An interesting interview on many levels, but the audio was occasionally a bit variable, loud, Loud, LOUD, quiet, quieter, mumble, mumble. Overall, great insights into the fight world from many angles. And by the way Patrick, Conor McGregor should be shamed out of the sport for his savage behavior, and locked behind bars, I'm surprised you let that slide by when discussing character. He had been a great fighter, but that doesn't excuse his brutality.
Teddy, the way you just honored your great Father made me cry and I'm 83 years old! He may not have told you what you you wanted to hear, but he gave you what you needed to have, CHARACTER! And it looks like it stuck! I salute you and your Father! Love, David
@@scottsecker8657 yeah you sure apperciate your love ones after they are gone but also there is dark side that shows you that they couldn’t discuss there problem and your problems. May be because didn’t had the energy to do it or they were in to much of their own mess to say “ I love you come see me when you have problems.
He must feel guilty - he ended up sounding like a mob boss's son - despite his father working flat our to raise him right, he fell short - he let his father down - he'll die with that guilt.
I looked down at your comment at the exact same time Teddy said it 😂 And thats after I paused the video and at the exact moment I clicked the video again, Teddy said what you quoted and I was reading it word for word in your comment simultaneously. Kinda wild lol Im taking it as a sign. God is speaking to me with this one.
I’m 40, never met Teddy Atlas but I been taking Atlas’s advice since I was 15 years old. Just by watching and listening to him from his days at espn Friday nights fights etc etc He has a way of really making you understand things. He opens your eyes up.
@@dboutte36 maybe you are correct in your observation, however I too was an arrogant,self serving, dirtbag but I have slowly changed my ways. I didn't do it on my own, 🙏
Sean Lennon same here. But teddy often does interviews... this isn’t his first or last. You’ll see how arrogant he is in other interviews/podcasts/press conferences/sporting events if you look it up. Teddy is well known in the sport of boxing for a reason. These boxing guys thrive on ego
Imafter this interview I'm even more grateful of the fact that EVERYTIME I see my dad he always greets me and says bye with a long hug, a kiss on the cheek, an I love you and a God bless you....every single time.
I’m almost speechless but I’ll try my best. Mr Patrick Bet-David, I’ve been a huge fan and binge-listener since first finding you on TH-cam. But I never thought the most riveting, most educational interview would be one centered around a sport I have zero interest in. You and Teddy Atlas, two incredibly inspiring men.
My dad was the most powerful, wonderful, amazing person I ever met. I miss him more than words can say. I understand how Teddy feels doing his best to hold back the tears while speaking about his interactions with his dad..#RIP
I knew Teddy had a message I knew it, the tone of his voice, the words he uses, his conversational style, he has lived a tough life seen unique situations and he has absorbed everything and used it as a survival tool and he is sharing, so wise so powerful!!
This guy is a real role model.. motivational great trainer and seems like a great guy. Probably one of the most honest men in boxing tells it like it is and isn't afraid to call out bad decisions.
@@russelniggemyer4788 people make mistakes the guy seems like he came a long way. His message about what it means to be a man are good. He came along way and thats his story u can learn from it i think he has and moved in a positive direction.
I fucking love teddy. He can come across to some folks as maybe he's not all there if he's super amped up. But when he's deliberate in his words, and speaking from his heart, they can be profound. The way he tells his life experiences and the way he motivates, gives me chills. Absolute legend, I hope hes around a long while longer and in good health
I met teddy in person the other day , he was with his grandson and he sat there and talked to me for 10 min in a parking lot like a champion , so much respect for him great guy in person.
Man I got major respect for Patrick he gets great guests, he's so well rounded with his knowledge & interview skills. SALUTE Brother!!! Best channel on TH-cam hands down
I dont know I think he could've done better with the Greg kading interview. Theres alot of questions and people involved in the 2pac and biggie murders that he didnt ask about
This was hands down one of my favorite ones you’ve ever done, I related so well being middle eastern and the trouble I face with my dad! Thank you Patrick!
My dad told me in my mid fifty’s, out of the blue.. over the phone.. he loved me, and it freaked the f out of me and still affects me. I never expected to hear those words. Feels good to know it’s not uncommon.
Ron Dean I’m 20 and need those words. It’s very common, and it’s sad. Some people just aren’t communicative or willing to show affection, it’s bizarre.
One of the best interviews by Patrick ever, if not the best. I've never seen him that silent and attentive while his guests is talking. Of course the fact that Teddy is the guest helps a lot, such a wise guy
Cus & Mike was like the real life Micky & Rocky. It's amazing to see how guys like Teddy & Cus can raise young kids out of almost certain doom on to world renowned icon status. Great interview!
I've watched a few of his interviews. I have the upmost respect for this man. He tells it how it is! old school, a real tough guy. I have been fighting since I was a child. I wish I had a motivator like him to help me down a more positive path. I used my anger and natural talent to hurt people. There are many others out there with the same story. We need more role models like him in this world.
Best interview I have ever watched. How refreshing to hear a man speak from his heart and be totally honest about it.Evander was the real deal in the ring and teddy is The Real Deal out of it! Truth and total honesty is undeniable and the country needs more men like him! Riveting. Cannot believe I almost changed the channel when it began. Here's a man to admire and respect. Thank you teddy for stepping up to the plate and teaching us the true meaning of character!
Watched from the beginning to the end and every moment was magnetic. My take home point is that every man yearns for the love and attention of their dad. Awesome content.
This was an amazing interview . Really enjoyed listening to this one. You can clearly see he doesnt need to act like the big tough guy to prove a point, Teddy has a true heart felt story , I respect that .
Man, thank you so much for this interview. This is Teddy opening his heart and sharing his wisdom with us, and Patrick was the perfect person to sit across the table for this. Thank you.
Teddy Atlas should be president. Not joking. Highest character possible. Could never be compromised and despite his unique way of speaking he is clearly smart
Out of all the really great interviews on Valuetainment, this was the one I valued the most. What a remarkable guy! The stories about his father were incredible. He wears his life on his shoulder. During one point in the beginning of the interview, when Teddy was telling the story about wanting to get closer to his father and he got injured from the knife fight, it was heartbreaking. Just an all around great interview. I will say this, professional boxing needs a valid fair uncompromising Commissioner, just like all the other professional sports, to get rid of the fixing of fights and the corruption. Period!

My biggest influence from teddy (not in this interview)... is when he talks about being the guy that jumps to see if the coast is clear, not the one that waits to be told, hey it's ok come on over! I 'jumped' and moved to Australia and now live by the ocean in the sunshine. I'm not the guy who goes to see if the coast is clear in general, but I was this time and its the best thing I've ever done. Thank you for giving me a little courage from time to time teddy! You da main man!! What a fantastic interview guys. Bless you.
Years ago i ran into teddy in the projects on staten island..this man was walking freely unconcerned about danger...i was lucky to get a pic with him👍🏾
The fact that Sir Bet-David knows what's going on with the UFC floors me, in a good way. I've been watching Valuetainment the past week and as a fight fan this interview has made me a SUSCRIBER. A lot can be learned from the fight game, thank you.
Great interview , his outlook on his father and how he passed reminds me of my own father a lot and it was helpful to hear someone I respect talk about going through something similar. I love this channel.
It's so true. Nowhere to hide. If you've been slacking during training, it'll show. Fear, courage, happiness, anxiety, so many emotions and everyone can see. Great quote.
Damn this was better than anything I've paid to watch. Teddy is a real gangster. The man is an inspiration and a good example of what it means to be a MAN. Such a nice change of pace compared to the gangster glorifing b.s., media keeps pushing lately.
What a beautiful, loving, caring & passionate man - a man who comes from the world of boxing, that parents of sons say destroy their kids, enemies take them for all they can & rub their nose in the things left behind... and this man, tells you why the world of boxing, lived as it has been living for 200 yrs. has carried on, blemishes or not, carried forth by the souls of men called Teddy Atlas! He had me crying several times as he let go his passion to explain his comments & describe reasons behind them, and no false pride to show a way out of it. What a gentle MAN!! It's people like this that are going to keep an active role in bringing the lost kids up out of the slums and teaching them the good old fashion dictionary of plain, common words as seen through the beings of real people who have wanted and felt lost themselves. He never suffered, technically - but, to listen to him tell his own personal story in HIS way, you felt his suffering down to his toes. I cried... though, smiling at his simple ways of telling the real truths. It makes you wish he could be made into a serum to be taken 4xdaily, but only if you are trying to achieve, face your fears and live honestly. What a body language this man has - and it's not lying!! His eyes are telling you the very same story. Those pleading eyes are staring directly into yours as if to beg you to please listen to the message I'm sending you. I could have listened to him all day long. What a passionate man. He is 100% Passion - as he shares, talks ... and even the way he feels & thinks. What I would have given to have had him be my "healing whisperer" (you know what I mean). I'd have let him ride in my ear all my life, I do believe. Such a wise man. He judges things as he sees them, but I don't think he sees the same stuff I do when he "views" something; he sees a translation. He sees something that I didn't even see in the picture. It began when he started talking about the picture filled with your mentors (heroes who inspired you). He picked up on that immediately. He also got stuck on the same two men I did (I still don't remember the one guys name, in white). I never once felt he said a negative thing about Tyson... I heard him speak of Tyson's short comings, being a bully, etc. He speaks the truths and Tyson tells the same story in his sit-down with you. Tyson finally found his WILL when his skills brought him down. Tyson tells us that, as well. Tyson had to take a hard road around until the will appeared at the time he needed it to. Tyson is now quite a gentleman from what he originally was although few would describe him with the same words - but they DO apply to him, especially from where he came from. THAT is all Teddy was saying about him, as he was talking about Cus letting him slip thru the cracks. Teddy called it right. He and Tyson both have a way of getting their points across in a manner I'm still trying to untangle -- it's just magical, and it only deepens my belief that boxing is a necessary one-on-one sport that must be left as it has been for 200yrs. One man learning, and one man training as a mentor, hugging and talking them thru this thing called life which does appear when you least expect it and not always at the best time. Their real soul is birthed but, only slightly tolerable as they tell the story in a language only the two understand completely. It quietly reminded me of "Karate Kid" - portrayed by Pat Morita. My fatherinlaw tells me Pat's story is quite passionate, as well (friends for years in HA)
It's not about his life in boxing it's his life that is amazing and the way he's lived it and his outcome and perception of it that the modern generation is missing... a real man with faults growing up but learned from them and become a philosopher with all the values, LOYALTY, and understanding of people that the modern day generations are missing x
I think alot more men then you would ever imagine can identify with the feelings teddy was talking about when it came to the relationship he had with his father. Fighters deal with self reflection everyday,you thought 5 miles at 4 am was tough enough .Most people can deal with really truly look in the mirror once a month.Teddy is one those guys that takes you to places mentally you didn't know existed before. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to understand what he says and what he means.Hes insightful,thought provoking,he cant avoid reflecting when listening to him,much respect from strong isl ny .
Love Mr. Atlas, he’s my imaginary trainer in life... I find myself being motivated by hem during hardships and adversities. I can here em in my ear as if I’m in a corner sitting on a stool in between rounds of my life. And for that, no matter how hard it gets I answer the bell 🔔 for the next round or next day.
How does this interview not have millions of views?! Out of all of Patrick’s interviews over the years none of them gripped me like this one. By far my favorite. Wow. The biggest baddest most impactful people sometimes go unheard. I bet his book is awesome. How come out of all the Mike Tyson interviews he never mentions this guy but always Cas. 🤔Sounds like Teddy was the guy who actually put the work in and was/is more influential than ever given credit. Forget all the self professed “tuff guys” this guy is a real one. Honest and humble. IMO
Amazing man. Great job Patrick ... The best interviewers know how to listen, and I've been critical of Patrick about continually interrupting. He didn't do it with Sammie and he didn't do it here, so my guess is he's been reading the comments and made the necessary adjustments. Really enjoyed this one, look at Ted differently after it.
It seems so simple to just sit an listen but its not i struggle so much to just sit n listen without seemin to stare at the person sounds creepy but i cant help it wish i didnt do it though it does my head in ...
I have ALWAYS been a big fan of Teddy Atlas, You can tell hes a fearless, straight talking, principled man, NOT Enough people in the world like this in my humble opinion! When he speaks, ANYONE with sense listens! Even if they dont agree!!! Most Underrated trainer in boxing, fantastic at the mental aspects and their importance in the ring and in life! Thank you Sincerely Mr Patrick Bet-David.
I have been watching this guy's interview the last few days and love the way he interviews people. Watch the Carlos Mencia one and he constantly calls out Mencia and does not let him off the hook. Guy does his homework on interviews.
teddy is a great man, i could listen to him for hours, this is probably the best interview ive heard with teddy,amazing work patrick, keep up the good work brother
Watching from Ireland, great stuff, enjoyed hearing teddy atlas, all ways thought he might have an Irish heritage, he sounds and looks like many Irish men ,full of passion and honestly.. Keep it up,top darw.. Robert Paul from bray Ireland..
The boxing world, mostly boxers and trainers and boxing fans included, could never get enough of Atlas' knowledge perspective, knowledge and history. I wasn't the biggest Atlas fan but this is gold. Thank you Patrick.
Great interview! A feel like our history is similar. My dad was a doctor back in the day that did what was required. I understand more than you know Mr. Atlas. Since his name was Colombo when there was an incident in Jersey his office became a makeshift surgery center that 's another moment in time. Thank you for sharing.
I hear you. New Jersey. Columbo. I've got Irish westies out that way in history and I think I know what you mean by a incident. Night call private consultation
After watching a lot of valuetainment interviews i have to say this is one of the best if not thee best, honesty runs through Teddy's vain's, just a great watch

An interesting interview on many levels, but the audio was occasionally a bit variable, loud, Loud, LOUD, quiet, quieter, mumble, mumble. Overall, great insights into the fight world from many angles. And by the way Patrick, Conor McGregor should be shamed out of the sport for his savage behavior, and locked behind bars, I'm surprised you let that slide by when discussing character. He had been a great fighter, but that doesn't excuse his brutality.

I'm not the guy who goes to see if the coast is clear in general, but I was this time and its the best thing I've ever done. Thank you for giving me a little courage from time to time teddy! You da main man!! What a fantastic interview guys. Bless you.
Years ago i ran into teddy in the projects on staten island..this man was walking freely unconcerned about danger...i was lucky to get a pic with him👍🏾
49:09 "He became a pro" Best part of the interview. Literally gets up to show how powerful that was
The fact that Sir Bet-David knows what's going on with the UFC floors me, in a good way. I've been watching Valuetainment the past week and as a fight fan this interview has made me a SUSCRIBER. A lot can be learned from the fight game, thank you.
SCheco3 Sir? WTF?! Hero worship much.
What a great, inspirational, & wise man. I'd have Mr. Atlas in my corner anytime!
Great interview , his outlook on his father and how he passed reminds me of my own father a lot and it was helpful to hear someone I respect talk about going through something similar. I love this channel.
GREAT INTERVIEW MR BET-DAVID!! NOTHING LIKE AN HONEST AND PERSONAL HEART FELT INTERVIEW. THANKS THEODORE A. ATLAS!
Great lessons to be learned here . Old time coaches and trainers were psychologists as well as leaders . A lot of this is missing today .
Probably your best interview yet Patrick ! Teddy is so damn passionate and authentic.
"The ring is the chamber of Truth" had to write that one down.
It's so true. Nowhere to hide. If you've been slacking during training, it'll show. Fear, courage, happiness, anxiety, so many emotions and everyone can see. Great quote.
Absolutely!
kinda like being naked
Teddy Atlas is a legend. Very charismatic guy with alot of heart too. I could listen to him nonstop.
Damn this was better than anything I've paid to watch. Teddy is a real gangster. The man is an inspiration and a good example of what it means to be a MAN. Such a nice change of pace compared to the gangster glorifing b.s., media keeps pushing lately.
It's really sad and emotional when he is talking about his dad, it resonates with me so much, with the relationship me and my father have/ have had..
It's a yr later and my father passed this year. Last thing I heard my father say is, "I'm proud of you son, I love you"
Patrick just let him go, there's an art to being able to get that much out of the interviewee
It's Called Listening..Thats It!
What a beautiful, loving, caring & passionate man - a man who comes from the world of boxing, that parents of sons say destroy their kids, enemies take them for all they can & rub their nose in the things left behind... and this man, tells you why the world of boxing, lived as it has been living for 200 yrs. has carried on, blemishes or not, carried forth by the souls of men called Teddy Atlas!
He had me crying several times as he let go his passion to explain his comments & describe reasons behind them, and no false pride to show a way out of it. What a gentle MAN!! It's people like this that are going to keep an active role in bringing the lost kids up out of the slums and teaching them the good old fashion dictionary of plain, common words as seen through the beings of real people who have wanted and felt lost themselves. He never suffered, technically - but, to listen to him tell his own personal story in HIS way, you felt his suffering down to his toes.
I cried... though, smiling at his simple ways of telling the real truths. It makes you wish he could be made into a serum to be taken 4xdaily, but only if you are trying to achieve, face your fears and live honestly. What a body language this man has - and it's not lying!! His eyes are telling you the very same story. Those pleading eyes are staring directly into yours as if to beg you to please listen to the message I'm sending you. I could have listened to him all day long. What a passionate man. He is 100% Passion - as he shares, talks ... and even the way he feels & thinks.
What I would have given to have had him be my "healing whisperer" (you know what I mean). I'd have let him ride in my ear all my life, I do believe. Such a wise man. He judges things as he sees them, but I don't think he sees the same stuff I do when he "views" something; he sees a translation. He sees something that I didn't even see in the picture. It began when he started talking about the picture filled with your mentors (heroes who inspired you). He picked up on that immediately. He also got stuck on the same two men I did (I still don't remember the one guys name, in white).
I never once felt he said a negative thing about Tyson... I heard him speak of Tyson's short comings, being a bully, etc. He speaks the truths and Tyson tells the same story in his sit-down with you. Tyson finally found his WILL when his skills brought him down. Tyson tells us that, as well. Tyson had to take a hard road around until the will appeared at the time he needed it to. Tyson is now quite a gentleman from what he originally was although few would describe him with the same words - but they DO apply to him, especially from where he came from. THAT is all Teddy was saying about him, as he was talking about Cus letting him slip thru the cracks. Teddy called it right. He and Tyson both have a way of getting their points across in a manner I'm still trying to untangle -- it's just magical, and it only deepens my belief that boxing is a necessary one-on-one sport that must be left as it has been for 200yrs. One man learning, and one man training as a mentor, hugging and talking them thru this thing called life which does appear when you least expect it and not always at the best time. Their real soul is birthed but, only slightly tolerable as they tell the story in a language only the two understand completely. It quietly reminded me of "Karate Kid" - portrayed by Pat Morita. My fatherinlaw tells me Pat's story is quite passionate, as well (friends for years in HA)
It's not about his life in boxing it's his life that is amazing and the way he's lived it and his outcome and perception of it that the modern generation is missing... a real man with faults growing up but learned from them and become a philosopher with all the values, LOYALTY, and understanding of people that the modern day generations are missing x
Gotta love boxing and gotta love Teddy , an iconic figure in boxing , could listen to him all day , so passionate and knowledgeable.
The dad story almost made me tear up
Davarion Johnson same 🙏
Almost lol
Nobody asked.
I laughed
Same...
These are the types of podcasts & videos that truly inspire the soul.
Thanks for the great guests and continuous content
What a great interview, I cried I laughed all emotions in one interview
Well said
@Viking system vikingfitness Too much tv drama.
You cried???
Great Interview in my opinion.. Teddy Atlas has a lot of Wisdom about life in my opinion.
I think alot more men then you would ever imagine can identify with the feelings teddy was talking about when it came to the relationship he had with his father. Fighters deal with self reflection everyday,you thought 5 miles at 4 am was tough enough .Most people can deal with really truly look in the mirror once a month.Teddy is one those guys that takes you to places mentally you didn't know existed before. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to understand what he says and what he means.Hes insightful,thought provoking,he cant avoid reflecting when listening to him,much respect from strong isl ny .
Teddy's the Man. Mad Respect. Integrity over sell out.
“Never... go against the family.” - Teddy Atlas
is from The Godfather movie.
I love the passion he puts into being the light to others simply because he’s felt similar emotions of lacking something. Great interview! I love it!
Right its cool, he wanted that support from his old man. In turn his been that rock for others. Teddy is alright in my book!
His father was a winner yet he still based his life on winning is everything just as his father. Was it in the genes?
Love Mr. Atlas, he’s my imaginary trainer in life... I find myself being motivated by hem during hardships and adversities. I can here em in my ear as if I’m in a corner sitting on a stool in between rounds of my life. And for that, no matter how hard it gets I answer the bell 🔔 for the next round or next day.
How does this interview not have millions of views?! Out of all of Patrick’s interviews over the years none of them gripped me like this one. By far my favorite. Wow. The biggest baddest most impactful people sometimes go unheard. I bet his book is awesome. How come out of all the Mike Tyson interviews he never mentions this guy but always Cas. 🤔Sounds like Teddy was the guy who actually put the work in and was/is more influential than ever given credit. Forget all the self professed “tuff guys” this guy is a real one. Honest and humble. IMO
Great interview..... I really admire Teddy Atlas and his father.
David, this is the BEST INTERVIEW you did so far IMHO. THANK YOU FOR A AN AMAZING CHANNEL
Amazing man. Great job Patrick ... The best interviewers know how to listen, and I've been critical of Patrick about continually interrupting. He didn't do it with Sammie and he didn't do it here, so my guess is he's been reading the comments and made the necessary adjustments. Really enjoyed this one, look at Ted differently after it.
TOPSPOT that’s what it’s all about! Learning, growing, and evolving! I agree 1,000%
Yea I agree he's getting it to a craft. Great interviewer
It seems so simple to just sit an listen but its not i struggle so much to just sit n listen without seemin to stare at the person sounds creepy but i cant help it wish i didnt do it though it does my head in ...
I have ALWAYS been a big fan of Teddy Atlas, You can tell hes a fearless, straight talking, principled man, NOT Enough people in the world like this in my humble opinion! When he speaks, ANYONE with sense listens! Even if they dont agree!!! Most Underrated trainer in boxing, fantastic at the mental aspects and their importance in the ring and in life! Thank you Sincerely Mr Patrick Bet-David.
I have been watching this guy's interview the last few days and love the way he interviews people. Watch the Carlos Mencia one and he constantly calls out Mencia and does not let him off the hook. Guy does his homework on interviews.
Hearing teddy's story about his father. What a good man he was. God Bless his soul. May he rest In peace.
I actually took “notes”.... valuable life lessons..
teddy is a great man, i could listen to him for hours, this is probably the best interview ive heard with teddy,amazing work patrick, keep up the good work brother
Watching from Ireland, great stuff, enjoyed hearing teddy atlas, all ways thought he might have an Irish heritage, he sounds and looks like many Irish men ,full of passion and honestly..
Keep it up,top darw..
Robert Paul from bray Ireland..
His mother was Irish his father was from Hungary
I’m so glad I watched this interview. I have a new understanding and appreciation for Teddy Atlas. Awesome interview, Patrick!
“You don’t have to be from the projects to....The realest line I ever heard
The boxing world, mostly boxers and trainers and boxing fans included, could never get enough of Atlas' knowledge perspective, knowledge and history. I wasn't the biggest Atlas fan but this is gold. Thank you Patrick.
Great interview!
A feel like our history is similar. My dad was a doctor back in the day that did what was required.
I understand more than you know Mr. Atlas.
Since his name was Colombo when there was an incident in Jersey his office became a makeshift surgery center that 's another moment in time.
Thank you for sharing.
Veritas Lux Mea god bless your father 🙏
I hear you. New Jersey. Columbo. I've got Irish westies out that way in history and I think I know what you mean by a incident. Night call private consultation
Amazing Conversation Patrick and Teddy ... Love it ... Shalom and Peace :-)
Probably my favorite Valuetainment interview. Patrick really clicked with Teddy, you could easily tell
I really proud as an Iranian that you painted Reza Pahlavi and proudly talk about it.
Love peace from Iran David ❤❤❤❤❤🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
One of the best interviews....I've ever seen. Fantastic!
Patrick’s best interview
Sammy never had the makings of a varsity athlete.
Small Hands, that was his problem
Nah, sammy did control NYC ...nothing got built or tore down without his approval
@@knarftrakiul3881 - It’s a Sopranos reference.
After watching a lot of valuetainment interviews i have to say this is one of the best if not thee best, honesty runs through Teddy's vain's, just a great watch
I LOVE TEDDY ATLAS HE COMES ACROSS AS A GENUINE PERSON !
