ULTRA-Rare $10 domination MGM Grand Casino Chip. Mike Tyson versus Evander Holyfield 2 "The Bite Fight!"
Mike Tyson was disqualified and his $30-million purse withheld on this date in 1997 when he spit out his mouthpiece and bit champion Evander Holyfield in the ear twice in the third round of their World Boxing Assn. heavyweight title fight in Las Vegas.
The first bite took a chunk out of Holyfield’s right ear during a clinch, and the second bite, to the left ear and coming just 23 seconds later, caused referee Mills Lane to disqualify the challenger.
