Watch Me Now (1983) | Documentary

[@JasonGarber-n9y]

Man i would have absolutely loved to have people like that around me to learn boxing from, rooney atlas and cus were all very smart and cared about what they were doing . tyson had a great team , his cut man and his two managers made up the perfect team , that was "TEAM TYSON " he shoulda stayed with them.

[@Budsport_TV]

Hard to keep the team together when Tyson split them apart. He should have never put his hands on Teddy’s family. He messed it up and knows that now, and in his great wisdom that he’s earned with age has since apologized to Atlas.

[@AntoniioEduard]

Look kid, be the team mate you would love to have, for a young boy. Make them legends. Who knows...

[@maxwellmorton5693]

How does this only have 400 views?

[@TheBatugan77]

Because roughly 400 people viewed it? Just a guess.

[@knucklegame5050]

Lol

[@angelonewyork]

The fact that this video less than 500 views. Is a absolute travesty. It is either bc boxing ppl don’t know the film exists on KZbin, or those same so called “hardcore” boxing fans are spending too much time following Twitter beefs and posts and shit, rather than watching a boxing film like this. That has MORE BOXING PSYCHOLOGICAL GEMS THAN I COULD COUNT! RIP CUS ❤

[@Kal-El207]

The way you specifically explained that, lets me know that YOU are the fans you speak about. Share this vid and spread it so they know fam. Stay off twitter next time.

[@Emir-bu1pv]

Twitter is certainly mostly fools and idiots

[@lackynahal4003]

I watch a lot of boxing old and new. Even as far back as Jack Johnson who Ali spoke about. This documentary came as a suggestion by YT that i might like. I watched it to the end. The footage was quite emotional- seeing what Cus and Atlas did for the youth of their neighbourhood. And seeing the making of Iron Mike. Huge credit to Atlas and Cus.

[@seanoleary1979]

...no one knows it exists! If they did, this gem would have more than a million views - easily!

[@VRNESTX]

One of the most important pieces of boxing history ever.

[@LittleRapGuy]

This video is the definition of old school.

The kid singing float like a butterfly sting like a bee was cracking me up ! 😄 i wonder where this kid is now and what became of him....

[@chapsteronetime2000]

These were the good ole days before cus passed and all the claws came into take over the money man the champ the kid dynamite iron man Tyson!! Solid people around him back then made the solid unbeatable team

[@bloodsweatandsteel]

Awesome video ❤

[@nnnnick4444]

Awesome, awesome documentary. The film crew just stays out the way and let things evolve. Tyson should've listened to kid at 52:25, lol!

[@jozuacami2018]

Great comment 😂🤣

[@thewinners7253]

The irony even prophetic. I wonder whatever happened with this kid? He might be in his mid to late 40's.

[@brianj.m.5016]

This documentary is amazing!!

[@RyanMclain]

Greatly appreciated and enjoyed. Thanks

[@knucklegame5050]

Classic Golden Footage💯💯👌🏾

[@JasonGarber-n9y]

If i could have a wish he wished for a bunch of cars , Then the kid say i want my very own house with slaves and id whip em to death ! WTF! then he says i wouldnt do it tho .... Thats just how i feel..... That shit suprised the hell outta me ! 😱🤕

[@ccd1651]

Why? 😂 young kids are some of the cruelest

[@garethhodgson5635]

Teddy atlas is a legend

[@joeblough261]

Well, we know where Teddy got, "bang! Bang!" From, lol. For all you lovers of this, I suggest getting Teddy's audiobook.

[@peekabooboxingacademy]

@@joeblough261 Right! I listened to it three times.

[@joeblough261]

@@peekabooboxingacademy I'm about to give it another listen, I've done it 2x so far :) Thx so much for posting this absolute gem...I've seen some of the footage before but never even close to the whole movie, and it's even better than I thought. Did you ever see the clip from 10-15 years ago where Teddy goes off on some big guy at a diner? It's classic. The guy who posted the video walked in to the men's room and Teddy and the other guy were already going at it. Haha. Teddy's one man I'd want in a fox hole with me for sure.

[@peekabooboxingacademy]

@@joeblough261 Haha no I haven’t but I’ll have to check it out. One of my mentors Darren was trained by Teddy back in the 80s. He said that whenever Teddy took him and the other fighters down to the Bronx for smokers, he would often end up physically getting into fights with other coaches when he found out they lied about their fighter’s record. Definitely a fighter.

[@ernestfort7880]

I hope n pray ur still here

[@PennyRDA]

I loved to see how calm, cool and composed Teddy was whilst coaching these kids. Imagine if he'd trained Tyson for the Jake Paul and KOd the fuck out of him

[@joethomas3388]

I’m jealous of 1982

[@tonynewman8586]

You gotta take your hat off to teddy atlas / incredible human being - I hope Tyson appreciates him and the other kids he helped - let’s face it - he trained the best fighter to ever wear box -

[@PwrthrupN]

Back when it was still real in America

[@fordablunts]

That house was a time chamber

[@krissifadwa]

This was well directed. Almost comes off more as a scripted film than an actual documentary.

[@federico93R]

Bello davvero

I’m still wondering what’s “a cold one and a hot one” that she was offering in the beginning 😂

[@ccd1651]

Cold beer, hot meal

[@glennbradley1374]

I thought it was way more nasty. The way she was talking to truckers saying the light was on and crap like that made it sound like she was giving wet ones and dry ones

[@Ridder020]

This was 1982 and Mike was 15yo

[@Emir-bu1pv]

16

@@Emir-bu1pv do your research before you post a comment, you don't know anything just don’t talk, are you angry that hé was 15yo and knock grown man the fuck out?

[@sheriffbiggley-rh8tx]

Wow Teddy had that sinus problem back then...

[@krissifadwa]

He was and still is a mouth breather. He stopped his amateur boxing career due to a back injury. But something tells me he also, like most fighters, ended up with a deviated septum, which ruins your chance at nasal breathing; which is also useful while fighting. If you'd like to know what a nasal deviation feels like, pinch your nose bridge and slightly bend it and attempt to breathe through your nostrils. It barely pulls nitrogen through your nose, hence forcing you to breathe through your mouth, which is a poor way to breathe (through the mouth.)

[@emir3861]

nice

[@michaelrayii7102]

Wonder has Tyson seen this?

[@brian2100]

atlas

[@MrMLD1972]

👍🏾

[@cherrytie1060]

It's beautiful seeing Mike thrive in this situation... it's in stark contrast to seeing him with those islamic incubi he was eventually surrounded with when he nearly bit Evanders' ear off! But you gotta be aware of those "wh:te devils"... they are trouble! :|

[@TheRealTomahawk]

Bundini had a half-white son so does that make him half a devil?
