I love the way Teddy puts whole being into his shots a credit to cus I'm enjoying Teddy atlas and tysons time on earth descendents of cus havnt forgot about Mr Rooney either sometimes I pretend I'm Tyson in the mirror and I most likely do all the wrong techniques just a fan not an athlete I fancy my chances against the grumpy bin man but might be part of the dumping site next bin day ha

[@blackprimeminister]

@@daboxingscholar It's not that. They are both interested, but there's pride and hurt involved. Both are big-hearted and emotional men. It has nothing whatsoever to do with "interest". Both men would jump at the opportunity, if they could navigate the web of disappointment, rejection and ill-feeling. It was a divorce. Two people who loved each other. Sometimes, the pair never speak again in life, but it's not because they're "not interested". That would be a lie, and an obvious lie to observers. Such is the case, here.

If tyson hadn't been made to fire atlas and rooney by don king, this fast peek-a-boo style would have mad him a totally different proposition in later fights. instead kings trainers had him fight as a big hitter - he hit hard anyway! i suppose from kings point of view, if you train him the wrong way you know who to put your money on. shame.

I don't know if I'll become a boxer, but I am most definitely training. I am developing my body and mind, and your wisdom is getting me there.

My favourite combo in Boxing-devastating when Mike threw it.

[@SmedleyButlerIII]

The suspense I have watching this..waiting on the legendary WHAP!! WHAP!! BAM! BAM!!!

[@rockabye_baby187]

To me, and idc if others disagree, Mike Tyson used the same approach to striking opponents that Rocky Marciano did. The difference is, Rocky was a bit unorthodox where we see his head was always leaned to the side, he had a subtle feint, usually a fake lunge, followed by short compact strikes thrown...what parts of the body? Ribs, temple, chin, breastbone, liver area (on left side). If a boxer...focuses on closing distance...letting their hands go quickly, recoiling from torso up to protect vs counter punch thrown, then quickly reload and strike behind the counter...it's a vicious chain of activity that usually lays dudes out cold. If they do have a chin and heart, it absolutely saps energy or inside provokes angst as we see often with a boxer wilting their defensive fundamentals mostly where we're told to always keep our hands elevated to block further followup punches thrown. It also can become a creative way to bluff your opponent into believing you're hurt, when they charge in or get distracted momentarily (they think they're close to "being ready to go." See Tommy Morrison get brutally dropped by...I think it was Mercer? Marquez vs Pacquiao where Pacman was laid out face first from a check hook, Hatton vs Mayweather same punch and sent Ricky into the ring post.)

[@chrislloyd7249]

1:08 is just unreal. Period.

[@SiLoMixMaster]

Roy Jones and Dillian Whyte need to watch this on repeat because Tyson and Povetkin have this move perfected.

[@blackprimeminister]

I can't understand how fools claim Povetkin "got lucky". "Lucky punch". What is lucky about skill?

[@aaronstorey9712]

@@blackprimeminister povetkin established that move early

[@blackprimeminister]

Aaron Storey Whyte is in a tough place. It’s really hard to counter. The best way to control it is with the jab, which he was doing until he got a bit lazy. I believe a rematch will see a repeat. Most big men are vulnerable to the D’Amato style. A good bob-weave rib banger in Joe Frazier mode is kryptonite for big men getting ever-bigger. Or foul your way to victory, like Klit did. My money says Povetkin wins the world title. Only his aging legs can stop him.

Tyson and Povetkin were both trained by Teddy Atlas

[@davidanthony4960]

this must be torture for teddy hahahaha.. the last guy he wants to really talk about or touch on "mike" is the only guy people want to request him to talk about looooool.. ahh poor teddy u gotta love him

[@blackprimeminister]

Really? You can see how proud he is of Tyson, because Iron Mike's success was really his own success. He was part of the team that built, for a short time, maybe the greatest fighter the world has on tape. No matter how it ended, this is still true, and it will be how Teddy is remembered after he's gone.

[@richardwhite8529]

@DavidAnthony that’s exactly what l was thinking . I won’t be forgetting how much animosity teddy had against Mike . it’s only the last few months he’s acting like it didn’t exist . Mike doesn’t hold grudges or at least tries his best not to and l bet Mike would be happy to have teddy on and lay it all on the line on hotboxin and let’s not forget that in reality teddy wouldn’t have a podcast or a brand of merchandise if it wasn’t for Mike . That’s just how l see it . Obviously there’s things most of us don’t know but we’re entitled to have opinions

@.Mr Nzeribe If you search Teddy Atlas talks to joe Joe Rogan about Mike Tyson You’ll see how bitter he really is about Mike. He basically said that mikes record is 0 for 5 or something stupid like that . You won’t hear him talking about Michael Moorer like that . Why ? When Moorer was destroyed by Holmes after Mike had beaten Holmes . Honestly, l don’t think Teddy is the morally perfect person he makes himself out to be .

[@E.Carrillo]

If Iron Mike would have kept good guys around him, he could have gone much further in his career.

[@E.Carrillo]

D A N D Y W A V E S very true!

[@SiLoMixMaster]

Nah he just got beat by better boxers, no excuses. For some reason Mike Tyson is allowed 1 million excuses for losing, but the fact is he was just massively overrated. No trainer or manager or whoever was ever going to help him beat Buster Douglas, Evander Holyfield or Lennox Lewis. Riddick Bowe would have smashed him as well.

[@E.Carrillo]

SiLo Mixing and Mastering no way that Buster Douglas was better. Tyson got tangled up with Don King and a bad marriage. When Cus died, he deteriorated.

[@imadeyoureadthis1500]

SiLo Mixing and Mastering that’s like saying 60s Ali was the same as late 70s Ali, and that Leon Spinks would of beat a prime Ali, no excuses as u say

[@RomarioFouardo]

Love to see you guys healthy and well, love the show

[@marccaruso1351]

Tyson had a great left-hook, too, and as he started to pile up a body count, he had to incorporate new punches because guys were so afraid of it. Hence, the right uppercut as guys would automatically duck away from the left-side load up, and then usually move right into the right-uppercut. And then Tyson could feint the left hook, and get to the right uppercut even earlier.

[@jsj297]

Yes! ^^^ Dude right here nailed it. Of course Teddy was just breaking down his basic set - one 64 combo. But you are 100% right later on with that left hook! This guy right here probably a dam good boxer I bet. 🥊

Master Atlas, are you going to teach Tyson again for his return to boxing? Could you please teach how to do quick shadowing boxing like Tyson (at 1:08)? What secret did you teach Tyson in that time so that he threw such fast punches in shadow boxing? I even cannot see clearly about his movements which you taught him.

Welcome to "THE FIGHT with TEDDY ATLAS.. joined as always with legendary trainer TEDDY ATLAS"

[@omardaniel1]

I enjoy these videos! I like when Teddy gets intense Gets all into it. Good sense of humor too.

[@davidanthony4960]

please explain why most boxers get taught to throw the right hand down the pipe... and in a very straight line not bending forward or leaning at all... but mike seemed to be taught to really throw his shoulder into it and almost lean to his left when the punch was finished... "not talking about overhand right here" im talking about his version of the straight right... it always looks as tho it has a hell of a lot more follow thru than other fighters.. and sometimes he even follows thru stepping into southpaw off the right hand

[@skip741x3]

Tyson Does lean to the left as he throws that straight right and the reason is to get his head Off the centerline so he's not right "there" to recieve a counter after he throws... it places him in position for a rip to the liver and the signature uppercut that follows as demoed here...I always take my head slightly off the centerline when throwing ofr the same reason and it does allow a deeper committ and followthrough to the punch thrown

[@bigbaby9189]

He had to step into range to land so moving forward and to the left would dip him under a potential counter and also set him up for this kind of combo in this demo
