Far as I know that was only to Tyson, after the guy made a pass at his niece. It could have been a very serious thing, and how else would you confront the guy?

I thought Teddy's 30 minute monologue on Tyson was better than any biography you'll read. Terrific.

I didn't take the "0-5" stuff so literal, it was the usual "Tyson is a bully" stuff. Teddy was gushing about Tyson's boxing ability and thinks he "could" have been great, but is an underachiever, which he blames on whether or not Tyson always had a "coward streak," weak nature, or they (Cus and the like) failed in nurturing him.

He was aware people would call him overly harsh and biased, but reiterated it's his story and experience with Tyson.

His rape comments were interesting too. How many people defend Tyson to the hilt over the rape, yet things go on behind the scenes that we never get to know about. Nobody would defend a man with Tyson history/reputation if he wasn't a former superhero.
