There may be a Mike Tyson-Evander Holyfield trilogy on the horizon.
Tyson is set to come out of retirement for an upcoming exhibition match against fellow veteran Roy Jones Jr. later this month, but the 54-year-old has also been fielding questions about the possible renewal of his rivalry with Holyfield.
“That’s always something that we can do if the people want it, if it’s pragmatic enough, I’d love to do it,” Tyson said when asked if he would like to face Holyfield again, according to The Independent.
The notable heavyweights had two famous bouts in 1996 and 1997, with Holyfield coming out on top each time. The second fight went down in history for Tyson’s infamous bite of Holyfield’s ear, for which Tyson was disqualified.
The 58-year-old Holyfield also teased the possibility of a rematch with Tyson this week.
“Who would like to see Holyfield vs Tyson 3?” he wrote on Instagram. “Or who else would you like to see me get in the ring with in an exhibition?”
