They are forever intertwined. "When my fighter is in that ring, I'm also in that ring too." -Cus. He instilled 60 years of boxing knowledge into his ultimate physical specimen. People often say they are waiting for the next Mike Tyson. You can't have the next Mike without having a man like Cus, who imo was the best mind in boxing the sport ever produced. The style is not only entertaining, it's also beautiful to watch. It's not even an old school style to me. Cus took the technical side of boxing and improved it. It's actually an upgraded way to fight. "How dare they challenge me with their somewhat primitive skills, they're just as good as dead." - Mike Tyson.

Eternity passed when we talk about mike? XD you think in next 2 thousand years people will keep talking about him? Or in 5 thousand time? Youre dellusional. And to talk about eternity? 😆

@@kolarz2128 ok, you win, I lose.

@@st7728 for me it was never about winning, chill 😁

@@kolarz2128 you're right again, I'm out of control. Thanks for your concern Sir.

14:20 think how much that motivated tyson!! I didnt realize that Stallone put that quote in Rocky.

our society is too far gone. when drag queens strip dance in front of children in texas, you know its too late 😂

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

100%

Sadly the generation of those teachers is retiring. X has much fewer, and millineals? Unicorns

Great video, lots of great content

As mike said when he won the first belt Cus would be up there looking down saying his boy did it.

Similar to naruto and jiraiya

100% true

How do you know? We know barely anything before what's happened in the last 100 years. Who do you think Achilles was, or Cuchulain, or Attila the Hun?

@@jimnewcombe7584 Hi Jim. I'm referring to within a boxing context.

@@jamesgilgannon4164 my respect to you for answering this moron.

@@jimnewcombe7584 i seriously doubt any human pre-1800’s is beating prime mike tyson in hand to hand combat

Mike Tyson prime never fought any greats just journey men. It was later on in his career when he fought greats like Holyfield and Lewis. They had managed themselves alot smarter.

@@robertgreen9717 Journeymen? It's fair to say you know little about boxing. He fought seasoned pros and ex world champions, such as Trevor Berbick, James Smith, Tony Tucker, Tyrell Biggs, Larry Holmes, Tony Tubbs, Michael Spinks, Frank Bruno (ex-European champion), Carl Williams, Donovan Ruddock etc... Holmes was a bit passed it, but he went onto to give a prime Hollyfield a run for his money and one of his toughest fights.

@@robertgreen9717 "Journey men" lol Every one of those guys would of taken your head off.

@@robertgreen9717 Cus was far away from him at that time. How long your mentor teachings can last if he is no more with you to reinforce them daily? He stayed on his track pretty long. But other bad characters took the place of Cus in Mike's life. They were the "distractions" Cus was always talking about.

I agree.

you don't know ish about boxing😂

@@irishscience580 yup. You don’t.

That's a huge fact. He is the scariest man that ever lived from my perspective

Cocaine is a hell of a drug poor mike

Откуда ты?

You will! Stay focused, and believe!

@@tspks2128 thx bro

Are you doing good bro?

"It's the repetition of affirmations that leads to belief. And once the belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to happen." Muhammad Ali

I agree. In any other order, it would just be hype.

You are right, Mike Tyson is the best in history and you have a very beautiful opinion

I go by the greatest I've ever seen in the ring. Some people's criteria are title defenses, which is one of the reasons Joe Louis is often ranked #1. My criteria are how far the fighter reached the pinnacle of skill. For a brief moment in time 85'-88', I have never seen another fighter on the level that Tyson reached. You combine the greatest mind in boxing instructing his perfect physical specimen mentally and physically, it's no wonder Mike was such a devastating fighter. He not only had the physical gifts to get by on, he soaked up the mental gifts Cus gifted him to become one of the greatest or possibly the greatest we've ever seen. Tyson is like a cheat character in a video game. Power - 10 Speed - 10 Elusiveness - 10 I believe the more time that passes, the more revered he's going to be. In 100 years, I think most people will look back and unanimously consider Mike the greatest ever.

I agree too

Opinion

But good, beautiful and REAL things are kept unblemished, don't you agree?

And Considerable Aggression.

I actually think the Cus/Tyson story is better than anything Hollywood could ever come up with. Thank God we have such extensive footage. About the Rocky thing, it seems like some of it would have been inspired, but the first Rocky movie was in 76', the second in 79', Rocky III in 82'(Mick dies) and Rocky IV was 85'. The early Rocky movies were all pretty much before Tyson got with Cus, at least the first two were.

Rocky was realized in 1976, Mike AND cus history appers several years later. However in rocky5, when Rocky remember Micky talk about the fear AND the reason of love, un fact this chapter was obtained fron cus

Def Rocky 5. Micks speech but the first was born from Ali giving Chuck Wepner a shot at the title when he was basically a nobody

@@BigBoss-zi5ss yep and Chuck got lucky punch that knocked down Ali once I believe? The part when Rocky caught Apollo early in their first fight is the reference if so? Sorry, memory ain't what its use to be! Lol
