    I think Atlas does it on purpose, but it do be funny when he is always against the Klits

    Ibrag isn't 6'2, no way no how. He looked way shorter than Holy at the weigh-in.

    Youknow HBO ask fighters how tall they are, and give that as the official statistic?

    I met Teddy at the K9-Ouma fight. He bought us a few rounds because we drove there from Detroit. Anyway, he HATES Klitschko!It comes out even more when he drinks!

    Calling Adamek "maybe B level".

    You can debate whether he is A level or not but to question whether he is between C or B is ******ed on Atlas' part.

    I agree Bigcat, but damn would he be stupid to repeat that after suffering his knockout loss to Sanders.

    I don't think Waldo is that kind of stupid. He knows Thompson is a big guy and even though he doesn't seem like a puncher he can punch when he wants to.

    I am expecting Waldo to box cautiously and to eventually catch Thompson with right hands (he eats them alot). Waldo TKO about 8.

    Atlas may indeed hate Wlad, but I think he's trying to get some attention and catch "lighting in a bottle" if Thompson upsets the odds. If Thompson wins, he looks like some genius, and if he loses, it's just yet another bad prediction Atlas made that people will forget about.

    If Thompson hits Klitschko, he probably will win. Wladimir is an overrated champion, but it's not his fault, just naive fans unable to acknowledge that the entire division is an absolute joke. Wladimir reminds me of gerry Cooney, just a good job there isn't a holmes or Foreman around these days.

    I pick Wladimir, but it isn't crazy to pick Thompson. He's better than Ross purity.

    No, he said Adamek is a b-level fighter and maybe higher.

    I think he puts Adamek somewhere between A - B levels, because he feels that although Adamek is good at what he does, he is a little predictable especially in his movement. He probably feels that a skilled fighter like Cunningham will figure this out.

    I heard him talk up Margorito; so I'm not too sure about this.

    He probably figured that if Thompson pulls the upset, he'll look like a genius. And, if Wlad wins, like everyone expects, his poor call will soon be forgotten.

    Atlas probably picked him because of what happened the last time Wlad fought a tall southpaw.
