    Teddy also claims he makes **** smell bad.

    People tend to agree.

    How could Cus be the ruin of Tyson when Tyson was already a troubled kid from the streets. Cus took him into his own family, showed him love, and taught him discipline and manners. When Cus was gone, Tyson didn't have anyone like Cus to guide him, and besides Tyson was soon an adult so he was responsible for his own actions. What more could have Cus done? Money, fame, and Don King definitely didn't help Mike become a better person.

    Tyson had the punch and speed.He was young enough where Cus could have at least A LITTLE BIT taught him about life and the rules of life.But he didn't.Funny thing is he had to have known he wasn't going to be around forever and you would think he would have wanted to teach Mike about life so when he wasn't around Mike would at least have a chance.But he CHOSE not to.

    LOL

    Blame Cus for the troubles of street thug that was from a broken home in a bad neighborhood.

    Fact is Tyson was a troubled teen before Cus, while far from perfect he was better off while with Cus and became self destructive again after Cus.

    Yea - blame the dude that helped him get away from hell hole he was FROM and gave him the opportunity to earn millions and get some self respect.

    Tyson is a ****ing adult.

    Stop ****ing blaming others for his problem. He does not blame Cus you should not either.

    ****, without Cus he would be dead in an alley by the time he was 19 years old.

    Dumb liberals again blaming others for the action of an adult.

    second guess everything but teddy might not have had mike around for a month if he didnt know how to handle him and he have ended up in jail before even getting started. tyson was ruined by yes men after he won the title....2 years with cus is hardly an excuse for **** he did when he was 30 years old

    If not for Cus, Tyson would've been dead in the early 80s IMO, Teddy is just a bitter POS who flaunts his opinions as facts.
