Things get mis-reported all the time,on purpose
Half the time when your booking a fight,you allready know how the judges are going to go,barring mishap
It doesnt get any better in Amateurs,because the trainers have a vested intrest. I had a kid travel 2 hours just to get tuned by an Amateur champ because they wanted to get their boy some work.
I love the sport,but dont fool yourself,this is a brutal buisness
It was just humorous to me how people make it out for Teddy Atlas to be some sort of martyr and conscience of the sport when he takes part in some of things he strongly opposes while on the air.

The business end of the sport is pretty sickening.
Atlas has been in the sport longer then I have,if he thinks this sport has an ounce of consience,remind me to never use him for anything
