Teddy Atlas on Mayweather-Pacquaio

Better technique, straighter punching and equal speed will make a fighter faster. Just because hes heavier doesnt mean hes slower.
You should try and learn something for a change rather than shooting your mouth off all the time.

 

It's conditioning. Pacquiao has been in a lot of wars in the ring and the gym. He's gotten better at taking punches. The more you get hit , the more you get used to it. It's really as simple as that.

The reason he looks faster (which I disagree) is because he's fighting bigger, slower guys. At the lower weights, almost every fighter has decent handspeed but that isn't the case at the higher weights.

 

Do you think he does it as a parody at this point. The guy knows boxing he's just picking the underdog or guy he doesn't like. If it's true he can brag about it but he's use to usually making sold bold/crazy prediction that it has to be some kind of a joke.

 

he predicated hatton would win as well.....not sure about cotto or clottey...but yeah..he seems to have some feelings

 

:huh that might be true when your a ****ing beginer...but at somepoint "getting hit" stops making you able to take shots better. If anything its just the maybe he was weight drained at lower weights...which can make you more susceptable to punches..and now he is healthy.

 

Atlas still hasn't shown the email or its source. he was paid by GBP to say those things

Next fight was the JMM rematch and Pac was still draining minutes before the weigh-in. his decision to move up to 135 was necessary and even at 135, he still struggled to make weight.

Pac's last KO loss was at 112, he lost the title at the scales and was KO'd in the fight. he jumped past 115 and 118 to fight at 122 right after that loss.

 

AGREE with every-thing Teddy-A said on teh video. :thumbsup

He a boxing-Xpert. :deal



Foreman Hoooooooooooooooooook!:hat

 

I thought it was a very good interview from Atlas, conducted it properly

 

Why ESPN continues to give Atlas a forum is beyond me.He is horrid in predicting most fights and when calling a fight he merely repeats himself round after round.Highly over rated.
