PlusTyson was never going to be quite the same after 3 years in prison. He did lose something in there too. I think he beats Holyfield pre prison. He admitted he simply didn't train for Douglas. Ego can take over, he took it on the chin, literally.
I have to watch the whole thing Sunday looks pretty interesting. Teddy at the beginning sounds like any random stoner who forgot the tv was on and starts talking about the awesome patterns on the new carpet. Teddy don't care. I've always found him a wear it on your sleeve kinda guy and his carpet bombing of boxings BS after the result of Augustus v Burton belongs in a time capsule! He slags on Tyson hard but he was there and can come off as disappointment or frustration with self in a way.
Teddy is a dick makeing threats to fighters with a gun got to be a asshole.
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.

That post, it's like a car....you gotta put the gas in it and make sure it's runnin' clean! And this other post over here is like a diesel truck, it may start out slow, but once it gets going you betta watch out. Now Joe! I'm tellin', you, I'm tellin' you it's gonna be a race and when the checkered flag is waved one of these vehicles is gonna be the winner.....
Was only going to watch the first few minutes and ended up running through it.
Solid interview. I like how Joe just let Teddy talk and didn't try to interrupt too much, or try plugging the the UFC in everywhere. Not that i mind the UFC, but to a boxing die hard like Teddy it would have felt forced.
Agree on him always being harsh on Tyson, but give him props for sort of admitting it. He's like that with Pac too, probably because of his history with Roach.
Although his stories were amazing, some of them felt more than a little exaggerated. Anyone else get that vibe?
Also, it was funny when Joe brought up the Bradley - Pac robbery, then quickly brushed it off.
