Teddy Atlas picks .... Zab

On ESPN (or ESPN2? not sure) the Frankly Speaking show last night had Teddy on and he picked Zab to win by decision. He expects to see Zab using his jab and foot speed to evade PBF. Bert Sugar and the guy that hosts the show both picked PBF. Bert picked a KO in the 9th, and the host picked a decision win for PBF. I kid you not, they were pimping this fight like it's Ali-Frazier and Hagler-Hearns. The one part of the show that was a let down was where they talked about what has been wrong with boxing and why we don't get enough megafights and the best are not fighting the best. After blaming the networks and promoters, they failed to note that PBF is a part of the problem. This fight should be his crossover fight into the mainstream and recognition by the casual sports fan, but this could have happened at least 2 years ago. Unless the best fight the best, they are not advancing the sport. But they gave PBF a free pass. I guess it's not cool to blast a fighter on the show where they are promoting his next fight, but still, they made their point for anyone that can think it through. EDIT - it was briefly mentioned that the IBF should have vacated the belt after Zab got his ass kicked by Baldomir. They should have taken it to the next level and blasted the corrupt IBF, but again, they were promoting the fight and bit their lip I guess.
