Good question. As far as I know, there hasn't been any sort of biography books done on Cus. Would make an interesting read I'm sure!

Yes. Damato is one of the most legendary trainers ever. I cannot accept that there is no book about him. :-?
Would be great if someone would give a tip. :box:

Sometime back, there was an article in Playboy about Tyson called "Tyson Laid Bare" or something very similar to that.

The article mentioned Cus and Jimmy Jacobs and their role in developing Tyson. The article was apparently considered controversial and was written by a fellow named Jonathan Rendall.

If Cus and Jacobs had lived and if Tyson had continued listening to them, then his legacy as a boxer would have been huge, imo.
