It's not that he picks the underdog, he just really hates the Klitschkos.
He used to always pick Mayweather against all his opponents.
last night he stated during the mainevent when cley hurt his hand he said boxers are in the hurt buisness & should suck it up & finish the fight.fix & worry about the injury after the fight.he doesn't like guys quoting during fights.vitali,peter,etc.it's not just vitali it's anyone who quits because of injury.he's an old hardass trainer who is demanding & hard to please.
Teddy just said that hes going with Chagaev. He really likes the underdog doesn't he.
If I went up against Klits Teddy would pick me.. He hates the Wlad THAT much..
I am 5'7'' 150lbs BTW..
Yes he did.
He picked Peter, Byrd, Brock, Austin, Brewster, Ibragimov, Thompson, Rahman and now Chagaev.
At least Chagaev has a chance, but Teddy's picking Austin and Rahman was ridiculous.
How embarrassing. Teddy sure knows the sport, but it is hard to take him seriously when you realize how biased he is.
Teddy does like the underdogs, but his thing with picking againsst Wlad is getting pretty out there, although if he is going to pick against Wlad on the Thompson and especially the Rahman fight it only makes sence that he would pick Chagaev who is a lot better then those two.
Didnt Teddy also pick Ray Austin over Klitschko?

I think Teddy often likes to go against the grain just to say "I told you so" when he gets the odd prediction right. Perhaps he thinks it'll make him appear more knowledgeable or something.
