In "Atlas", Teddy recounts his incredible life, from juvenile
delinquent, to his induction into the legendary Cus D'Amato's
Boxing Camp and his first major challenge - training 14-year-old
Mike Tyson. An amateur boxer trained by D'Amato, Atlas captured the
Adirondack Golden Gloves title at 139 pounds in 1976. Forced out of
competition because of injury, Teddy turned his talents to training
fighters, including Mike Tyson, Barry McGuigan, Tracy Patterson,
Joey Gamache, Simon Brown and Donny Lalonde. In 1994, in a
memorable performance as trainer and corner man, Teddy inspired
Michael Moorer to beat Evander Holyfield for the world heavyweight
championship. Teddy has also employed his talents outside of the
ring appearing in 2 films and choreographing fight scenes for the
television series "Against the Law". "Atlas" is the remarkable
story of all of these achievements, told in Atlas' completely
inimitable voice. As you'd expect from a boxing memoir, it pulls no
punches.
