Mike Tyson Trained by Kevin Rooney After Cus D'Amato's Passing, Not Teddy Atlas 

We explore the legacy of legendary boxing trainer Cus D'Amato and his transformative role in shaping Mike Tyson's career. After a period of relative obscurity following his success with champions like Floyd Patterson and Jose Torres, D'Amato moved to Catskill, New York, where he met a young Mike Tyson. Under D'Amato's mentorship, Tyson adopted the peek-a-boo boxing style, leading to his meteoric rise. Despite D'Amato's passing before Tyson became the youngest heavyweight champion, his influence endured through Kevin Rooney, who continued Tyson's training. The video also touches on Tyson's later struggles after parting ways with Rooney, highlighting the profound impact of D'Amato and Rooney on Tyson's boxing journey .
