That's right!
On June 28, 1997, in what would become known as "the bite fight", Mike Tyson bit Evander Holyfield's ear, purportedly in retaliation for Holyfield headbutting him. Tyson lost a point, but the fight continued. When Tyson bit Holyfield's other ear and actually removed a chunk of flesh, he was disqualified! Tyson would later be fined $3 million and have his boxing license revoked. Holyfield's ear had to be surgically re-attached after the fight.

Yeah he bit him twice the first time taking a small part at the top of the ear off, and spitting it to the canvas. Ironically Mills Lane the referre who for some reason loads of people though was the best ref in the world at the time, though it was alright for him to do that and let it continue for him to do it twice???.
