  That was a heart felt deep and painful excursion of Teddy&apos;s life. His sincerity was palpable.

  &quot;The benefit of being betrayed again.... You can learn to forgive weakness.... When you realize how easy it is to be weak.&quot;<br>Teddy Atlas<br><br>There&apos;s so much depth and yet so many simply realities to that statement, that it&apos;s almost profound in its own right to be able to understand it, let alone to be able to feel it fully. Hits hard.

  The thing that really stands out is how emotional both Teddy and tyson get when talking and remembering about cus, &nbsp;the impact that man had to those closest to him seems remarkable, &nbsp;for any faults he had or was perceived to have had its clear people loved and respected him dearly and still do. &nbsp;Very powerful

  Respect to Teddy Atlas for figuring himself out and gaining so much wisdom from his life experiences. &nbsp;<br>I hope that someday I can gain just a fraction of what’s he has earned.

  best interview you ever had in my opinion <br>Mr Atlas is a man with qualities that very few poses this days, this is what is called being a man <br>genuine to a point that is hard to believe, he took us to those deep dark places that we are hiding from because most of us are not brave enough to admit and accept our wrongs

  So glad I happened to run across this video and took the time to view it. Lex allowing Teddy to speak without interruption and Teddy not holding back his thoughts and feelings on the different angles of his experience as a coach, but more importantly as a human being. Thank you both for this high quality interview that afterwards left me thinking about more than just boxing. 👍

  Mr Atlas has learned from his life experiences, a depth not many achieve. This has got to be one a the greatest interviews ever given. How genuine.
