed Mike made was utterly weird for an allegedly raped woman to make.
and the first time a journalist trolls him he is back the same old nasty piece of work again he is the same man he always was just without the drugs.hearing a guy boast about bouncing his missus off the wall with his punches thats like an average guy doing it with a baseball bat
I wouldnt get up out of bed to meet 99 percent of "stars" today if they were knocking at my front door. But Iron Mike. Here is one of the few living legends left in this world. Would be in awe if I met him.
Mike is an enigma.....intelligent guy with a good heart. Still scary though as there are a few remnants of what once was.....the beast within is merely asleep but make no mistake it’s there. I truly believe this man can still to this day take the heavyweight championship. As for Evander.....a true warrior and a gentleman.....love both of them.
All the love for Tyson - how about some love for Larry King? An old school, direct-but-respectful interviewer who keeps it professional and asks very good questions.
Mike should become a mentor. I have seen so much footage of him lately that it changed my mind from thinking “Mad Mike” to “Mike Mentor”. He did his fair crazy bits, but he is back, more humble then ever and appreciating life more then ever. Well done Mike, well done Sir!
Holyfield, so glad that you forgave your young brother, Tyson. You taught your brother about God's power and his forgiveness. Tyson as the child like spirit that GOD talks about; he has a good heart, just been though a lot in his short life span. I am so proud of both men.
I feel the same way. It was GREAT and VERY SPECIAL seeing them together having some laughs and fun. How can anyone not love these two guys. Two warriors finding some peace. God Bless them both. They've both been through a lot.🥊🌩️🥊
Mike Tyson is one the realest person i seen on TV. I see why Tupac loved him so much because they were so similar. Had me rolling when he said Klansman.
The older Mike Tyson gets, the more I like him (Maybe because I'm getting older, too).....I've been following him since even before he became champ.....always loved watching him fight.....and they never got boring.... He was so strong, and fast for a heavyweight.....and I've heard detractors say he would swing wildly....but....watch his old fights....some of his punches may have seemed that way....but they were pretty darned accurate.....He really brought excitement to the sport during that era.....something that would have been lacking without him. And I think he gives fantastic interviews now.....his sense of humor is actually kind of refreshing....and his "no b.s." answers to questions.....I mean, the guy really tells it like it is.
yeah so what? Contrary to what kids think you don't suddenly shrink to nothing as you age unless you stop everything. Keep working out and you will stay jacked.
"We're animals pretending to be human" Tyson is so real ...Mike is really so normal and so great ..his vibe is so humble for probably the greatest boxer ever..at least top 5
A lot of people don't know but Mike Tyson is a Boxing Historian. He knows more about boxing than all of the guys on ESPN put together. I would like to see a network put Tyson in there commentating on the fights. He would do such a great job. Better than Max Kellerman could ever dream of doing. Not only is he knowledgeable he's been to the top and bottom of the fight game.
Will Grello Basically I agree Tyson is a learned boxing historian, but I think Kellerman is no less informed on the history of the sport& it's players. Tyson has the advantage of a career in the ring, actual experience,being in the trenches....things and aspects foreign to poor deskbound bookworm Max. Make no mistake though, I like Max, his knowledge,&his enthusiasm too...but I don't recall reading or hearing Max saying he ever actually wore a glove or had a match,....I see this as a limitation I'd like to hear Max&Mike discuss boxing history, the best of both worlds I think.
When asked why he bit Holyfield's ear "I said sorry." But why? "Because I had too, I wanted too, I bit his ear, I didn't mean to bite his ear, bit his ear, didn't mean to bite his ear"
MIke is the proof that you can come back stronger from anything, he went through criminal career , alcohol and drug addictions, jail time, mental problems , deaths of the ones closest to him and now he looks better then ever , smoking weed and enjoying life.
Who knew that iron was such a transparent alloy? God bless Mike Tyson. He gave so much of his life and body to entertain people. I am truly fascinated by this man. It's good to see these 2 warriors hashing out the past. We shall never see their like again . . .
tyson is never a bad guy anyway,he had difficult childhood then later been with wrong crowd. all he needed was just someone to lead him a right direction. i am happy for him now he finally found it and living a good life
I commend Tyson for keeping it classy because Larry Larry was trying to get a reaction out of him asking same question over and over instead of really asking questions that would give true insight to that classic fight like why wasn't there a trilogy
Mike came a long way through ups and downs and seems to be in a good spot in life. I'm very happy to see comebacks but most of all his path of peace and wanting to make amends with people he had differences with in the past.

Larry King At my brothers house… He was a big Holyfield fan I was a Tyson fan. It’s still remains as the craziest moment in sports.
In my dads nutz
I ordered the fight. I was living at my mom's place. I saw the punch coming that hurt Mike in the first round. I moved closer to the tv and said "Oh shit!" then boom!!
Mike Tyson is a quantum mystery. I love his semi normal behavior with the hints of total insanity and guaranteed honesty.
You just left one of the best comments I have ever read.
Maniac Psycho my pleasure maniac
Exactly.
Very well said.
Yeah don't fuck with that guy
Larry King has looked the same for 156 years.
Maybe even longer
I don't think I ever saw him looking different ha
And Going Strong!
Conan, is that you?
Lol! True!
The way Mike keeps on saying "I said sorry" like a kid who feels really bad about it is so funny, cute and wholesome 😂😂😂
He said "I'm sorry" like kid that don't mean it.
True he still feels sorry but i saw the match Evander keeps him hiting with his head
i had never read or heard anything use the word "cute" to describe anything tyson has done.....
Frodo H Yeah for sure Holyfield was head butting mike and was known for it..... Mike told Mills Lane 3 different times and he did nothing.... Lol its still not ok but in the heat of the moment, I understand. Deep down Mike is a great dude..... I still love him. These two are a class act.
"thorry"
“We are animals trying to be humans”
-Mike Tyson
Damn
That was deep
Riiiight.... That was so DOPE 🔥
Tysons has a such a beautiful mind. But he was just beaten and beaten and beaten that hes just numb to his own thoughts.
Or maybe we are human looking animal.
Or maybe a human looking animal.
Everyone always talks about mike Tyson but ppl don’t realize how humble and amazing Holyfield is. He commuted to excellence even in the worst times and he kept his mind in check. That’s a real champ right there

Evander is just scared of him

These guys are doing truly fantastic spiritual work around the world with the poor, sick and homeless..... how come we don't hear about this on the news. God bless them!
Yellow Man You're joking right? Evander bullied Mike when they fought
Time may not heal all...but it heals most. I think the human heart wants to forgive. Holding a grudge is a lot of negative energy
One thing I like the most about Iron Mike is that he doesn’t act different in front of cameras, he always acts normal. The champ always keeps it real 💯
"normal"
By "normal", you mean "Tyson normal".... I hope.
You must mean natural, not normal
Oh yes he does, moreso than most people. Watch his interview with that black radio host. He literally says savagely and rants about how his "nice guy mask" is just what people want to see
I think that's why 2pac was kool with hkm because he kept 100 with him.
Even Holyfield couldn’t help but smile when Tyson was like “I said sorry”😂
He just looks like a kid. Funny, n its amazing
He could never beat Evander lol

"Animals learning to be human" is some of the realest shit anyone could say. Props to Mike for being real.
When I heard that I was like yo shame on anyone who said Mike didn't have a great mind.
Jonathan Carmel we humans are different than animals, what Mike says is nonsense.

nah this was filmed in 2013, just uploaded a year ago
Larry was the only interviewer who wasn't afraid of interviewing Mike Tyson ☺️
😂 that's because Larry would had sued Mike Tyson, an had him arrested for hitting him, I think 🤔 mike Tyson knew 💯 it.😂
Tyson is amazing. He blows me away even more today than he did in his prime.
"i had a pretty decent defense"
that's a huge understatement.
his defense was legendary....and it set up his offense perfectly.
For me, Mike Tyson is the symbol of transformation!
Love how when Larry asked why the heavyweight division is so poor, Tyson replied its not, its just European fighters instead of American ones dominating. He seems to have an honesty chip implanted in his neck.
True true
I think that he was more so implying that the way they fight isn't as pleasing to Americans, compared to what they were use to.
He’s right
😆🤣😂
Some of the European heavyweights are total beasts. He’s right though.
I love it that Tyson and Hollyfield can be in the same room and talk about it. Much respect.

I Love Mike 💞💞 like a little kid.
This is like the sweetest interview.
Mike Tyson is such an inspirational person. His attitude and his approach to the difficulties he has faced in life is phenominal.
"I said sorry"! 😂 He really feels bad about that
😂😂😂
I thed thorry.
I think its because they are friends.
I'm sorry to correct you but Mike didn't say "I said sorry", he said "I thed thorry"....
He really fills bad
"whatever life I have left to live, I want to be of service" Well said Mike!!!! Great words!!!
Holyfield is the most humble and respectful champion, ever! The Real Deal, for sure! Love Mike for keeping it so real. Brooklyn!👊
Holyfield was playing dirty asf that fight. Kept head butting Mike. That’s why Mike bit him lmao.
So did tyson get paid in this fight or zero due to disqualification
John Lee he got paid more than Holyfield due to interviews and magazines and books written about it
I like mike he so honest. He's bounced back from his bad boy days and his honesty about finding life hard is good.
Beautiful, Evander. "Keep your mind on the Lord" 3 times. Amazing.
Although Mike has commited some atrocious acts in the past, I can't help but admire how much he has changed for the better. I really admire his whole "here i am, as i am take it or leave it" attitude and his self awareness and willingness to change from the person he once was.

and the first time a journalist trolls him he is back the same old nasty piece of work again he is the same man he always was just without the drugs.hearing a guy boast about bouncing his missus off the wall with his punches thats like an average guy doing it with a baseball bat
@Sizzle Wrap You are such an ignorant sheep
Larry: I won’t temp you
Tyson: thank you..
???
🤣🤣
Hes a CAGED BEAST
when he said that
Rest in peace Larry King God bless you.
He’s dead, how can God bless him? Lol he’ll bless him when he raises him from the dead man.
Mike Tyson is legendary "I could never see the punches, but I Could hear them" Pop Pop!
I wouldnt get up out of bed to meet 99 percent of "stars" today if they were knocking at my front door. But Iron Mike. Here is one of the few living legends left in this world. Would be in awe if I met him.
Mike is an enigma.....intelligent guy with a good heart. Still scary though as there are a few remnants of what once was.....the beast within is merely asleep but make no mistake it’s there. I truly believe this man can still to this day take the heavyweight championship.
As for Evander.....a true warrior and a gentleman.....love both of them.
These two guys really made boxing exciting. It has never been the same since. Great interview Larry.
"How great a fighter were you?"
"I dont know I was okay"
funny guy
Bill Lizard Cus D’Amato.
@@Motorlizard cusamano? Tf is that
Cus D’Amato
He describing his pain and mike whispering “sorry“ , SCREAMINGGGGGG😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hearing them describe each other as fighters was awesome.🙏
Mike is a very intelligent person. He has come so far. After what he grew up like before cus he's made such a positive change in life.
Experienced in the road of hard knocks yes, intelligent, don't see it on any interviews.
Whenever I see Larry King I always think "wow, how is he still alive?"
Paul Hardy me too😅😂😂
He's an alien
😞
This isn't funny anymore
well, this certainly isn't funny like it was once
Larry is the King of interviewers!
There you're Willie. I'm a fan of your show.. 👍🏿🇳🇬🇳🇬
Him and letterman
Rip Larry
Til they gave him the ole China Virus Vax... RIP Larry and Hank Aaron
Meh
All the love for Tyson - how about some love for Larry King? An old school, direct-but-respectful interviewer who keeps it professional and asks very good questions.
Mike should become a mentor. I have seen so much footage of him lately that it changed my mind from thinking “Mad Mike” to “Mike Mentor”. He did his fair crazy bits, but he is back, more humble then ever and appreciating life more then ever. Well done Mike, well done Sir!
Tyson, don't let peek-a-boo style die. you are the master of this craft created by Cus. Let your and his legacy live forever.
I would pay anything to have Tyson train me.
Cus D'amato best teacher of boxing Mike his greatest disciple
@@DA-Red-Panda1
No wouldn't, you'll be gone in a weird circumstances 🤤😜😴😨🤯😱😵
well he let it die in 1988
Mike Tyson is the realest most fierce heavyweight ever...thank you legend
Holyfield, so glad that you forgave your young brother, Tyson. You taught your brother about God's power and his forgiveness. Tyson as the child like spirit that GOD talks about; he has a good heart, just been though a lot in his short life span. I am so proud of both men.
I feel the same way. It was GREAT and VERY SPECIAL seeing them together having some laughs and fun. How can anyone not love these two guys. Two warriors finding some peace. God Bless them both. They've both been through a lot.🥊🌩️🥊
Holyfield cheated by headbutting him repeatedly so he is not innocent at all. He also owes Mike an apology.
@@JustinDAMusic but still biting somebody its kinda weak tyson should apologize
@@JustinDAMusic but still biting somebody its kinda weak tyson should apologize
Holyfield is kind a great man and Peaceful. different with the bite man. hahaha. he is thirsty of blood, that way he bite. Love Holifield
"i believe in God, I wonder do God believe in me!" Iron Mike different
Tears in my eyes. Forgiveness is such a beautiful gift
Mike has always been endlessly fascinating, for better or worse. A true one-off.
Good to see Evander and Mike laughing. Two of the best 👍
Mike Tyson is one the realest person i seen on TV. I see why Tupac loved him so much because they were so similar. Had me rolling when he said Klansman.
Brutally honest man Tyson, a seeming changed man, best of luck to you mike!
After 100 years or more. Our kids and grandchildren will only remember Mike Tyson
The best boxer in history
nah douglas is better
@@griefer5846who?
The older Mike Tyson gets, the more I like him (Maybe because I'm getting older, too).....I've been following him since even before he became champ.....always loved watching him fight.....and they never got boring.... He was so strong, and fast for a heavyweight.....and I've heard detractors say he would swing wildly....but....watch his old fights....some of his punches may have seemed that way....but they were pretty darned accurate.....He really brought excitement to the sport during that era.....something that would have been lacking without him. And I think he gives fantastic interviews now.....his sense of humor is actually kind of refreshing....and his "no b.s." answers to questions.....I mean, the guy really tells it like it is.
i agree the pockets of arrogance all gone and happy with himself.
Mike speaks from his heart very honest man ,that’s why he went broke helping people and letting people take advantage of him
True, always true to himself
Mike Tyson still looks JACKED!!
+Yehudah Ohayon He said in a interview a few years back that he occasionally still trains and also mentors/trains young fighters.
He's also been a vegan for almost 10 years. I'm considering trying it out.
yeah so what? Contrary to what kids think you don't suddenly shrink to nothing as you age unless you stop everything. Keep working out and you will stay jacked.
Yehudah Ohayon THIS WAS FILMED IN 2013. Mike is looking fat nowadays.
@@elshanks1578 yh he actually said on joe rogan's podcast that he stopped trainin cos it reminds him of his younger self
this makes me happy to see them together,Mike always remember you are always a champion,you do not to be in a ring,never give up on yourself.
RIP Larry King
*imagine these two guys having a drink in a bar, i'd feel more safe in that bar than a bar with 20 securities.*
What kind of securities? Stocks or bonds?
@@animeonperseest lmfao
Evander doesnt drink and apparantly neither does Mike, .....anymore but when he did, watch out
Boss - I'm not sure safe is what you would feel.... a few drinks might bring out the BEAST in Mike!
Safer to have two pistols on you.
“I can never feel them, I can always hear them” pop pop pop lol - Mike Tyson
"We're animals pretending to be human" Tyson is so real ...Mike is really so normal and so great ..his vibe is so humble for probably the greatest boxer ever..at least top 5
When Mike Tyson said ” I thed thorry ”. I really felt that.
“It’s better then being nowhere”
The Champ
Iron Mike Tyson
A lot of people don't know but Mike Tyson is a Boxing Historian. He knows more about boxing than all of the guys on ESPN put together. I would like to see a network put Tyson in there commentating on the fights. He would do such a great job. Better than Max Kellerman could ever dream of doing. Not only is he knowledgeable he's been to the top and bottom of the fight game.
Will Grello Basically I agree Tyson is a learned boxing historian, but I think Kellerman is no less informed on the history of the sport& it's players. Tyson has the advantage of a career in the ring, actual experience,being in the trenches....things and aspects foreign to poor deskbound bookworm Max. Make no mistake though, I like Max, his knowledge,&his enthusiasm too...but I don't recall reading or hearing Max saying he ever actually wore a glove or had a match,....I see this as a limitation I'd like to hear Max&Mike discuss boxing history, the best of both worlds I think.
8:32
Larry King: Mike, why did you bite him?
Mike Tyson: I said sorry!
I love Mike Tyson!!!
"We are animals learning to be human beings" what a profound statement.
it's always so cool to see tyson and holyfield together as friends, after their brutal fights years ago
This has to be one of the funniest most honest interview EVER.
Larry: “Were you shocked?”
Evan: “Well of course I was shocked, you saw how high I jumped!”
Mike: “He did jump pretty high.”
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mike... you were one of the very best, in your prime I’d never bet against you. 👊🏼
I would,if he had dared to face Holy then.
Me too in my eyes he is the best ever
When asked why he bit Holyfield's ear "I said sorry."
But why? "Because I had too, I wanted too, I bit his ear, I didn't mean to bite his ear, bit his ear, didn't mean to bite his ear"
The thing I admire most about you Ike Tyson is your complete honesty and the way you keep it real. And I admired you greatly as a fighter. Pete UK
MIke is the proof that you can come back stronger from anything, he went through criminal career , alcohol and drug addictions, jail time, mental problems , deaths of the ones closest to him and now he looks better then ever , smoking weed and enjoying life.
"Well first I have no God damn money larry" have to respect honesty
Who knew that iron was such a transparent alloy? God bless Mike Tyson. He gave so much of his life and body to entertain people.
I am truly fascinated by this man.
It's good to see these 2 warriors hashing out the past.
We shall never see their like again . . .
Jay Black Iron is not an alloy.
tyson is never a bad guy anyway,he had difficult childhood then later been with wrong crowd.
all he needed was just someone to lead him a right direction.
i am happy for him now he finally found it and living a good life
If you continue to water a seed, give it love, and never give up on it...eventually it will show you it’s beauty.
Mike Tyson: I am sorry, I said sorry😂😂 for the bite
“ I said I’m sorry” and just stopped talking like that’s it lmfao!! I died
Lots of respect for these two men,,, sitting next to each other almost like friends,,,, impressive humans
He said he was ok as a boxer. A GOAT been humble from the heart
"we're animals learning to be Human"
Words of wisdom...
Larry King was special. Miss him. RIP Larry King 🙏🏻
Larry King does great interviews. He always has. Then to have Tyson & Holyfield on the same exact show was yet another brilliant interview.
I LOVE THE SHOW THAT MIKE AND LARRY PUT TOGETHER! it was hilarious watching them 😂😂😂🤣🤣
Legends with tragedies in their lives. (especially Mike)
I commend Tyson for keeping it classy because Larry Larry was trying to get a reaction out of him asking same question over and over instead of really asking questions that would give true insight to that classic fight like why wasn't there a trilogy
trilogy for what? evander win 2.
Mike came a long way through ups and downs and seems to be in a good spot in life. I'm very happy to see comebacks but most of all his path of peace and wanting to make amends with people he had differences with in the past.
