The incident came to be known as The Bite Fight against Evander Holyfield. Mike’s cannabis brand, Tyson 2.0, announced a new product, ear-shaped edibles titled Mike Bites, which also has a missing chunk.
The company announced the product through Twitter on March 15.

While announcing on Twitter, the weed brand said that the gummies would be sold at dispensaries in Massachusetts, California, and Nevada. He also put his stamp of approval on the gummies, writing,
“These ears actually taste good!”
The Mirror reported that Tyson pitched the idea of the gummies to Holyfield in 2019 on an episode of Hotboxin’ With Mike Tyson podcast. Holyfield said,
“People keep asking, ‘How are you gonna forgive something like that? I say, everything that ever happened, at some point in time, I did it. Mike bit me, I say I bit somebody too – it just wasn’t on TV. I bit a guy in his shoulder, he dropped me, and I didn’t know when you had a concussion, you’ll bite too. You might be in business because we’re going to make some holy ears. Some edibles [of the ear] that got a bite taken out of ‘em.”
In 1997, Tyson bit off a chunk of Holyfield's ear before spitting it out onto the canvas. Although the match resumed, the boxer was disqualified, his boxing license was revoked, and he was fined $3 million.
