Atlas has told that story dozenss of times I'm sure. I myself have heard it about 4 times. I'm surprised you are not aware of it, it;spart of the Tyson lore which I thought everybody knew. Atlas himself was very young, and, although I've never seen it in print, the fact that both his wife and sister-in-law were crying, and the oblique way in which he mentions the "young relative" it seems likely that the girl was his sister-in-law.
And, I think that D'Amato kicked him out because of it, and Teddy always slagged Tyson unmercifully from ESPN. Never a single good word from him, even about his boxing ability. Can't blame him much.
Isn't he looking more and more like Boris Karloff??
