On 28 July 1997, in the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield engaged in what would become the most infamous fight in boxing history. After the third round of a heavyweight championship match, Tyson was disqualified for biting each of Holyfield's ears in what is now commonly called âe~the Bite Fightâe(tm). But what drives a man to viciously bite another man? Was it a mental breakdown? Was it fear? Was it retaliation? In Twice Bitten, renowned sports columnist George Willis not only details what triggered Tyson to explode into a rage that led to him biting off and spitting out a chunk of Holyfield's ear but also exposes the panic that engulfed MGM's corridors in the aftermath. It also reveals the answers to the following questions: what happened to the piece of ear that Tyson chewed off and spit out? Why didnâe(tm)t Holyfield reattach it? And was it popping champagne bottles or gunshots that caused a near-riot in the MGM corridors and casinos that night? Twice Bitten will enlighten readers on how that night has affected both boxers as they reach middle age. Fifteen years later, the Bite Fight still leaves its marks.

I kind of got a Twilight vibe off of this story except better writing and characters that you can relate to. And OMG the cringe-worthy moments!! Bree in Issy's closet and Bree's bedroom with Aiden!! I was embarrassed reading those parts, but they were too awesome not to continue!" - Taiyewo from Goodreads "It wasn't cheesey like a lot of YA paranormal books are these days where everything out of the male leads mouth is like sweet poetry and he has the body of a god. The dialogue was appropriate and my favorite part was the teenagers actually acted like teenagers sweet but flawed and still trying to figure themselves out while doing normal teenage things like getting there first car and going to the mall." - Candace from Goodreads Categories: paranormal, werewolves, young adult werewolf, young adult werewolf romance, young adult werewolf books, teen boy books, young adult humor, teen love stories, teen supernatural romance, and teen high school romance.
