They’d fight each other over who Cus loved the most. Teddy keeps talking about his relative but that’s the _real_ reason behind his hatred for Mike-that Cus chose Mike over him
Learning a strong mentality. I feel like this is something that is more significant in childhood. The most elite mentalities are crafted at a young age. The Spartans realised this and so did many other cultures. You can't train a boy like you'd physically train a fully grown male warrior but you can prepare his mind for it.
Like when he says sex takes as much energy as walking up a flight of stairs lol. Idk how lazy your sex is or how long the flight of stairs but in that case your doing one of them wrong
Also I just remembered I read that Cus D’Amato was interested in the work of Wilhelm Reich was which all about life force sexual energy - This is instilled in the metaphor about getting to the core of the person - only once you have removed the layers of pain will the life force be stronger - So much more than beliefs Teddy
Here is one I have never herd mention of LOW BLOOD SUGAR ! FIGHTERS should be tested right before a fight. You could be in the greatest shape of your life, walk into the ring and in 2 rounds you are gassed ! Athlete's are like race cars, the trainer should always test for blood sugar levels especially when an athlete is cutting weight.
I never thought about this and have fighters. Can you elaborate more on this science of nutrition and other factors i should look into as an athlete and coach,?
@@happylifegrace4674 My son is an athlete. He is a black belt in TAE KWON DO he has had many competitions in this sport some years back. His work effort was incredible 3 classes a day 7 days a week. This was Olympic. Tae Kwon. Do.I noticed early on he had hypoglycemia cause by his training for competition. Athletes burn a tremendous amount of calories training. Test my son after extreme training I discovered he had low blood sugar. He had a competition at Brown University, and he would have 6 matches that day. So in between matches I would give him a Yoo Hoo.I noticed at that competition he had incredible recovery between matches. I would also do this before his classes, I noticed gains in his work outs. Ahteletes that compete are like a high performance machine, and burn much more energy that a normal person. Try this with your fighters I guarantee you and your fighters will see improvements in their performance and endurance. I like yoo hoo it is lite and worked perfect.
I believe espn did a study on this if my memory services me correctly. But would love to watch you and iron Mike have a sit down and chat it up over cus and everything else as long as everyone is ok that
I was told when I was in the fight game years ago, that it was the PURSUIT of sex that made a fighter tired. Going out, carousing around, keeping late hours etc. Can't say if it was true or false; just what I was told.
Hey with the UFC heavyweight title fight this weekend, and Teddy being a friend of Francis Ngannou, I'd love to see Teddy do like a fight companion of his opponent Stipe. Maybe Stipe V Cormier 2? Great example of Stipes heart and ability to adjust mid fight
After reading that Mike Tyson book indeed why mike cries everytime he talks about cus .. he made you feel like you could be somebody ... imagine if these young men now a days had a mentor like cus what would they be
1:40 First off, sex is not "a simple act". The body and the brain are literally doing millions of different things simultaneously doing the act of intercourse so it's not a simple act as Teddy says. Also to answer his question about how what he calls a simple act can cause you to be fatigued is because once you reach climax or ejaculation (for the male) he expends most all of his white blood cells into the woman and the white blood cells are what the body uses to carry oxygen to the muscles. This is how a fighter will fatigue or possibly 'can' fatigue quicker than he normally would if he has a marathon sex bout the previous night or that morning. You get tired quicker whether you notice it or not because men expend/lose white blood cells when they climax. This is a physical takeaway; NOT an addition. What I have noticed though is that every female who ingests my sperm develops Wonder Woman-like abilities.
Hello Teddy I'm was a friend of yours I worked out with you and John Hurley was training and I was with my friend Tony you knew Tony Joey it was for a short time but I got to know you a little bit and I was interested Shannon Briggs was 21 years old at the time and he had a fight in Kentucky and you told me give me a phone number I'll let you know how he did he knocked out the guy in the first round and you call me back a a Allen he knocked him out in the first round you know it's a long time Teddy but I have a great great respect for you then I ultimately got married and I told my wife just guys the greatest guy of all time he became the best trainer all time I read into a Angelo Dundee in Florida had to leave New York with guys will look at a hurt me but whatever it was steady but I seen Angelo I ran into him in the store and I said Angelo you're a legend and he goes thank you very much I go I'm friendly with Teddy Atlas back in the day you know like 5 years ago and he's on his way up he goes Teddy Atlas is a great trainer a great trainer but Angela was very humble I used to go to his gym down to Florida but anyway I like to say hello to you I'm on Facebook my name is Allen you know me then my number is 954-329-4061you got the time you called me said hello I mean the world to me Teddy you are right now the best thing around in the boxing world is so lonely not the same hagler passes away boxing is not like it was 30 years ago boxing but I still love the sport and I love that you are like the commissioner and you tell it like it is steady your right on man so you have a great and blessed night and again I would like to say hello to you teddy that's it I thought the world of you then and I know I think the world of you now you're you're the greatest
You are The shining light of boxing your stories with coz what happened with Tyson and you and it seemed like Tyson regretted what he did but I'm sure he had all the respect for you to Teddy end it just a great guy I mean even when you had one fighter and 1990 I knew you were just a great guy and I'd like to say hello and I listen to you all the time now I just came on Facebook and I got an iPad and I just checked it out yesterday and I solely s*** I can listen to Teddy now and I never forget the fight with Michael Mora you said Michael just get away from him don't go in the middle of the ring stay away what does he do he comes right in the middle of the Ring big George Foreman hit some of the haymaker knocks him out he becomes the champ at 45 I caught that fight in Florida I couldn't believe it Michael was winning the whole fight anyway Teddy God bless you and your family
Just because one guy has sex before he fights and it doesn't effect him, doesn't mean now 99% of fighters can now have sex before fights and get the same results. That's like saying, I can eat all the candy of the world and not get diabetes so the same should apply to everyone else etc.
@@cptmaj Diets exist for a reason when a fighter trains for a fight he stays away from certain foods, he sometimes tells himself if I win ill treat myself to something nice if I win, The same can be said about women but I'm all about science if someone can show me a ratio of sex vs nonsex that would be interesting.
The not having sex before a fight probably helped fighters stay focused with the task at hand, and kept them from going out and trying to get laid the days before a big fight.
After I have sex, I do feel just a little bit lazier throughout the day. Definitely a little sleepy, and definitely more contented, a bit more docile). That's even if it was just a bj. I'm not a boxer, but I do feel more aggressive and motivated in general when I've been abstaining for a few days.
Got to disagree with Teddy here. If a fighter is consumed by his passions and messing around with harlots, the lust is going to darken his mind and erode his fighting spirit. That’s not to say a good lady in your life is a detriment, but if it’s some base fling with a broad of questionable morals yeah, your not operating at peak performance, that’s distraction! Teddy comes from a purely mechanical perspective on this, he’s right that sex doesn’t change things on a level of conditioning, but I’m talking about metaphysics here... The passions must be controlled and subdued by the warrior, not the other way around, boxing is war so prepare accordingly... WOMEN WEAKEN LEGS, simple as...
If a boxer had sex in the changing room just before the ring walk that would definitely affect performance in the boxing ring, you’d be depleted of energy for sure. But the night before is ok I’d say.
No it's a fact. Anyone who works a hard labor job, if they are honest, will tell you that 100% without a doubt, sex lowers every level of the things you need when it comes to fighting. You are definitely weaker. Listen man, I work outside everyday in the cold, in the heat, and after doing so for 20+ years now, you start to notice the days that you are on and the days you aren't. And the days I'm not, they all have one thing in common. Do not pop anything off inside of 24 hours. And to be honest, longer if you can. It is a true fact..hold it in my friends.
I feel that to much sex with affect a fighter not physically but mentally, as in make him softer, or weaker and my give up sooner or later when it gets tough late in a fight
I love your connection to boxing in the 50,s.The way you keep Cus,s memory alive.
I wish Teddy and Mike Tyson would do an episode together to talk about Cus together
Damn 💯
Kevin Rooney would be very cool too
They’d fight each other over who Cus loved the most. Teddy keeps talking about his relative but that’s the _real_ reason behind his hatred for Mike-that Cus chose Mike over him
Or Kevin Rooney........please Teddy, please, please.
Cus made that decision. Mike wasn't following the rules.
Learning a strong mentality. I feel like this is something that is more significant in childhood.

You can't train a boy like you'd physically train a fully grown male warrior but you can prepare his mind for it.
People may not always agree with Teddy but they all listen and respect what he says
Yer your right !

I wonder if he believes his own lectures.
Teddy Atlas you are the best sir. Thank you for all of your contributions to this sport and to my character.
fight tactics is my favorite part of the fight with Teddy Atlas
I love the stories from Teddy about Cus. I'm not a fighter but hearing Teddy's word makes feel better and stronger...thanks Teddy and God bless you
What a great story! As a big mma fan I love hearing about Cus along with the lessons and rich history of fighting. Great content!
Jake Demaggio Good shout!
Teddy you are a modern day wise man in a world of fools. Thank you.
Love your videos! Keep them coming, You’re a trues legend, years from now I will be talking about your lessons and stories.

I look forward to meeting you one day and shaking your hand and discussing the beauty of boxing. Thanks for everything
Mr. Atlas you are truly a gift. pure Americana. Thank you so much! You have helped me tremendously on my journey @thefight
I love the way teddy a pure boxing man sees the beauty in the mma sweet science of combat
I really thank you for putting out these videos.
Wasn't expecting this story after reading the title haha
True Legend...
Always enjoy hearing Teddy. Thanks for this.

Depends on the person I feel like some guys are more sensitive to it
As a former amateur boxer, the sex causing weakened legs and lowered aggression is true.
Cos unlike Teddy you're expending more energy than is needed to climb the stairs when you're on the job.
thank you Teddy

How true!!!! The power of the mind is good and bad.
Excellent
Love your story-like ways u share your experiences. No one is better

Strength of character and will
Can't wait to watch this
Thank you :)
That's so true

Like cus told Patterson, I just have to make you believe that you can be the youngest heavyweight champion
Love these keep it up.
It's definitely a real thing.
Logic and reason.
So wear blinders and earplugs when doing the nasty if in training. Great advice Teddy.
What is the outro song?
🙏CUS🥊
After reading that Mike Tyson book indeed why mike cries everytime he talks about cus .. he made you feel like you could be somebody ... imagine if these young men now a days had a mentor like cus what would they be
Wow. I needed this. Thank you
Just make the lady do all the work to save energy
The problem with that story is that a deaf person wouldn't get a license to box. As they can't hear the ref and the bell. I love you Teddy
Who is the framed picture of behind him? His father or Cus or someone else?
Mind over Matter
One more take Teddy I just remembered the fight was in Mississippi he knocked some guy out in the first round
Hi teddy, are you going to be in the new boxing game?
1:40
First off, sex is not "a simple act". The body and the brain are literally doing millions of different things simultaneously doing the act of intercourse so it's not a simple act as Teddy says.

You get tired quicker whether you notice it or not because men expend/lose white blood cells when they climax. This is a physical takeaway; NOT an addition.
What I have noticed though is that every female who ingests my sperm develops Wonder Woman-like abilities.
How many steps on that flight of stairs? 👀
Hello Teddy I'm was a friend of yours I worked out with you and John Hurley was training and I was with my friend Tony you knew Tony Joey it was for a short time but I got to know you a little bit and I was interested Shannon Briggs was 21 years old at the time and he had a fight in Kentucky and you told me give me a phone number I'll let you know how he did he knocked out the guy in the first round and you call me back a a Allen he knocked him out in the first round you know it's a long time Teddy but I have a great great respect for you then I ultimately got married and I told my wife just guys the greatest guy of all time he became the best trainer all time I read into a Angelo Dundee in Florida had to leave New York with guys will look at a hurt me but whatever it was steady but I seen Angelo I ran into him in the store and I said Angelo you're a legend and he goes thank you very much I go I'm friendly with Teddy Atlas back in the day you know like 5 years ago and he's on his way up he goes Teddy Atlas is a great trainer a great trainer but Angela was very humble I used to go to his gym down to Florida but anyway I like to say hello to you I'm on Facebook my name is Allen you know me then my number is 954-329-4061you got the time you called me said hello I mean the world to me Teddy you are right now the best thing around in the boxing world is so lonely not the same hagler passes away boxing is not like it was 30 years ago boxing but I still love the sport and I love that you are like the commissioner and you tell it like it is steady your right on man so you have a great and blessed night and again I would like to say hello to you teddy that's it I thought the world of you then and I know I think the world of you now you're you're the greatest

Sure its not 100 percent scientific but its much more scientific than a myth that does not seem to make sense.

I prefer avoiding sex because it is like the drugs . I live without sex and it is better .

You aint fucking right if its easier to walk up some stairs

Who are the 8 people that downvoted? Explain yourselves.

Sexual Energy in Eastern Mysticism. Look into it Teddy Bear.
If a boxer had sex in the changing room just before the ring walk that would definitely affect performance in the boxing ring, you’d be depleted of energy for sure.
But the night before is ok I’d say.
Thats cap you know how much blood it takes to create semen it also gives you spiritual power
So teddy puts as much effort into his sex life as he does walking up stairs 😂
When I don't have sex I am angry.
No it's a fact.
Anyone who works a hard labor job, if they are honest, will tell you that 100% without a doubt, sex lowers every level of the things you need when it comes to fighting.
You are definitely weaker.
Listen man, I work outside everyday in the cold, in the heat, and after doing so for 20+ years now, you start to notice the days that you are on and the days you aren't.

Hes Jealous of Tyson
Still cant believe you had loma vs Lopez a draw smh teddy a bias fanboy
Well who were those 2 fighters? Seems to me they didn't became successful/famous, because they had sex before their fights
I prefer avoiding sex because it is like the drugs. I am better without sex !
Women weakens legs
I feel that to much sex with affect a fighter not physically but mentally, as in make him softer, or weaker and my give up sooner or later when it gets tough late in a fight
