Boxer Hollyfield talks about his biggest regret: the second game did not put Tyson KO

A few days ago, the 58-year-old former world heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield, when he was a guest on the second season of the boxing radio program "On The Ropes", responded to a series of topics that boxing fans care about, which naturally involved his confrontation with Mike Tyson. Hollyfield originally planned to meet Tyson in 1991, but unfortunately failed to take shape, and then postponed until 1996 before the two sides came together, and finally Hollyfield beat Tyson to win a battle between the two.

The host asked Hollyfield, that is, many boxing fans want to know what would happen if the two sides met in 1991? How will the battle be different? Hollyfield said: "I don't know, but I'm grateful to be able to play as well as I did in 1996. In 1991, I was a good boxer, unbeaten, never knocked down, I don't think there was any difference in terms of energy, I might have played more aggressively if I was playing, but I was still lucky enough to fight Tyson in 1996 and I finished the game. ”

Subsequently, the host asked Hollyfield: "After the victory, Tyson made a lot of excuses, so you implemented the second world war, and the second world war had an unexpected result (biting the ear), how do you think about this problem?" ”

Hollyfield said: "After the battle, a lot of people were saying that Tyson thought Hollyfield was sick and would be ready if he knew the other side was healthy, so we decided to have another fight, so people said that Tyson would be in better shape and he would be ready." ”

Hollyfield continued: "After the game started, I gained the advantage in the first two rounds and injured Tyson's eye socket, but in the third leg, Tyson wanted to withdraw from the game, so he bit my ear, the fight was suspended, the scene was chaotic, the boxing fans felt frustrated and disappointed, and as a result Tyson lost his cool again, he bit me a second time, referee Mills Lane terminated the game, one of my most regrettable things is that I did not KO Tyson in the second game, if the fight continues, I can do it, It's just that he was disqualified from the competition. ”

For Hollyfield, perhaps this is really a pity, if you can clearly beat Tyson again in the second game, then there may not be a topic that is still being debated today, so if Tyson did not bite Hollyfield's ear and the game continued, could Hollyfield really KO Tyson? It's hard to say, but Hollyfield can do it because Tyson injured his eye socket in the first round and it's hard to imagine what it would be like to play. Of course, as long as Hollyfield still uses edge tactics such as cuddling and head bumping, Tyson is really not easy to defeat the opponent, after all, hugging and head bumping are regarded as Hollyfield's third fist, and two fists cannot defeat three fists.

Now, Tyson is ready to continue to compete in this way after completing the confrontation with Roy Jones Jr., although the new opponent has not yet been determined, but as the "old enemy" Hollyfield, is indeed Tyson's popular choice, through Tyson and Jones competition, Tyson's state is sharper than imagined, considering that Hollyfield has run sixty years old, if the two sides really fight three times, it is not ruled out that Tyson can avenge the opponent, thus repaying the revenge of the two defeats in 1996-1997.
