www.confusingtheenemy.com The Cus D'Amato Story. There is an entire chapter dedicated to the genesis of the "Willie Bag and the D'Amato style..AKA the Peek a Boo coined by Teddy Brenner an old boxing promoter, actually mocking Cus.

[@scarfo441]

Can you ask teddy how he got that razor scar on the side of his face?

[@ProdbyCeeSick]

HEY MR ATLAS YOU SHOULD CHARGE PEOPLE TO TRAIN THEM ON ZOOM OR KZbin LIVE OR SOMETHING! I’d be honored to be your first paying client!! AND I’M NOT TALKING TRAINING FOR THE TITLE BUT CREATE MORE OF A EXERCISE ROUTINE OR SOMETHING . JUST A THOUGHT/WISH LOLThanks gentleman. Enjoyed the show as usual. Been binge watching!

[@donde1760]

Thanks Teddy!! Cus was a good friend of my dad, who past away in 1965 when I was just 5. I heard stories of their times with him, Floyd Patterson and days at a training camp in Greenwood Lake, NY (My dad was a part owner). I finally got to visit him in Catskill in the early 80"s, heard stories about my dad and had dinner with Cus, Camille, Kevin Rooney, Teddy Atlas and Mike Tyson...I day I will never forget. Mike was training for the Jr. Olympics and had a fight that night which I had a front row seat to. What a day nearly 40 years ago. I look forward to Part 2 and reading the book!

[@JeffPenaify]

@@hichamnajeh858 he never tirned pro but he was a golden glove winning amateur boxer, he got a back injury that took him out of the sport and Cus had him help training. That was how it was back then if you were in the gym but werent that talented to be a pro fighter theyd start having you do corner stuff and show you the ropes as a teacher

[@YoYo-ys9hk]

33:30 Cus: Get up here NOW!!! Priceless I like listening to Teddy's story's their family friendly and my kids can listen and learn about the history of boxing from a Legend

[@davidanthony4960]

listen..cus is the only trainer who has taken someone from virtually out of school to saving him from a road to death and prison completely transformed his character and turned him into world champion and a sporting icon... THAT is real... anyone can hold pads and teach someone how to throw a jab and how to move in and out effectively with a bit of knowledg patience and care.... what cut did was another level

I love how Teddy talks through movies. His humility is refreshing.

[@DavyRo]

As a British boxing fan, I can say Teddy is no where near as known over here as what he is in the states. Big fans & boxers know him of course. But I've always found his opinions on fights & fighters to be top draw. In fact I've not heard anyone better than him. Soy respect for him is massive. But listening to this interview, I see him in an even better way if that was possible. This is one of the best interviews I've ever heard. Not just about boxing but every subject. Cus D'amto is a legend of boxing, his knowledge was just out of this world. Teddy was a lucky to become a student of his. Not as lucky Mike Tyson was but Cus had left his mark on this world. That most could only dream about.

+THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas the great teddy should react to Tyson at 53 not missing a step like 3 days ago (power,technique, n speed) it's all there AT 53YRS OLD😮💪

[@bigbaba1491]

Every boxer looks incredibly fast going through these motions, what tyson does is not impressive at all. 53 isnt that old either, what you expect from a 53 year old, walking with a cane? Teddy is older than tyson and looks fast aswell when he is demonstrating stuff, that doesnt mean he is good or in any shape to fight though.

[@SlipNCounter26]

Not every boxer bro ...but I understand where your getting at. 👌🏼

[@chrishett99]

What suprised me is the fact that I heard Tyson say that he doesn't throw punches anymore, nor hit the bag. He said doing those things take him to a place mentally that he doesn't like to be. I wonder what happened to make him practice a little bit.

Real World Warrior lowen thanks for the facts. The gun incident is so scary to me, why did he do that to a young mike Tyson? Didn’t Tyson sexually assault a young girl, but still yet pull a gun on him? That seems a little much to me. That would be my guess as to why mike never really wanted him around anymore? Also, I’m guessing atlas had herniated discs in his back or something along those lines?
