Great story. I love it. I need to get that athletic green.
Damn Teddy's looking 🔟 years younger within a week 😲
You're back together in the same room, great to see :)
Great story Mr. TEDDY ATLAS, as any ALI story is. This one was funny too, probably because it was Muhammad Ali
Great story. Love this podcast. #daily 🏆
More Teddy memories please...
XL Tee Good shout!
cus d'amato the king of boxing philosophy was friend with the GOAT Muhammad Ali ...whatta two legends
To think both was Capricorns
@@2AMpodcasts I have just searched that. .that's interesting.its true
@@wisammoealiboth also share the same birthday
@@stanceswitch6419 WOW that gets me wondering.
I’m so glad I found Teddy’s channel. He doesn’t realize it, but he’s one of the greatest trainers too. Cus D’amato was his mentor, but Teddy is still a thinking man, which means he has taken what he has learned and elevated it to the next level.
Love the Ali story. When I was a little boy and Leon Spinks beat Ali, I went to bed crying
I read Teddy Atlas autobiography many years ago and let me tell you I was not much of a reader back then but I read it Twice!!!! His life was fascinating to me the fact that he knew Cus and Tyson led me to want to find out who Teddy was.
I don’t think people realise how important and Valuable Teddy is to the Boxing World. #RESPECT
The guy Teddy was referring to at 2:50 was DICK Gregory the comedian and activist not Eddie Gregory. Teddy was still in fight mode as he was thinking about WBA lightheavyweight champion Eddie Gregory who later became Eddie Mustapha Muhammad and later on a top trainer.
Right I was like he got the last name right.
There's a video on RUclips with Ali 'shadow boxing' Cus. The mutual admiration is plain to see.
Cus popped Ali in the mouth during that. 😊
Teddy's Ali impersonation is hilarious! I am grateful for many things, being a huge boxing fan, I am grateful to have lived to witness Teddy's reign as one of the top trainers on the planet. It's good to see him in a more relaxed role.
He is talking about Dick Gregory & Ali
I met Dick Gregory at Ali's funeral. He was the crazy character you think he is! I bluffed my way into the friends-and-family private party and as and Englishman in a lovely white shirt, I suppose everybody thought I was with somebody! An amazing day. Rest in peace to both men: two giants.
Cool story! Just to have met Ali and to know that he spoke to you is an honor.
Dick Gregory was preparing Ali those juices in Philly on Girard Avenue. That was in 1976. He fought Norton in September of that year. The juice was nasty as hell! Lol!
Thank you so much Teddy. Lovely words for our Champ. We also love Cus D' Amato so much. Love for Angelo Dundee, kevin rooney. Legendary❤🎉
as a kid I wanted to meet Ali and Johnny Bench . They were like superheroes in the 70s
This story made me laugh and also brought a tear to my eye . Thanks teddy
😮 3 OF THE GREATEST MINDS IN BOXING HISTORY ❤❤❤.. R.I.P. Cus D'amato👑🙏🙇♂️ R.I.P. Ali👑🙏🙇♂️ & to many many more years Teddy Atlas 👑🙏
I had a dream I met Ali last night and I told him I loved him (platonically) and bawled my eyes out.
Thts some real shit
brilliant again guys, and thank you
Teddy please more Ali stories! I love them!! It seems that the moments people spent with Ali are forever etched in their memories and become unforgettable. Alis share his magical persona with people and makes them feel special
Always listen to teddy before a big fight as his knwledge is always spot on
legendary! thanks for sharing Mr. Atlas!
More stories from Teddy. We love you in Brooklyn ❤️
Gotta love when highly regarded members of the boxing community meet the true legends on the sport like Ali. Shows how humble they are, the love they have for the sport and basically their inner child.
I'm addicted to listening to you teddy you're so fascinating
It's always great to listen to atlas
That was Dick Gregory Eddie Gregory was a fighter who later became known as Eddie Mustafa Muhammad former WBA Lt Heavy Champ and fellow Muslim Brother
Its Dick Gregory Eddie Gregory is the original name of light heavyweight champ Mistufa Mohammed
Great video. Thank you for sharing.
Legendary trainer cus d'amato I seen him on RUclips with Ali in the advertisement fly like a butterfly sting like a bee honey honey honey it was a classic and so was Ali and cus d'amato one of the greatest trainer and Ali greatest in history. Cus d'amado who train the youngest HW title Floyd Patterson and it was sad that he dies just 1 years before Tyson got the Heavyweight title at age 20 I think cus d'amato wanted to see that but I know his spirit was there that night for Tyson and you have to give Teddy atlas credit as well they both made Mike the animal of a fighter he is but as soon as the vultures money grabbers started to come in with Tyson it ruined his career but Ali was the greatest sport man out there
Cus died in november 85. Tyson became champion november 86. So it was 1 year. Not 3.
👍
Ali's foot work was a thing of beauty..... Tyson firing Rooney his trainer and keeping Don King/ Robin Givens/ & the other leetches (the IRS & others) was his downfall. He was NO longer the same fighter. This is a athlete that should have gone undefeated. Cus created a wrecking ball that NO ONE could stop. Mike Tyson lacks the heart & character that TYSON FURY has---how ironic-- it's almost like a sign as to say this is where u went wrong mike.
Chuck Hashman fury the 🐗 eating 🍒 picker gtfoh🤡
Chuck Hashman btw his names Luke 🤷♂️😂
Lmao.. Ali making teddy drink juice for him 😁
Great story, keep telling them Teddy, good man.
Hahaa you will actually find a photo of Ali from the same year 1976, in that same room that Atlas described. Surrounded by vegetables, nutrient products and blenders. Btw the comedian he was talking about was actually Dick Gregory, not Eddie.
Great story !
I grew up w Ali as a childhood hero. Man he was great in his day. I know he loved Cuss and apparently it was mutual. I just don’t understand how he supported Ali t continue to fight when everyone could see he shouldn’t have been in the ring anymore.
Teddy looking fantastic the athletics greens must be working 😁👌
It taste great, champ.. beautiful, thanks for sharing..
Great story
Ali [talking about Frazier] to D'Amato 'slow down - he don't move that fast!' It's also plain to see Tyson's style in the way D'Amato moves.

I remember this story. And it was Dick Gregory that gave him that stuff
What's the outro song again?
What's the song at the end
Hey Teddy:
"They meet prior to Muhammad Ali's third fight with George Foreman, which took place outside at Yankee Stadium. "
Who won that third fight, and the second one also?
It's a flaw it should be Joe Frazier he only fought ones with Georges
I think he meant to say Ken Norton
Teddy says it correctly actually; was just an error in the title. Thanks for flagging!
@@SmokinJoe1098 yea it was kennie but is didn't see the hole video I kind of presumed.it I am sorry
Ali fought Norton 3 times, twice in 1972 and last time in 1976. He fought Fraser 1971, 1974 & 1975. He fought George Foreman in 1974. He should’ve fought Foreman again but to Ali credit Foreman had a hiatus from boxing after that loss. Returning in 1976. So by then Foreman had to earn his shot to be given a rematch.
Ding Gregory not Eddie Gregory.
Only Teddy can make an advertisement segment so interesting. The wisdom, the laughs and the greatest.
The GOAT. 🥊🔥💪💖
That's Dick Gregory not Eddie Gregory. Lol!
Teddy meant to say "Dick" Gregory. Eddie Gregory was a Light Heavyweight fighter turned Trainer.
Dick Gregory not Eddie
good move on the microphone on camera 🥊🧨
What other great boxers did cus train other than tyson?
Jose torres
Floyd Patterson, Jose Torres, Buster Mathis
Micheal Moorer
He said Eddie Geegory it was Dick Gregory.
Teddy sounds like Fat Tony at the beginning of this.
Aka the late great Baba Dick Gregory
Nice commercial !
Atheletic greens 🤑🤑🤑
isn't it Dick Gregory ⁉️
Don't think Teddy gets the joke from Ali....
One of my mums friends used to date him. Blew my mind when I found out.
