Thread: If you could ask one question about boxing , what would it be?

Mine would be why did Teddy Atlas go into the crowd in Las Vegas many years ago and start a ruckus with some guy (I think it might have been a writer or reporter)? I believe Teddy may have been addressing the crowd at the time. What triggered this explosion? I know he got into a number of other potential fights, but this one involved him doing a bit of beat down on the victim--or at least I believe it did. Anyone know the facts.?

test

I wanna know what caused him to go after Mike Tyson with a gun. At least thats what I heard, something about his daughter.

Sonny did you take a dive against Ali?

Might have been his niece. Whoever it was, it cost Teddy his job because Cus sent him on his way after that.

Cus should have taken action against Tyson, maybe if he did Tyson would not have been the spoilt man he became.

Floyd do you really believe all if that piss & vinager that comes outta your mouth?And is it the fear of eventually sounding like Uncle Roger that makes you ....careful.

Tony.Did you know,really, or are you just simple?.

"Teddy is boxing REALLY that similar to cars, football, short order cooking, picnics, racing, dancing, politics, etc?"


Willie Pep "How the hell do you fight like that over 250 times with success?" Not that I wonder how he won, but just how he knew when to move and feint....not an all action fighter by any means but just a pure genius in the ring

Why Roberto why?

Aaron Pryor: to you knowledge, was there something special in the famous black bottle in your first bout against El Flaco explosivo?

Aguably, he may well have been the best ever. I rate him number one.

I would love to ask Don King how he became the greatest hustler in the fight game.

Boy can that man promote.

valero: what really happened?

I may be mistaken but I'm pretty sure the reigns of Tyson had already been handed off to Kevin Rooney because Tyson resisted discipline and Cus saw Tyson as the golden ticket. Then Tyson started talking bad about Teddy (who was training other younger fighters still) and then grabbed his niece's ass or something and Teddy went crazy and took a gun to him. Teddy's book is an awesome awesome read. He's just as crazy as he seems but he's been there and done that with pretty much everything.
