--------
Renowned boxing trainer Teddy Atlas was approached to train heavyweight contender Michael Moore. At the time, Moore was undefeated but had a reputation for being difficult to work with. Moore's manager understood Moore's potential and believed Moore needed more than just technical training. Atlas explained that Moore doubted himself due to past issues, such as being abandoned by his father. Moore would challenge people, including walking out on training sessions to test their dedication. Atlas believes the mental side of boxing takes precedence over the physical aspect, particularly in Moore's case. This approach proved successful when in 1994, Moore won against Evander Holyfield to become the world heavyweight champion. Atlas, who had been committed to training champions, felt this achievement was destined, marking a significant moment in his career and validating his belief in the power of mental strength in boxing.

One of the greatest "corner man" moments in boxing history was Teddy talking to Moorer with so much emotion between rounds. It was the push Moorer needed to win the heavyweight championship.

[@ah2552]

You're lying to yourself, Michael!!

[@jaywolfdesigns]

Yes, legendary stuff

[@DougieFresh13]

Teddy was a legend in the corner. In the Foreman fight he was calling exactly what would happen.

[@tennaj1367]

Teddy Atlas is one of the most non BS people I've seen in sports! I usually trust what he says off rip !

[@houndawg]

His breakdown of Foremans comeback was powerful

[@TheIkaraCult]

If you only think Michael Moorer was that fight, go and watch him at Light Heavyweight, he would smoke almost everyone since at 175

[@cb7983]

Hard to take the interviewer seriously when in the first 15sec of the clip he’s calling it the “heavyweight department.”

[@on2wheels378]

I have to ask, is he suffering from Chronic Hiccups like Bo Jackson was?

[@toochangz]

In a polite way, Teddy has always said Michael's problems revolved around abandonment issues

[@biozio186]

There is nothing polite about Teddy

[@krooktype5891]

The heavy weight department -Vlad

[@jamesgrant-il7hl]

Teddy Atlas is one of the boxing options that matter

[@medinagarcia2096]

Moorer already won The WBO Heavyweight Tittle before Teddy came along . Michael Moorer displayed tremendous heart in the Bert Cooper fight which was a Heavyweight classic however Teddy never talks about that .

[@JP-dw1fp]

Why doesn't anyone ask Teddy about the Foreman fight and why Moorer got knocked out? Did Moorer not take his advise? What was up with that fight Teddy?

[@imawesome1822]

You act like teddy was the one who got knocked out . He trained the guy not fight for him

[@Kryptdegen]

This was discussed in legendary nights. Moorer did the opposite of what teddy told him. He went in there and traded with foreman and got caught by the same move teddy was warning him from. He shoulda fought em more like Morrison hit and go

I doubt Teddy cares😂 He got paid for this interview.

[@OmarAyala-j7m]

Is Teddy having hiccups during this interview?

[@donaldstreaty5259]

The crazy thing is Michael Moorer wouldn't last 1 round with Mike Tyson no matter who trained him.

[@earth7551]

Don't about that he had a slugfest with Bert Cooper he hits just as hard as tyson if not harder Cooper almost k.o ed Holyfield tyson couldn't

@earth7551 Tyson knocks out Bert Cooper in 1 to 3 rounds and it would of been a vicious one.
