Part 1: Evander Holyfield on Starting to Box at Age 8, Became "1 Punch Holyfield"
--------
Evander Holyfield shared that he forgave Mike Tyson right away for biting his ear during a match due to his own past experience with biting his brother. Holyfield added that the act was about getting out of an untenable situation and expressed the necessity of forgiveness in life. The incident ended up serving as a lesson in forgiveness for Holyfield and became a business opportunity. He mentioned the cannabis-infused edibles they released together years later, jokingly named "Mike Bites" and fashioned in the shape of ears. Holyfield and Tyson even considered a potential third fight but there was no conclusion or agreement. Holyfield underlined that although there was discussion about it, the idea did not come to fruition due to Tyson's side apparently being against it.
