    As strong and ferocious as MIke was, he was like a humble little child in the presence of Cus DAmato, understanding that with age is wisdom, never be so arrogant as to ignore "learning" you will cheat yourself out of a lifetime of experience. With age, you become wiser & begin to comprehend what Cus was trying to explain to him in his younger years, even after all this time has passed, Mike tears up when reminiscing about his father figure.

      Let em know Rich! I've always said Iron Mike is by far the greatest to ever lace up a pair. No other fighter in history comes close to the Cus D'Amato, Kevin Rooney, trained Tyson! He's a grandmaster of hand-to-hand combat. A force of nature. And also a deep thinker. A man of the people. Yes, Ray Robinson can also share the pinnacle, but heavyweight champion is the greatest achievement and prize...

    Cus promised Mike Tyson if he did what he said he'd make him champion of the world and then he said he would stay alive till it happened. What is often not understood is this was not the goal. He carried Mike to the mountain top and then left him there to learn what it means to be king of the mountain. This broke Mike again but Cus knew Mike now possessed the ability to rebuild himself and Mike has done so. He may still be falable, as we all are, but Mike Tyson holds knowledge and insight most ppl could only dream of. Cus and Mike truly is a combination of two great life stories combining to make something even greater, a lesson for humanity itself. Their story is one for the generations imho

      ​@@themegaislandman true, because Mike was a shorter heavyweight the pikaboo style was the most appropriate but that requires alot of footwork and head movement to get on the inside of bigger guys and hit and not get hit. once he lost that he became a easier target.
