Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield to Reunite on Oprah

Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield

Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield will meet again — not in the ring, but on Oprah's couch.

The boxing rivals are scheduled to appear on The Oprah Winfrey Show on Friday, Harpo announced. It will mark the first time the fighters have appeared together since their infamous June 28, 1997, bout, during which Tyson was disqualified after biting off part of Holyfield's right ear.

Tyson: "It's like a Greek tragedy. The only problem is, I'm the subject"

During the episode, Tyson, who appeared on Oprah on Monday to discuss the death of his daughter, will also answer questions from the studio audience.
