@@Thelategreatjohnnybratton my apologies for the mix up on the age. But cus was about the age Teddy is now when he met Mike and felt like he didn’t have enough time
I remember the 007 back in the day. I’m from Harlem, and a lot of guys carried that 007 which was a folding knife, and not a switchblade. And like Teddy said, you were flick it open, and there was a technique to it in fact, me and my cousin from Brooklyn always practice flicking that 007 open. So what Teddy said it was all about the flick of the wrist. It was a big knife too, and had a rawhide string attached to it. A lot of New Yorkers carried the 007 back in the days. We talking back in the 70s and 80s.
This a deep story, you can tell Teddy is trying to think about what to say, how much to share, and fight back the emotions of a very sad and disturbing time in his life.
It wasn't a very sad and disturbing moment in his life, for a civilian ? Sure. But he was a street kid who grew up in the ghetto, just one of them things, 🤷♂️
Bro could turn a yes or no question into an entire eight part series each series containing ten volumes, with six, 19 hour long episodes per volume with four, thirty-minute ad breaks in each episode
Teddy got embarrassed Really rushing at a guy after he pulled his knife out he belongs up on the hill With his daddy 7:29 He admits that he had a back up plan oh I’m gonna rush this guy and then order my specialty doctor
That bothered him to speak about the revenge attempt. At that moment u realize Atlas is anything but soft, and it bothered him to function like an emotionless monster, but it also hurt to call-off the revenge due to him having a heart (w/kids being present).
He was a pro boxer himself but cus wanted him to commit to being a trainer instead. After the Tyson incident, cus sided w teddy and they parted ways. Of course teddy atlas isn’t soft 😂😂😂 he’s a professional that’s been training killers for 5 decades.
Stapleton is a rough area, I know it very well. For those who may not know, it is also where some of the Wu is from. It was as rough an area as any in the 5 boros.
@@stephendavies-hale6348 Back in the day Tony was around there, there was the RED DOOR and lots of other craziness lol. Definitely not the part of town you wanted to be in if you were unfamiliar. But if you were good there, you had some solid backup.
This is why you need to be careful with road rage! I’m particular with who I get angry at when driving…usually stick to women, senior citizens or someone who’s noticeably disabled. So if it kicks off I got a chance!!
For sure 2 separate road rage incidents ended in shootings where I’m from and still live within the last couple months and it’s a small city of about 300,000 people in Indiana.. Fort Wayne
Wow! All the boxing fans are clicking on this one. He didn't even give this much detail in his book. Great storyteller. He started off a little rough though, lots of pauses. I can't wait to hear the rest.
I can appreciate Teddy for the most part but my God he takes longer than anyone in the world to get to the freaking point! He acts like every thing he says has to be the most profound jewel of wisdom like bro just spit it out!
A lot of folks don't realize why Atlas often takes a long time to get to the point? It's because that things would get taken outta context and misunderstood!, therefore he takes his time and builds a clear picture (nothing wrong w with this).
Like others have said. You can tell obviously this story. Was a huge deal in Teddys life. Maybe it brings some anger. That he’s tried putting behind him. At the end of the day though. We’re all men out here in this world. If someone slashes your face like that. I’d imagine apart of you. Would want to pay that back to the guy with the knife. My 6th grade Middle School yeaar. I remember getting a black eye in a fight. The kid had gotten the better of me. For days weeks months after that. I would go back to that moment. And feel rage in my mind. So so much built up anger. I learned a black eye isn’t so bad and, to move on. Obviously a deep cut on your face hits different. If you can understand what I’m saying here.
I understand exactly what you are talking about.Somebody hit me with a baseball bat 3 years ago.I think about revenge EVERY day! It is driving me insane!
So wait, Vlad isn’t even present for some of these interviews lol sounds like its cleaned up, as if he rerecorded his questions and used that audio as opposed to the audio captured from the screen/facetime. Or perhaps he’s using an audio interface to capture the audio on his end and submits it to his editors. Interesting.
Yeah I could hear was Skype or voice call also. They didn’t prep Teddy to look at the zoom call. If Vlad is going to do these remotely he needs to prep the guest. But still lame and not personable and not respectful. Damn would t you want to meet these people?
@@hoopslaa5235 lol I think you may have only noticed because Teddy stated it (seemingly annoyed by the fact as well), but many of his interviews are done remotely.
Know Dr. Atlas well. I'm from Staten island my whole life and went to see Dr. Atlas a few times and was my mother in laws regular doctor. Very nice doc.
I would have loved for Vlad to try this slice shit when he interviewed Mike. Baselessly insinuating and asking if his mentor and adoptive father was gay because he chose to dedicate his life to boxing and building champions. Everyone who doesn't have kids isn't gay. Disrespecting a man from an era where you know dam well he wouldn't have been ok with that life style.
The guy can’t talk, but they pay him to be a boxing commentator! Takes him 15 minutes to express a thought that should take15 seconds and still we’re not fully understood what he tries to say!😂🙄
@@V8Deuce no. No matter what shoes I walk in, I don't take a half hour to tell a 2-minute story. And by the way, I've had guns and knives pulled on me too smart guy.
Teddy does like to talk in circles and talk too much. Most people could say in a couple of sentences that takes Teddy many paragraphs. But I love the guy. Old school. The right school
The Bronx is the greenest borough Teddy. We have the largest park in the city and are the borough with the most parks.. staten island is the “whitest” borough
Have you tried eating edible mushrooms everyday with your food? Mushrooms are brain food, and can help heal brain issues. Magic mushrooms have been shown to help with CTE, but they get you high, and you might not want that Try out different edible mushrooms, and every 3 months go to your doctor to see if any changes happen
Doesn’t everyone already know?!? Not a secret anymore. But bad Vlad decision though. Not being there Teddy doesn’t have the interaction and presence so he’s stumbling. Teddys other interviews face to face he’s more present and focused. The lack of interaction got him tripping
Vlad has the uncanny ability to get people to talk whether he physically present, or, not. What he got some kind of mind altering machine in the cameras or suntin? It’s always, “I never told this story before” 😂
Teddy fighting back some deep seeded emotions here.
That scar is a big thing in his life, you can tell
I felt the same.. u can tell he still mad about it
Shit I would too..400 stitches is crazy!
Where can we watch the full interview
I think he looks really cool with it, but it must have been a painful, hellish experience. All love to Teddy for keeping it real
Getting the feeling that theres gonna be a whooole lotta editing 💨 for this interview!
Begs the question of whether the face butchers crew or relatives might take umbridge.
Love this guy.. his knowledge of boxing and how it ties into life is second to none.
He’s full of illustrative metaphors and simile in his descriptions of boxing and it’s relation to human life

Teddy tells a powerful story. And is still sharp for his age
He's 67 not 87 lol.
what are you 12 years old? He’s actually thinking before he speaks. That’s what adults do

Atlas always calls out robberies in boxing. Calls out corrupt judges who slowly killing the sport over the years
And calls out fights that weren't robberies and crys about them.
And lost his job over it. Respect.
I'd bet my house that by the time this whole thing comes out, it'll end up being a 5hr interview😂😂
Damn Vlad. This could be EPIC. You get the goats sir. This dude got stories on top of stories
I can't believe the disrespect from Vlad to not even interview teddy atlas in person...I can see why Tyson wants to knock Vlad out
Probably scheduling conflict
So put the interview off until they both match schedules @reginaldroundtree1325
You know he felt disrespected with that slight jab "you're not in it but..."

CTE can only be diagnosed after death.
TBI might be what you have.
So...... did he go and try to catch the guy on another day?????

You guys better not skip the (topic) Foreman fight.
Oh no another Keefer dee situation telling in himself thanks vlad l😂😂
A lot of cuts in this short clip vlad. Something seemed off
Atlas can talk for days, this story was probably 30 min long
Teddy is not to be messed with 💯 even spend time on Rikers
Honestly, that scars bad ass
Had never heard the story about him finding the dude who slashed him
Cant wait for his story of him knowing Sammy the Bull back in the day.. i think Sammy used to train in his gym, he spoke on it in a documentary
Clips from this interview is gonna laat till 2050
Damn uncle Charlie from the gap band was wild ass hell lol😂😂😂
I wonder how much of teddy’s 20 minute rambles for each basic question had to be cut out.
