This bit at 4:06 where Cus says that Mike is the reason he's still alive: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3mw8xFUxs0&list=UUXuTtQdGB6gRhvtaa3rZ8uw I've seen that particular clip from that interview a thousand times in a thousand different places, but I've never seen the whole interview. Does anyone know whether it is out there, online anywhere?
Sad waste of once in a generation god gifted talent, Tyson. Cus d amato would be utterly devastated if he were alive to see the talent Tyson squandered
i think Cus knew Tyson was a headcase all along, Tyson himself said Cus used to tell Tyson that hes the sort of person who will never learn until hes hurt. He had plenty of opportunities to turn himself round but he never did, until now at the age of nearly 50
^ yep. at least he is doing it now though, it could be a lot worse for Mike. I never envisioned a good end after the bite etc.
How do you work that out? I thought the whole thing was about D'Amato and his partner Camille taking problem kids off the streets and trying to " better " them. So when they failed miserably I can't see him being devastated at all. More resigned to them failing, if anything.
I just read in Mike's autobiography that its from a feature done by a boxing commentator by the name of Alex Wallau.
Yes you're right. Haven't read the autobiography yet but am planning to get it soon. Is it a good read?
