Did Teddy ever fight

my apologies for my abusive quote aimed at atlas. it got deleted :p

Everyone always complains about Wikipedia because it's user created. This is a case where either Wikipedia is wrong or Teddy Atlas is a liar. I finished his book a few weeks about and he details his amatuer career, which he eventually did have to leave due to back injuries, but after far more than one fight.

Teddy Atlas From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Teddy Atlas (b. July 26, 1956, in Staten Island, New York) is a well-known boxing trainer and fight commentator. Atlas had one amateur fight as a youth but quit due to his scoliosis. He began his career as a trainer under the legendary Cus D'Amato, who trained Floyd Patterson and a young Mike Tyson. Atlas was one of the first to predict that Tyson's character flaws would prevent him from ever being a great champion. He even predicted, a week before the fight, that Tyson would get disqualified in his rematch with Evander Holyfield, which he did. He enjoyed his greatest success as a head trainer with champions Barry McGuigan and Michael Moorer. In 1997, he founded the Dr. Theodore Atlas Foundation to honor the memory of his late father. The Foundation awards scholarships and grants to individuals and organizations. Atlas worked as boxing commentator for NBC's coverage of the Olympic Games in Sydney (2000) and Athens (2004). On May 1st 2006, Atlas' biography, "Atlas: From the Streets to the Ring: A Son's Struggle to Become a Man" was written by Peter Alson. The book covers many different periods of Atlas's life, and compares his position as trainer to a role as a father. Atlas currently serves as commentator on ESPN2's Friday Night Fights and Wednesday Night Fights.
