Atlas knows his stuff. Yeah, he talks like a freaken psychologist most of the time but he knows his stuff. He stays.
I like Teddy, he calls it how he sees it, and you can't disrespect a man for that. If he smells some BS involved, he makes it no secret that he thinks something isn't right. Sometimes he analogies drag out, but it's one of the things that make him unique. All in all he's a good guy that tries his best, and he is fine in my book.
Ya, when Ted Atlas is gone then you will be bitching about the next guy thats how it goesatschnutverysad:verysad
thats what i like about atlas he question a 10 and 0 fighter that hasnt fought anyone or a world class amatuer on his pro debut for fighting a 2 and 15 fighter i like teddy although i dont bet on his predictions lol but all and all i mean brian kenny doesnt know as much about boxing but makes up with his showman ship that teddy lacks
Atlas always trys to make people thing he speaks the truth, is most honest guy around, and is looking out for the fans. None of those things are true. Ever watch old fights on ESPN Classic? One announcer, and whoever it is, they only talk when neccessary. It's tv, not radio, we don't need two or three guys talking over each other telling us what we can see with our own eyes.
Not only that but his knowledge is thrown out the window because he is extremely biased. He is still trashing Mike Tyson because of some incident that happened in the ****ing 1980s. Like it or not Tyson is a top 10 or surely top 15 ATG but Atlas has nothing good to say about him ever.
all the boxing commentators such as Lewis, Steward, Kellerman, Atlas, are very incite full but none of them are very charismatic. That makes it really hard to listen too. The only commentator that I think is Incite full and charismatic is Al Bernstein.
****ing horrible, worst commentator by FAR. Teddy is BAD for the sport. Listen to him, he ends up just talking **** about fighters all the time, to Teddy everyone is flawed and sucks. That isn't selling boxing by only talking about what is wrong all the time. Boxing needs guys to sell the sport... Teddy just thinks he knows how everything "should" be... well ****.. we all know that **** already.. **** YOU TEDDY. Teddy Atlas SUCKS.
I've got nothing against Atlas and nothing against Kellerman for that matter. I don't understand why entire threads are dedicated to bashing guys who are nothing more than supporting characters on boxing broadcasts.
Yeah I watched it but I'm not in the habit of letting the announcers bother me unless it is so blatantly horrible like Bobby Czyz's dislike of Holyfield. Teddy made some good points. The only thing I really had a problem with was his scorecard for the Urango fight. I thought he gave Bailey a couple of rounds that he didn't really but I understand that his is an unofficial card. Not worth getting upset over.
He pretty much called what Foreman was going to do to Moorer, if MM listens he still would've been the heavyweight champ. Dont really have any problems with Teddy but I understand how he can **** people off.
