JAKARTA - World boxing legend Mike Tyson is again seen getting along with his old rival, Evander Holyfield. Both are known to work together to release Christmas edition products, in the form of ear-shaped marijuana candy.
Tyson and Holyfield first fought in 1996. The following year, their rematch became controversial.
Holyfield won the rematch. However, the victory was controversial because Tyson was disqualified for biting Holyfield's ear.
After the incident, Tyson and Holyfield's good relationship was strained. But now, after two and a half decades have passed, the two have reunited on behalf of business, as reported by The Sun, Tuesday, November 15, 2022.
Tyason, 56, owns a cannabis company and releases a product in the form of Mike Bites. It's sweet marijuana candy in the form of ear pieces.
The product was deliberately launched by Tyson as a form of memories of his rematch with Holyfield. The product's launch was special because Holyfield was also directly involved in the promotional photo-taking process.
Recalling the incident in the ring with Holyfield, Tyson joked, "If I used marijuana, I wouldn't bite his ear (Holyfield)!" Tyson said.
Holyfield then added, "I didn't think it was funny at first, but then I realized that Mike was no longer in trouble for a while."
Until the collaboration was released, Holyfield had never tried it. However, after tasting it for the first time, he said the thing that made him laugh.
"I want to make sure I go home and don't do anything to anyone. I eat it and lie down. I woke up the next morning and said,'men't," said Holyfield.
