In an incident eerily reminiscent of Mike Tyson’s infamous clash with Evander Holyfield, a drunken Thai boxer left a man earless after a savage encounter in Chiang Mai. The attack has prompted pleas for justice from the victim’s distraught girlfriend.

 

In a startling revelation, Duean, a 25 year old from Lampang Province, recounted the gruesome details to reporters. Her boyfriend, an unsuspecting target, was ambushed and horrifically bitten by the inebriated fighter. The assault took place on the evening of November 4, at a dormitory in the Pa Daed subdistrict of Mueang district.

 

According to Duean, her boyfriend had just returned home to freshen up before heading to work when the assailant struck. Without provocation, the so-called boxer, who was boozing in front of the dormitory, launched a brutal punch.

 

Although her boyfriend valiantly defended himself, the encounter took a chilling turn when the assailant, having wrestled him to the ground, bit off his right ear.

 

In a grotesque twist, the boxer spat out the ear before attacking again, this time likely swallowing the severed piece, as it could not be found. The attacker fled the scene, leaving the victim in agony.

 

 

Desperate for justice, Ms Duean has urged the Thai police to hunt down the rogue boxer and hold him accountable.

 

“We will pursue this matter to the end because we have done nothing wrong.”

 

The case is drawing attention, recalling memories of the notorious Tyson-Holyfield showdown, while spotlighting the pressing need for action against such violent outbursts.

 

The clash between Tyson and Holyfield, billed as The Sound and the Fury and afterwards infamously referred to as The Bite Fight, took place on June 28, 1997, for the WBA Heavyweight Championship.

 

It achieved notoriety as one of the most bizarre fights in boxing history after Tyson bit off a part of Holyfield’s ear. Tyson was disqualified from the match and lost his boxing license, though it was later reinstated.

The Thais in Pattaya are sedate when compared to their neighbours to the north.  Best course of action is to find the drunk and leave a bottle of wood alcohol where he can find it. Observe from a concealed location and enjoy the show. Is the Thai phrase "lan ken"?
