No he wasn't, he steamrolled through the best at that time with ease. His downfall began by marrying Robin Givens, getting rid of Kevin Rooney and of course aligning himself with Don King.


Had Cus D'Amato lived 10 years longer, it would be a totally different story.

I agree, that was the actual event that started the dominos falling.

Cus died years before Tyson unified the Heavyweight belt. By all accounts (from Teddy Atlas and others) Cus was extremely permissive of the troubled teenage Mike and basically spoiled him. Soft disciplinarian


Adult Tyson with tens of millions in his bank account / inflated ego is not listening to Cus.
