Forgiven not forgotten: Holyfield pays tribute with Iron Mike t-shirt

This is one of the more unexpected alliances we have come across.

IN ONE OF the more odd sports friendships in recent memory, Evander Holyfield and Mike Tyson seem to have suddenly become besties, despite a heated rivalry in the ring that once led to Tyson biting off a chunk of Holyfield’s ear.

The latest volley was a picture Holyfield posted of himself on Twitter (see below) in which he is wearing a white t-shirt emblazoned with Tyson’s famous face tattoo.

Holyfield may have only gotten a t-shirt. But we get to enjoy the spoils of one of the better, and unexpected, friendships in sports.
