Teddy Atlas: "Don't forget Pacquiao was knocked out two times early in his career." ... Yeah... When he was a flyweight...
Rafael could actually be heard in the backround saying 'dead at the weight' after Atlas said that. The Teddy Atlas curse does ruin most fighters, however Hatton has battled these curses before. He beat the EA curse for when he was on the cover of Fight Night Round 2(UK version), not being defeated until round 3 came out(no longer being on the cover). Hopefully that's the case here.
When I hear Atlas' pick, It just feels like you find out the results of the fight ahead of time. I was tipping Hatton, now I feel like I just found he lost. lol
It was teddy's reasoning that is throwing me off that Ricky is the hungry guy and Pac who reached the pinnacle is no longer hungry. That is the dumbest way to make your pick.
