Mike Tyson on What Cus D'amato Taught Him | Joe Rogan

Lol it seemed weird. Btw he didn’t train every day with Cus, a lot of the time it was Atlas or Rooney training him

[@давидцыгановский]

[@bryangallardo5048]

Exactly! Joe Rogan shut the fuck up, Tyson is talking to you, not you talking to him. How tf u gonna tell Tyson what his dad was like when you didn’t actually meat him. Nevertheless, never bring up irrelevant shit like Justin Bieber. Tyson don’t even know who Bieber is. Joe Rogan is so trash for this interview.

[@mi8los]

You punks read the top comment and just repeat it. The reason why Joe is the most famous podcast host is because he is curious. He wasn’t teaching Mike what Cus was like, he was telling him what kind of impression he left on him. But you dumb bitches can’t even understand that.

You're so right thing that's what Teddy Atlas said Tyson was 13 yrs old 190lbs with a neck full of muscle and could already punch like a heavy weight. I don't think it takes too much of a genius to see he was a natural. He only needed discipline and technique the rest was just natural ability.

The craziest thing is Cus saw the potential in Mike long before we even saw him in his best condition. For that man to tell that young boy "you have the chance to be the greatest boxer". Like Mike said any person in that position would feel like they're being hyped up. Now we see knockout highlight reels of Mike and think "one of the best to ever box". The world is an amazing place sometimes. The things that can happen when people meet by chance.

[@dalekelly7639]

JMSONE I bet every day in almost any country there is a young person who has the potential to be one of the greatest ever seen at a given discipline, given the right mentorship.

[@keeperkai999]

Dude, to say at that time he could be the greatest is still definitely a long shot, but make no mistake, Cus doesn't go up to random people and say this to them, Mike must have had a lot of potential and he's just being humble in putting it that way, sounding like he was a small kid with no physical/mental potential, which is far from the truth. The truth is they were both lucky they had met and created something amazing together.

[@joshschaeffer3300]

Mike is actually a boxing scholar on the level of Cus. The student is at least equal in knowledge to the old master and may have surpassed him in many regards. Being the equal of Cus and being able to teach and communicate it like Joe was saying is two different things and Cus still stands supreme but it's often overlooked how intelligent Mike Tyson is and the depth and breadth of his knowledge on pretty much all aspects of boxing and has the actual career experience, which was one of a kind, to put with it. He was watching film from the D'amato library when he was 14 and had Cus giving him personal instruction and commentary on all the greats and some fighters people never even heard of but were no less great. Like an old samurai master with his greatest pupil just unloading the distilled wisdom of 80 years in and out of the ring.

By the sounds of it, Cus Damato practiced something known as "stoicism", a classical philosophy that originated in ancient Greece and perfected in Rome by Marcus Aurelio, the ability to cancel feelings and emotions and just accept life as it is.

"Unprecedented grasp of the mindset required for combat sports" nails Cus D amto's own mindset. Well put. Was amazed by Cus as a kid the way he could visualise a fight playing out. He was like a computer that could analyse the most likely responses an opponent would display in any situation. Didnt look it but was a dangerous man.

[@MattyNut]

Everything Cus did was History that will be told for hundreds of years we have witnessed his soul and teachings which leaves me with goosebumps- for Mike Tyson to have gone through everything with Cus must of been magical I look at mike in-oar and carry Cus in my Heart R.I.P to the true Champion.

Tyson may have retired undefeated, stayed out of prison, and been the most popular and respected boxer of all time had his mentor been alive throughout his career. Mike lost his edge the further he fought after his death. I have never seen someone so tactically sound and intimidating as Tyson while in his short prime. Cus put Mike in a focused mental state that he could not find with other mentors and trainers.

"Lightning has struck me twice" - Cus D'Amato. I recommend everyone read "Iron Ambition: My Life with Cus D'amato." It's like Cus' biography with tons of great early stuff of Mike's journey. They immediately saw that he was special. First it was Bobby Stewart in juvvie as a 13 year old. Who handed him over to Cus and Atlas/Rooney who trained him with Cus' flanking peak-a-boo style. Guy had a man's body at 14. Remarkable specimen. Could move like that and hit that hard. And was hungry as hell. He would go back to his room in juvvie and shadowbox in his room all night long. With Cus all he would do was train and then destroy. For years. No social life. The combination of that hunger with those genetic gifts and then the right training and Cus brainwashing, forget about it. Youngest champ ever. Could have been the Goat if all that stayed in place, no doubt. Which was Cus' second prophecy. Early Tyson is my favourite Tyson.
