In that situation, whatever you do to avoid being killed, goes.

That was Tyson's victim's comment. That in the street it's one thing, but in the ring there are rules to follow.

“..in the street it’s one thing, but in the ring there are rules to follow...”

Well, sure. Absolutely.

If I’m the guy on the bottom (say Zimmerman), and my head is getting pummeled, if something is within bite range, it’s history, period. ANYTHING to get the guy off.

Boxing ring is a different story entirely.

And this situation - the attacker bit the guy. There’s no excuse for it.

He’s a mad dog.
