What personality type is Cus D'Amato? Cus D'Amato is an ENTJ personality type in MBTI, 8w9 - so/sp - in Enneagram, SCOAI in Big 5, LSI in Socionics.
Very principled, controlled and strict man. He values character and talent. He wanted his students to be humble and beast at the same time. He is not training anyone for the sake of making anyone a monster, but to make them mentally tough. I feel bad for Mike Tyson for losing him.
Biography
Constantine "Cus" D'Amato (January 17, 1908 – November 4, 1985) was an American boxing manager and trainer who handled the careers of Mike Tyson, Floyd Patterson, and José Torres; all went on to become members of the International Boxing Hall of Fame. Several successful boxing trainers, including Teddy Atlas and Kevin Rooney were tutored by D'Amato. He was a proponent of the peek-a-boo style of boxing, in which the fighter holds his gloves close to his cheeks and pulls his arms tight against his torso. The style was criticized by some because it was believed that an efficient attack could not be launched from it. At age 22, he opened the Empire Sporting Club with Jack Barrow at the Gramercy Gym. D'Amato lived in the gym for years. According to D'Amato, he spent his time at the gym waiting for a "champion", but his best fighters were routinely poached by "connected" managers. D'Amato also confronted boxing politics.
