Teddy fighting back some deep seeded emotions here.

Watch the full interview now as a VladTV RU-vid Member - ru-vid.comjoin

This a deep story, you can tell Teddy is trying to think about what to say, how much to share, and fight back the emotions of a very sad and disturbing time in his life.

Getting the feeling that theres gonna be a whooole lotta editing 💨 for this interview!

Atlas always calls out robberies in boxing. Calls out corrupt judges who slowly killing the sport over the years

I can't believe the disrespect from Vlad to not even interview teddy atlas in person...I can see why Tyson wants to knock Vlad out

This seems like its going to be a good one, love how he was thoughtful and hesitant but end up letting us know

Teddy tells a powerful story. And is still sharp for his age

I remember the 007 back in the day. I’m from Harlem, and a lot of guys carried that 007 which was a folding knife, and not a switchblade. And like Teddy said, you were flick it open, and there was a technique to it in fact, me and my cousin from Brooklyn always practice flicking that 007 open. So what Teddy said it was all about the flick of the wrist. It was a big knife too, and had a rawhide string attached to it. A lot of New Yorkers carried the 007 back in the days. We talking back in the 70s and 80s.

Love this guy.. his knowledge of boxing and how it ties into life is second to none.

I'd bet my house that by the time this whole thing comes out, it'll end up being a 5hr interview😂😂

Damn Vlad. This could be EPIC. You get the goats sir. This dude got stories on top of stories

Glad you are asking him about his story!! People need to know 🥊

Great interview! I'm looking forward to watching the rest!!

That bothered him to speak about the revenge attempt. At that moment u realize Atlas is anything but soft, and it bothered him to function like an emotionless monster, but it also hurt to call-off the revenge due to him having a heart (w/kids being present).

He's the one who pulled the heater out on Tyson

Teddy was hanging in the same projects the Wu tang clan is from 😂

Teddy a legend

Love Teddy, extremely knowledgeable on the sport of boxing and always gives great interviews.

His book is fuckn amazing! Laughs, tears and emotions in that book

This is one of the only times I’ve heard Teddy really struggling to put his words together, because of the pain it brings back.

Now this will be a quality interview I can’t wait for the rest.

Another great get Vlad! Unsung heroes. People who we know but regular media don't talk to.

Yo Vlad! Thanks for this boxing content man. Straight up

Bro really ended with “we called it off” after all dat nonsense 😂😂😂

That’s an honourable man.

This is why you need to be careful with road rage! I’m particular with who I get angry at when driving…usually stick to women, senior citizens or someone who’s noticeably disabled. So if it kicks off I got a chance!!

His story’s get more legendary the older he gets

Teddy was running the block!

Teddy Face Killa 🙏🏼

Wow! All the boxing fans are clicking on this one. He didn't even give this much detail in his book. Great storyteller. He started off a little rough though, lots of pauses. I can't wait to hear the rest.

Stapleton is a rough area, I know it very well. For those who may not know, it is also where some of the Wu is from. It was as rough an area as any in the 5 boros.

Lmao called him out for not being there right away

I already know this is going to be a 500 part interview. Its going to last the whole 2024

Bro could turn a yes or no question into an entire eight part series each series containing ten volumes, with six, 19 hour long episodes per volume with four, thirty-minute ad breaks in each episode

Whoa what a bang to start a interview!

Wow. Part 1 epic. Teddy doesnt like memory lane of this story.

His autobiography is awesome

Hes making sure he doesn’t incriminate himself.. very smart from him

Teddy Atlas is one of the brightest minds in boxing. Looking forward to hearing the rest of this interview

Teddy Atlas is a legend in the Boxing community.

Shout out Teddy Atlas. I had a lot of good memories growing up with this guy.🔥👍🏾

I lived in Stapleton Projects for a lot of years back in the 70's. It was tough, but I had the time of my life.

This man’s is a philosopher far beyond regular wisdom

Nice to see Teddy on Vlad.

I can appreciate Teddy for the most part but my God he takes longer than anyone in the world to get to the freaking point! He acts like every thing he says has to be the most profound jewel of wisdom like bro just spit it out!

A lot of folks don't realize why Atlas often takes a long time to get to the point? It's because that things would get taken outta context and misunderstood!, therefore he takes his time and builds a clear picture (nothing wrong w with this).

“It was a tough neighborhood. It had projects, it was Stapleton!” Lol Wu-Tang Clan Ain’t Nothin’ to F*ck Wit

I have a face scar that traumatized me too man i feel this

Love Teddy. Respect 🙏

Got alot of respect for Teddy Atlas.

I love Teddy!! Respect

It’s a cold world. Be safe and stay out of trouble

Lol the end of this video had me dying

Well spoken

Like others have said. You can tell obviously this story. Was a huge deal in Teddys life. Maybe it brings some anger. That he’s tried putting behind him. At the end of the day though. We’re all men out here in this world. If someone slashes your face like that. I’d imagine apart of you. Would want to pay that back to the guy with the knife. My 6th grade Middle School yeaar. I remember getting a black eye in a fight. The kid had gotten the better of me. For days weeks months after that. I would go back to that moment. And feel rage in my mind. So so much built up anger. I learned a black eye isn’t so bad and, to move on. Obviously a deep cut on your face hits different. If you can understand what I’m saying here.

Love teddy!!

Honestly if something like this ever happened to you you’d understand why this isn’t crazy at all

Know Dr. Atlas well. I'm from Staten island my whole life and went to see Dr. Atlas a few times and was my mother in laws regular doctor. Very nice doc.

Damn, he's reliving this event as he's telling it.

Stapleton is still rough.

Teddy Atlas Like let me choose my words very carefully here lol

Teddy is a legend!

The man the legend!!

This is fire !

He had Beef with Iron Mike & Macho Camacho...smh

Wow IDK Teddy was from Grimes Hill!!! I knew about Tyson first.

Teddy the boxing god. Forgot more about boxing than most people know about it

He knows how to turn a 3 minute clip into a 10 minute clip

I like teddy.He is a great trainer.Also his story is interesting

Clips from this interview is gonna laat till 2050

Dentist also work on facial cuts in hospital. In bronx lebanon hospital that was common.

Great guest

Part II w/ MJF, AJ Styles, Adam Cole & HBK Please

Cant wait for his story of him knowing Sammy the Bull back in the day.. i think Sammy used to train in his gym, he spoke on it in a documentary

Why is Vlad not there in the studio?

Much respect to atlas. Sometimes situations occur life where you have to deal with it.

I would have never guess Teddy’s dad was a doctor and he grew up in a nice area

"I recognized the knife" is crazy 🤦

vlad the master of re uploads

He musta been like wait this is a FaceTime call? Lmao

This was a hard listen

Teddy turned his life around *cuss realy helped him and tyson < little long with his stories! But he is is a class act

big fan of this guy

Had never heard the story about him finding the dude who slashed him

I would have loved for Vlad to try this slice shit when he interviewed Mike. Baselessly insinuating and asking if his mentor and adoptive father was gay because he chose to dedicate his life to boxing and building champions. Everyone who doesn't have kids isn't gay. Disrespecting a man from an era where you know dam well he wouldn't have been ok with that life style.

We had the 007 here in London back in the days I had one

Had a 007, wooden handle lock blade. We all had them back then.

So wait, Vlad isn’t even present for some of these interviews lol sounds like its cleaned up, as if he rerecorded his questions and used that audio as opposed to the audio captured from the screen/facetime. Or perhaps he’s using an audio interface to capture the audio on his end and submits it to his editors. Interesting.

Teddy Atlas is a true gentleman

His autobiography is a very good read

Damn uncle Charlie from the gap band was wild ass hell lol😂😂😂

400 damn.. half his face must've been hanging off

He's traumatized and from being stabbed before I can relate.

this guy a is a great story teller.

Teddy was chillin with WU tang before the WU he was with their older brothers and stuff.

Oh no another Keefer dee situation telling in himself thanks vlad l😂😂

Teddy always seems to make every situation into a long drawn out emotional story.

Thats old skool, we used to call that knife 007 as well

Can’t wait to hear the part he bashes on Tyson and not calling him great
