The typical bragging match before the tournaments would be great too. Hollyfield only got his ear slightly trimmed, and to be honest with you, I'd be glad to tear off the top of my ear just to NOT get hit by Mike Tyson, you know, if he gave me a choice and said "I'm going to bite off the top of your ear, or I'm going to punch you in the face" (try to hear Tyson's voice), I'd go with the ear.
