Thread: Starting to miss Teddy?

Whether you like Atlas or not I'll bet you are starting to miss him.
I can't wait to hear him mangle someone's last name, lay down one of his unique analogies and, of course, give us his opinion on that beautiful Marquez right hand counter.

Season premier January 4

Some changes this season.
Ultra slo-mo camera
A third fight added to most cards.
Bernardo Osuna - first ever on-site reporter.
Todd Grisham - new studio host.
Tessitore and Atlas work well together which means Tessitore can probably work with anyone. Hey, I love Atlas, but I have that mute button, Tessitore has to listen to every word.

LOL..... the thing about Teddy is he carries the analogies too far. One minute he's comparing the boxers to a surfer waiting for the perfect wave..... then he goes off into a baseball analogy, comparing punches to pitches (low and away... high and inside). He even does non-sport analogies.... one time going into business and meetings and shit like that. And when he grabs on to an analogy, he'll milk it throughout the fight.

Tessitore must have a couple of drinks both before and after each fight.
Bless his patient soul....

^^ Don't forget the classic football one, "you don't throw the ball where the receiver is, you throw it where he's gonna be"

I love Teddy Atlas lol.

"Put some water in the basement"

I didn't even know he was missing?

I actually don't like watching ESPN FNF because they have Teddy as the main expert. Boxing deserves better than a guy like Atlas. FNF is the only show displaying our sport to the general public on basic channel.

I don't consider Atlas as an expert cause what are his accomplishments? For a guy who talks like him, what does he have behind him? Being a sidekick to MIke Tysons original trainer? Training a few heavyweights whom holds none of the garbage titles?
