Mike Tyson, 58, explained his habit of biting his glove during his recent boxing match against Jake Paul. He described it as a "biting fixation" in a post-fight interview, referencing his infamous ear-biting incident with Evander Holyfield in 1997. The fight took place at AT&T Stadium, where Paul won by unanimous decision with scores of 80-72, 79-73, and 79-73. This marked Tyson's first professional fight since 2005, although he participated in an exhibition match in 2020. Jake Paul, now 11-1 as a professional, has previously defeated several mixed martial arts fighters and lesser-known boxers. The match drew attention for its controversial nature and Tyson's unusual behavior in the ring.
