Mike Tyson:
One day he [Cus] said "listen you have the chance to change your life, your family's life, you can be very special. Don't you want to be champion? You can be champion of the world". I didn't pay no attention. He said really, "You could be champion of the world. You could devestate the world. No man can take what you did, you got to believe it". I looked at this guy and then I started thinking, I said, this guy is really crazy, that's what I said, this guy is really crazy. "You do what I tell you to do, and if it doesn't work then, then you can leave". So I said OK bet. I did everything he told me to do and I won, I won every championship. From the amateur championship, all the championships, I'm gonna cry, so I won every championship that he told, because, he told me what to do. And I started believing in this old man. I stopped being a little thief. I use to go back to New York and rob people and come back upstate and hide out. The day I stop doing all that I changed my whole life. I said I'm gonna stick to this boxing sh*t. I turned my whole life over to boxing. I turned into a complete animal, I turned into a disciplinarian.
