    I wonder if they're gonna cut the fight off for college football.

    No one wanted to see Rigo vs Agbeko. Horrible fight to make, especially as the main event. What a stupid move that was.
    And i fi remember correctly, there was another bigger fight on SHO that night.

    They probably will cut the fight for football, or women's tennism perhaps ice skating?

    Teddy Atlas was cut from calling the fight because he told the truth about the Pac/Horn robbery and told the truth about Bob Bennett's favorite judge Byrd who is still judging fights! The truth in boxing is like a cross to a vampire!

    What I really like to know is who Teddy favors, so I can bet on the other guy.
    Don't want him to call the fight anyway.

    womens tennis, college football, and ice skating are all more popular in the united states than bantamweight (or whatever they are) boxing.

    Canelo didn't get a gift decision. And Loma Rigo isn't the type of fight where we have to worry about a robbery.

    Teddy is a little better than a rank amateur analyst and shows far too much bias for the overrated Loma. I'm glad ESPN did what they did.

    Arum probably didn't want him on the telecast.

    What reason did they give? Conflict of interest? Sexual molestation? Halitosis?

    You nailed it. Atlas is okay for 1-3 minutes on the post-fight analysis, but please keep his bais out of the pre-fight or predictions!

    Teddy is a horrible ambassador for the sport... people new to boxing who tune in and get that old stupid **** repeating himself and trying to be clever but saying stupid **** will tune out of boxing.

    Boxing needs a salesman who get's people excited. Call the fight, give some color.. don't crap on the sport.

    Also Horn beat Pac legit.. Teddy was full of it. Canelo v GGG was closer than Teddy thought. His outrage is either fake, or he has early onset dementia or is punch drunk from whatever happened to his face.
