It was effective psychology. It got Mike in a state of mind to visualize his victories, and to also have confidence in his training. You might think its cold, but you absolutely cannot deny that it worked.

This is what a lot of Tyson contrarians just don't understand when they put on those rose-colored glasses and marvel at the old fighters while downplaying Mike. Tyson WAS one of those old school fighters coming to the ring. Dempsey haircut, no socks, no robe, full sweat before entering the ring. A mindset from Cus who was born in the early 1900's and watched all those great men in person. Coached Mike and had Jim Jacobs give him a gigantic fighting library Mike would watch every night after training all day. He was from the greatest of the old guard coming to destroy those that aren't near as dedicated or who understood the craft on his level. Tyson would have one those records of 140 wins if he fought once a week with those gloves and rules. He probably would've killed someone eventually. Cus would've had him piling up bodies at 16.

They did tho.. Tyson has losses in the amateurs with Cus as his manager. When Cus died Mike was only like 10 fights into his pro career.. He didnt win the heavyweight title until wayyy after that.

@@artvandelay837 And if his head isn't in the game, lacking interest, not training like he should've been, then his conditioning is going to be nowhere near where it should be with his reflexes and timing all out of whack. This is exactly what Cus meant when he said he believes fighting at that level is 75 percent mental. When you're focused and motivated, your physical conditioning follows suit. Mike began fighting in an era of the big money fights and ppv. Champions were not fighting near as frequently as they did back in the day because there was way more bullsh*t you had to go through making big fights happen. There was no more bum of the month club for guys that held the title. This was actually a pretty big detriment for a guy like Mike, who needed that constant distraction of a fight coming up to keep his skills sharpened, which his style of fighting especially called for because it's more physically taxing than a lot of other ways of boxing. For anyone that doesn't think so, try it out. Be the physical aggressor while at the same time being the more elusive one. Your timing has to be pin-point if you're the one who's constantly coming forward while also being the better elusive fighter. Guys like Mike and Joe Frazier were always going to have shorter primes than guys like Mayweather and Holmes. For those thinking Tyson was still in his prime just because he was young physically seem to be lacking a huge understanding of the fight game. A 22 year old swimmer who hits the pool 6 days a week for 6 hours a day is going to be a lot better swimmer than he would be at 23 but only swimming a few times a week for a couple hours. They are both in their physical prime, but they aren't in the same physical condition to swim. The 22 year old is going to be the superior swimmer. All you have to do is look at how Mike moved in 86' compared to 90' and beyond. Even in his presser after the Spinks fight, he said he was considering retirement. I think we all knew that he wouldn't but that is a far cry from the mindset he had at the post-fight presser in 86' after he won the title. Mikes always been a fragile guy emotionally, and that just made it all the more likely for his personal life to derail which in turn affected everything else, most notably his fight career. The fighter that fought Berbick was nowhere near the same fighter that fought Douglass. Mikes hardest opponent has always been himself.

That's one way to teach someone self confidence and seriousness

Mike wasn’t a beast.. he was a super hero without direction.. don’t call an amazing black athlete a monster… Cus was an amazing mentor and father… he lost so many of his young talent to assholes. That in his last years he professed mike was his reason to live … men don’t bear beasts that create gods…

He legit hypnotized him to make him think this is how everything goes all the time. Keeps him focused.

Cus saying that to Mike kept him in a humble but killer mindset, when you start to expect to knock someone out then its natural to do it

If Cus would have lived another 5 years… Tyson would have been unbeaten. Losing Cus was the start of his downfall, all the monsters outside the ring presented themselves.

"I expected people to get knocked out, that's why I never celebrated" - Mike Tyson. Wow, Mike really is a monster, it's scary to even imagine what it's like to step up on the ring to fight Tyson, let alone do the actual fight. 💀

This is next level Cuss stuff..

Exactly right. This wasn't an accident. When you have the mindset to win then your victory is expected.

Imagine knowing every person that you ever face in a fight you will knock them out, no matter what size or background they are. they're lights are going out 💡

Cus made Mike an unstoppable fighting machine.

"I expected them to be knocked out." That's so crazy

Mike had the perfect coach, they were made for each other and I don’t think you see such often. Maybe once a century.

Cus seen and made him untouchable,no fear and no Mercy

It’s almost sad, cus literally created a monster, that fought & literally thought like a terminator. cus shifted his brain away from the streets & made the whole world fear him, what comes with that, especially when you’re never taught how to “turn it off”. I’d say it was harder than it was great living his life as a fighter, he was the way he was because of how he grew & above all, his ability the way he was taught to think, made him unstoppable, no social media, just pure talent & dedication.

CUS NEW BEST

Cus was rhe best thing to ever happen to Mike. I know how much this man meant to him. You're going to see him again one of these days Mike.

Mike is the man..the honesty

Cus was teaching you!!!! You were using up your energy by jumping around. He loved you, and he wanted you to have all the knowledge that he had to share with you to be the greatest boxer of all times. Life isn't anything if you can't share your knowledge and make you the greatest boxer ever. ❤❤❤

The timing of these interactions is iconic… cus and Mike, unbeatable!!

Cus and mike legendary duo great mentor and great student love mike tyson 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

Cus taught Mike not only how to fight, but respect, discipline, and reverence for your opponents. He was old-school cool and a great father figure when a wild young man needed him.

We need a Cus movie

Cus shouldve taught all these athletes to act like this is a normal thing.

Mike without Cus. What a loss! We all felt it and still do.

That is confidence, man. "You've been training this whole time, so this was the expected result. You have no need to be happy or elated, because this was the expected result." It's basically saying "For you, the day you were defeated by Mike Tyson was the most important day of your life. For Mike, it was Tuesday."

Mike tyson is the GOAT 🐐

Cus set his expectations so high, so that's cost his success and achivement

Cus Literally Taught Mike The Art Of Being Humble 💯

Mike I frigging love you. Cus is The Man. And he’s got your back. 💯 And if you asked him that last question. I’m confident of his answer. ♥️ *You’ve done well son..* 💯♥️👊🏼

Cus was like: *Stop jumping around, he was suppose to be knocked out, you did what you learned, nothing else.*

If cus had stayed alive, Mike would have been on another level. It's scary to imagine
