    Gaz, come on man... can't see anybody ripping Teddy like this :lol:

    I love Teddy, I think he's great value. I wish we'd invest in a decent commentator like him. **** that, I wouldn't mind if he was the ref and the judges as well.

    He makes the mismatches that often take place on ESPN entertaining.

    I liked him this week refusing to kiss Hopkins arse like everyone else was, basically he was saying Hopkins is taking advantage of a poor division. Also his fight plans are class.

    Best ever quote....

    To Michael Moorer returning to his corner during the Holyfield fight..

    Teddy wouldn't let him sit on his stool and said

    "Do you want me to take over ?"

    Classic :hey

    Funny thing is I didn't even realize that was from Teddy. It was just imprinted in my mind. Thats the genius of Teddy right there.

    I'm not sure how Atlas put up with Moorer to be honest.

    I know he liked working with people that were slightly complex but Moorer is (or was) a genuine headcase. Definitely not wired right IMO.

    The americans give Atlas far too much stick whenever Teddy's calling a fight. Teddy knows more about the science of boxing then any other commentator out there, even the fighters who have taken commentating jobs.
