Oprah hosts Tyson and Holyfield

Oprah Winfrey has reportedly brought peace between Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield.

The talkshow host brought the boxing champions together to talk about their 1997 Heavyweight title match at length for the first time, in which Tyson was disqualified for biting off part of Holyfield's right ear, reports The Huffington Post.

During a live episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show on Friday, the former fighters shook hands and made peace over the incident.

Tyson said: "This is a beautiful guy. I just want you to know it's just been a pleasure... being acquainted with you."

Oscar-winning actor Jamie Foxx recently confirmed that he is working on a biopic of Mike Tyson.
