In one of the weirdest things you’ll ever see in a boxing ring–right up there with fan man and Mike Tyson‘s bite of Evander Holyfield–Kash Ali tackled and bit David Price during their Heavyweight scarp on Saturday, March 30, 2019.
WTF! 😱

Price and Ali are former sparring partners, but that didn’t stop Ali committing a disgusting fowl.
The bite happened in Round 5 when Price, 35, landed a hard shot on his 27-year old opponent. Ali, who was previously unbeaten, left the arena to boos and heckling from fans.
Many people, including ringside commentator and former champion Tony Bellew, believe Ali should face the strictest of punishments.
“He should not be paid for the fight–give the money to grassroots boxing and help develop amateur boxing,” said Bellew (per The Guardian). “Biting a man when he’s on the floor… there aren’t many things lower.”
