Teddy Atlas

[beenKOed]

I just scrolled down this thread and there's another 5 threads about this man. Why keep talking about him? The guy's claim to fame is pointing a gun at 13 year old Tyson and having his HW champ get knocked out by a 50 year old man. The guy's a mediocre commentator also.

Surely you'd do a better job of gun wielding, training and commentating.

Nice face by the way.

Since you like to bring up how connected Atlas is in boxing, I'll name a few guys a lot better than Atlas at commentating and also well connected to the sport.

Ray Leonard, George Foreman, Paulie Malignaggi, Andre Ward, Roy Jones, Antonio Tarver. If ABC/ESPN wanted an insightful and excellent commentator, hire those guys. At least 3 of them aren't under contract. Many classes above Atlas when it comes to commentating and some of them has more knowledge on the sport than he does, who is very mediocre at what he does.

Sir, Tarver cut his own throat. Foreman makes too much money doing other things. Leonard doesn't seem that interested. Ward is not that interested in full time work right now. Paulie and Roy are doing good work where the are.
I don't think anybody said that Teddy is the best but he has been a fighter, trainer, corner man, and around boxing for most of his life.
I like Atlas because he really doesn't care if you agree with what he says or not, he is going to say what he thinks.
