From a post over at The Scene (all credit to Queen Leia who did it up): "Atlas pick history: Roy Jones Jr. over Joe Calzaghe Winky Wright knocking out Bernard Hopkins Mikkel Kessler over Joe Calzaghe Marco Antonio Barrera over Manny Pacquiao in their rematch Bernard Hopkins over Joe Calzaghe Ray Austin over Wladimir Klitschko Sultan Ibragimov over Wladimir Klitschko Tony Thompson over Wladimir Klitschko Miguel Cotto over Antonio Margarito Shane Mosley over Miguel Cotto Floyd Mayweather over Ricky Hatton Oscar De La Hoya over Floyd Mayweather Jermain Taylor over Kelly Pavlik Zab Judah over Miguel Cotto Zab Judah over Floyd Mayweather Kelly Pavlik over Bernard Hopkins Manny Pacquiao over De La Hoya Margarito over Mosley Kelly Pavlik over Rubio Miguel Cotto over Jenning Juan Diaz over Marquez Oscar De La Hoya over Stevie Forbes and now Williams over Winky" You can also add Katsidis over Casamayor and Paul Williams over Quintana to the list. He DID get Paul Williams over Antonio Margarito right as well as Vitali over JCG.
hmm sasy... nice find bro. just shows that you shouldn't always follow or go with the so called "experts".:good
I wouldn't buy too much into it, remember the "Kellerman kurse" well people stopped talking about that largely after he snapped his streak.
Hi guys; I think Atlas just tries to make interest in these fights, by picking the underdogs. everybody pisses on his picks and it adds to the excitment. i like winky in this fight
lol i didn't believe in such a thing as a curse until i heard about atlas curse on here and found out damn near everybody he pick lose.out of those 24 fights he got 7 of them right and the ones i highlighted haveno business losing to those fighter.you have to something special in you to beat the curse. william going to have to come in the fight mentally and physical stronger than ever now. 10 o'clock can't come fast enough i don't care who's wins i like both
This is not a joke in any way and should be taken very seriously! I'm sticking with Williams by UD but a Winky victory is not out of the question at all. Damn Atlas! :twisted:
(Credit to QL) Here the transcript of Atlas picking Tony Thompson to beat Klitchsko - Atlas: So I hope I don't melt because I'm picking Thompson Kenny: No, Noooooo,No,No,No Atlas: I'm picking Thompson Kendell Gill: Awwww Nooooooooo Kenny: Nooooo, think that through, nooooo Atlas: Yeah I am, yes, yes, yes.....yeah I am...... let me think about it....let me think about it for a minute. Atlas (after 3 seconds) Yeah I'm still going Kenny (cutting Atlas off): No really Atlas: I might be insulting Klitchko a little bit but u know... Kenny *laughs* Gill *laughs* Atlas: I'm still going to go with Thompson, ok look where his advantages is, he has a much.. Kenny (cutting Atlas off): That was a long time ago, Atlas: No, No, but, but Kenny: Teddy look Klitchko has won 8 in a row and he has starched guys like Calvin Brock Atlas: Yes and he hasn't Kenny: And he's beaten up Sam Peter Atlas: Yes and maybe he's a little lax now, maybe he's thinking the way that you guys are thinking, that all he has to do is show up and land the right hand. And if the right hand doesn't land at an appretune time, maybe the strength of Thompson & he does has some strengths here...don't forget he's been winning too. He's a guy who has better good long arms, pretty good size. He's a guy that throws a lot of punches...where he outdoes Klitchko is that he's busier that Klitchko...If he can survive, outwork Klitchko and get to him early, maybe he can bring some of those demons, some of those witches and they been there before back into the head of Klitchko
