It’s The Ear And Now For Tyson And Edibles
(now a cannabis mogul, ac- cording to nj.com) was set to debut his “bitten-ear-shaped” edibles at three New Jersey dispensaries. Tyson, you may remember, bit off part of Evander Holyfield’s ear and spit it out 25 years ago during a boxing match in Las Vegas.
James Hunt, 41, and his girlfriend got into it at a Clearwater, Florida, Burger King on Aug. 13, because “the victim was not eating her food,” The Smoking Gun reported.

Amanda Kean of Provi- dence, Rhode Island, headed out for work in the early hours of Aug. 22 with her ear pods in, listening to a true-crime podcast.

Tucked on the floor in the back seat was Jose Osorio, 21, of Providence. And he was mostly naked. Police said he was “extremely in- toxicated” and admitted later that he had also consumed marijuana. He was charged with breaking and entering a vehicle.
In an interview earlier this year, Tyson said the “bit- ten-ear” product is his way of controlling the narrative about the infamous moment.
How did police know what happened? There was blood on her shirt and shorts and cheese in her hair. Hunt admitted hitting her with the cheeseburger but didn’t think it would cause her to fall. Nev-
Kean was unhurt but “was so mad. If he had made nois- es or popped up while I was driving, I could’ve crashed.”
“They fined me $3 million for biting his ear,” he said.
“I hear moaning, like a moaning noise,” she told WJAR-TV. “I roll down my window because (I wanted to) check outside ... I realized it
