#406 – Teddy Atlas: Mike Tyson, Cus D’Amato, Boxing, Loyalty, Fear & Greatness

Yeah, he's emotional. I get emotional a little bit, too. But he's emotional, and he can be... I can see why people have a fascination and a love affair with him right now. Because he was... Because, you know, he was the meteor that went across the sky. If they didn't see it, their parents told them about it. There was a meteor that came across the sky one day.

And the meteor's walking around in the room now. And that's the meteorite. And it actually landed here. And that's it right there. And now he's come a long way. And now he's more human. And he's lovable and compassionate. And he cries. And I get the fascination. I get the love affair. I get it. Because inherently, we're people that want to forgive. We're people that... We want to be good.

And part of being good is to forgive people and to show compassion to people. And when somebody's been damaged, to acknowledge they've been damaged, to acknowledge that you know they've been damaged and you care about them being damaged. And how do you show care? Through admiration. you know, in some ways, almost through adulation.
