About Me:
******************************
CONSTANTINE "CUS" D' AMATO:
17-1-1908 - 4-11-1985
"A boy cones to me with a spark a flame. I feed the flame and it becomes a fire, i feed the fire and it becomes a roazing blaze."
******************************
"People love violence. A lot of them always says that they love boxing. They got no a idea what it is. Boxing is about Respect... To get it for yourself and take it away from the other guy."
"If you don't get hit, you don' t lose. As so simple is that."
"The first lesson I teach these kids before I teach them to box is a lesson about Fear, about what Fear is and why we have it. Fear is like a fire. If you control it, as we do when we heat our houses, it is a friend. When you don't, it consumes you and everything you do and everything around you."
"I am a professional. My commitment demands of me, my pride. Everybody sets his own limitations on himself. I set no limitations on myself, except to do the job that I commit myself to do."
"When a fighter no longer wants to fight, he finds a convenient corner to lie down in. It's all psychological."
"Mike's punch is like an atomic bomb in that it is relative to nature. Both have no value unless you have a means of conveying it to the target. He is boxing-smart."
"There are no stupid people. There are only uninterested people."
"People who are born round don't die square."
- CUS D' AMATO
******************************
"It's unbelievable that he (CUS D' AMATO) could have that kind of foresight."
- LENNOX LEWIS
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
"CUS D' AMATO was Prophet."
- FRANK BRUNO
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
"If CUS had not moved up to Catskill and remained in New York City or opened a gym in Brooklyn where kids could train for free, he would have created 20 world champions."
- JIMMY JAKOBS and KEVIN ROONEY
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
"If CUS had lived for 7,8 more years Mike Tyson's record would be 100-0."
- TEDDY ATLAS
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
"Before the Ali-Foreman fight in Zaire, Ali came to Jim Jacobs' apartment to watch some films of Foreman. And, CUS was there. After they finished watching the films, Ali asked Cus 'What do you think?' CUS said, 'You've gotta go out there and hit Foreman with your best shot... right away. He's under the impression that you can't punch! You've gotta show him, right off the bat that you CAN punch. That's it. You don't have to do it for the rest of the round.'
Sure enough, that's what Ali does and he surprises Foreman with it. That was the moment that Ali gained the psychological edge."
- KEVIN ROONEY and BILL CAYTON
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
"If a boxer was sucessful with style, combat did not seem to change it, but seek to improve the skills of fighter and minimize their weknesses."
- EMANUEL STEWARD about all trainers who tried to change Mike Tyson's style after Kevin Rooney. Mike Tyson has used the "CUS D' AMATO Peek a Boo" style since he was thirteen years old.
"People who think a good 240 pounder would beat a great 180-190 pounder just dont understand the fight game.Big guys dont make great fighters."
- ANGELO DUNDEE.
