According to a Guardian report, former heavyweight boxing champions Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield are in discussions for a third match between the two fighters. Their infamous second fight in 1997 ended in disgrace when Tyson, bit off a chunk of Holyfield's ear - which he then spat to the canvas.
