Mike Tyson returns Evander Holyfield’s ear as part of a new Foot Locker commercial.

The commercial, advertising the shoe retailer’s ‘Week of Greatness,’ opens with Cleveland Cavalier Kyrie Irving saying how the week-long promotion makes him feel like “all is right with the world.”

We then see a series of different athletes, beginning with Tyson and Holyfield.

Tyson rings Holyfield’s doorbell and returns his ear, 16 years after he bit it off during a boxing match. The two former professional boxers then hug it out.

Former NBA star Dennis Rodman is also featured buying a one-way flight to North Korea, in lieu of a round trip, and former NFL quarterback Brett Farve jokes that, “a man’s got to know when to walk away.”

Watch the full ad below and let us know what you think in the comments.
