Mike Tyson & Evander Holyfield: Heavyweight Boxing Legends Join Larry 

Zoo

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.

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!!

Maybe even longer

I don't think I ever saw him looking different ha

And Going Strong!

Conan, is that you?

Lol! True!

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

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.

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"

Ozzy 💯

Didn't know Larry was from Brownsville

Hahaha

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

LMAO

The ironic thing is guys like Wilder, Fury, and Joshua would have soundly beaten Ali and Tyson.

@@MrReav13 You are sadly mistaken.

@@MrReav13 You are no longer aloud to drink and make comments... Infact go to your room...

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.

He just looks like a kid. Funny, n its amazing

He could never beat Evander lol

U came to this video from RU-vid shorts

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.

hes the guy that got bit by mike tyson for the rest of his life

@@MuscleLikeMarquiel facts and Holyfield never apologized but Mike did

@@thegoat____564 indeed that's just how it is though the world is unfair man

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.

smoothcollected Nope, humans are not animals. Humans have a soul animals do not. It's pretty simple actually. And no need for name calling.

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.

say the wrong thing to him and he loses it still hes the same

Mike did change but he a realist he take life’s punches and keep going

He didn't change he grew old, put him back in his prime and he be the same .

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.

Only if they want to.

Lollll

fudonly 😅

Lmaooo

Two amateur bullies with the professional bully

@@jagga309😂

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.

Barney Ross even more reason to love him

Barney Ross oh no how will I ever go on with my life

1mad rs hahahahaha 😂 u got a thumbs down 👎 for voting...you should just go into exile now since someone on RU-vid gave u a thumbs down 👎

"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.

I thaid thorry 😂

Oh my God!!! I said the same. I Love Mike 💞💞 like a little kid.

This is like the sweetest interview.

The guy next to him is a real man.

Iron Mike has grown so much. It's two real men sitting there at this point in time

Yea because your fake thats why

@@jeffwisener1378 you're right

Facts

😂😂😂

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

Lmaoo

Lmfao I fuckin died after he said that.

@902 biking that combined with many other things as well. For example, frustration with headbutts, fustration with life and people, drugs(most likely also)

@902 biking, I agree. He Owns His Actions & Emotions. That's Real. Admitting your failures in the shower is hard. Admitting your Failures and short comings W/O Excuse, in front of Thousands ....EPIC God surely Believes in Mike. Other men, Especisally Professional Athletes could benefit from BOTH of these guys. Sports is the Stage of Life.

He bit him because Holyfield headbutted him, why didn’t he just tell the truth?

nah this was filmed in 2013, just uploaded a year ago

Evander is just scared of him

@@mr.t658 I don't believe that for one second

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

???

🤣🤣

Hes a CAGED BEAST

when he said that

Bill Lizard Cus D’Amato.

@@Motorlizard cusamano? Tf is that

Cus D’Amato

A true fighter understands the difference between violence and when to be humane.

And that they can laugh about it and really seem to like each other. Great to see.🥊🌩️🥊

Scott Steel IKR! They have great chemistry. Very very mature, emotionally mature the both of them.

@@ashsmitty2244 They're two warrior spirits that have a mutual admiration and respect.They really are both good men, and you can see that. 🥊🌩️🥊

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.

Average fighters become the undisputed champions? I didn't know that, thank you boxing expert ;)

true

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.

Paul Hardy me too😅😂😂

He's an alien

😞

This isn't funny anymore

well, this certainly isn't funny like it was once

B

Holyfield has class? Do you not know why Tyson bit him?

@@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.

Holyfield has no class. He cheated. If he had class he would've admitted that he was cheating and that's what provoked Mike to bite his ear.

@@KC-bg1th you tell us why?

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.

He’s dead, how can God bless him? Lol he’ll bless him when he raises him from the dead man.

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

+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

@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?

@Sizzle Wrap edited my og comment

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

@Sizzle Wrap You are such an ignorant sheep

Andy M Personally I love MMA now. Just as intense as the tyson era

Mark Mirabella I live in Scotland if I want to watch mma I just look out the window any given weeknight.

Andy M comparing drunken scots fighting is an insult to the thousands of years it took for each martial art (including boxing) to form and merge into the art and sport of fighting.

Centurian 👍🏻👌🏻

It still exists this year has/had some great fights. Canelo vs Golovkin, WBSS Tournament with Usyk, fury vs wilder, joshua vs povetkin Lomachenko vs linares Usyk vs bellew

van kk you seen the clip posted a few years back of him hitting the heavy bag? He’s still an absolute beast ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-V_qSr-Z_1x0.html

@@joshuafarmer1561 yea I've seen this one

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

he aint trying to start a fight lol

he tried to get them to say it.

Maybe that could have been brought to the table, but is such a difficult theme .. brought wrongly it will have destroyed an amazing, friendly and funny interview ... and yet ... we all know that the headbutts it is what brought Mike to madness...

@@mathusan Honestly, I agree with that, and although they are now friends and it is a good thing to see, I wonder how both of them feel inside knowing that only part of the story is being told.. Wish that that would be addressed openly

exactly

True, always true to himself

Experienced in the road of hard knocks yes, intelligent, don't see it on any interviews.

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

That ability to get those he interviewed to feel comfortable enough to speak deeply about themselves was Larry King greatness...so underrated

I would pay anything to have Tyson train me.

Cus D'amato best teacher of boxing Mike his greatest disciple

@@sofritopapi No wouldn't, you'll be gone in a weird circumstances 🤤😜😴😨🤯😱😵

Mike Tyson👌🏽

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.

nah douglas is better

​@@griefer5846who?

If you continue to water a seed, give it love, and never give up on it...eventually it will show you it’s beauty.

Yep.🥊❤️🥊

trilogy for what? evander win 2.

I would,if he had dared to face Holy then.

Me too in my eyes he is the best ever
