Cus D’Amato Tribute


This short video tribute celebrates the life and philosophy of Constantine "Cus" D'Amato.
Constantine “Cus” D’Amato was one of the last in a long line of old school trainers. Born in the Bronx in 1908, after abandoning dreams of entering the priesthood, he embraced the dream of boxing. A small time operator working out of the Gramercy Gym, Cus knew his stuff and shared that knowledge with Floyd Patterson, Jose Torres, Mike Tyson, and Teddy Atlas. This short tribute, done in conjunction with his entry into the National Italian American Sports Hall of Fame, celebrates the career and philosophy of Cus D’Amato, with commentary by Muhammad Ali, Norman Mailer, Jim Jacobs and of course Mike Tyson himself…
