N.Richardson said he wanted to punch Margarito's trainer in the mouth!!......

What Torres wrote hapened when Mike was still a teen, when D'Amato was alive ( he passed away before Mike won the title at 17).
D'Amato even predicted women would be Tyson's downfall.
How right was he.

 

Not trying either to defend Atlas for everything he did.

I remember Lalonde mentioning how Atlas berated him for not giving enough in training, when in fact Lalonde's shoulder was the problem. This should have been adressed by him, and i believe to this day Atlas still doesn't own to the facts.

But i expected better from Richardson? than this old gun story.

 

I believe protecting your loved one's is more important than showing how tough you are.
But i might be wrong.

No one is trying to defend Teddy's words. It's just that Richardson showed poor judgement himself in his response.

That might be true.

That's exactly what should have hapened.
As Tyson already had runins with the law, another conviction would have put him behind bars for some time.
D'Amato and Cayton wouldn't allow the golden goose to flee, so they paid $$ to who mattered and pulled all the stops until Mike became a star; that meant Sacking Atlas who had objected to Mike's preferential treatment; Atlas knew Mike needed somebody to teach him how a man should behave not only IN the ring, but OUTSIDE of it too.

Tyson's trainers only cared about the athlete, not the person.
Look how Mike's personal life has turned out and tell me who was right between d'Amato and Teddy...

 

I bet the powers that be find a way to 'soften' the allegations. Money talks
