Boxing trainer Teddy Atlas revealed how he walked away from 5% of Mike Tyson's future earnings following a falling out. Atlas initially trained Tyson under the tutelage of legendary boxing coach Cus D’Amato. However, a confrontation with Tyson led to his departure from D’Amato’s gym, with Tyson siding with D’Amato after a gun incident. Later, Atlas was offered a deal that included 5% of Tyson’s earnings if he left the training camp, but he dismissed it as "never real" and walked away. Atlas also discussed learning life lessons from his father in his youth, particularly on understanding the consequences of one’s actions. He argued his departure wasn’t due to some heroic standing up but rather understanding the reality of his situation and opting for self-respect over an uncertain payday.
