MIKE TYSON has revealed he wanted to K.I.L.L Evander Holyfield but settled for biting a chunk out of his ear.
But he explained his fury with his opponent came from Holyfield’s tactical use of the head in both fights.
Tyson, 54, told Fox News: “I bit him because I wanted to kill him.
“I was really mad about my head being bumped and everything. I really lost consciousness of the whole fight. It took me out of my fight plan and everything.
“Listen, good or bad, I’m not going to let anyone take my glory. “So, I’m going to confront everything that I have to confront… Hey listen, I done it. I got to handle the responsibility of it.
“That was my glory. And I took responsibility for it.”
And when asked whether he would act the same way if he was in the same position, he said: “I hope not..
“I say, ‘No, never ever again’ but I might do it again. Well if he does what he was doing to get bitten, I would bite him again, yeah.”
