Thread: Donny Lalonde responds to Atlas

http://www.fightnews.ca/2006/news/lalonde20060612.htm

good article on how Teddy Atlas almost shot Donny Lalonde

Wow, I didn't know that Atlas was such a nutcase. is there anyone he hasn't tried to shoot?

Atlas has the big scar on his face for a reason, I'm sure

and Lalone has every reason to be pissed in the fact that when he fought SRL his left shoulder was completely jacked.......all left over from the Atlas years.....but even after all of that...I still think Teddy was instrumental in his career....

Teddy knows boxing but maybe he's not an anatomy/physio guy.

In any event he loses credibility in my book by writing about walking around with a gun in his hand ready to shoot someone.

Too many Eastwood movies for Teddy

Teddy is a loon

I have zero interest in Teddys personal life, but a guy with a good head on his shoulders in Michael Moorer would not still, after all these years, have so much love for Teddy, if he was all bad or crazy. Most people in the boxing world have demons and there are still more decent people in boxing than any other sport imo

He should not have written that in his book, it proves nothing it only pisses people off and his loses credibility, conflict does sell- look at Jose Conseco.

LMAO ! you got a point there !

Do yah feel lucky, punk?

Whoever said too much Dirty Harry. I bet when Atlas said he would have shot him and walked away he would expect credits to roll behind him and music to play
