TEDDY ATLAS HINTS THAT PACQUIAO'S MOVEMENT AND ANGLES MIGHT GIVE MAYWEATHER PROBLEMS
"You have to have a little bit of a decoy, a little misdirection, and that misdirection was the reason the right hand landed in the second round. Mosley threw a jab to the body and then bang, came upstairs with the right hand. A little misdirection, a little trickery, and you're able to nail a real good defensive fighter like Mayweather," stated ESPN boxing analyst Teddy Atlas as he shared his thoughts on Floyd Mayweather's unanimous decision victory over Shane Mosley this past weekend. As he broke down the fight, Atlas hinted that there are indeed some flaws in Mayweather's game that can be exploited. "There are some things to gain if you're a future opponent or if you're Mr. Pacquiao getting ready to fight Mr. Mayweather," he added. Check out what else he had to say about the fight, the performances of both fighters, Shane Mosley's future plans and much more.
Teddy Atlas also said Marquez would present problems for Mayweather.
The basis of his argument was basically that Marquez gave Pacquiao problems therefore he would give Floyd problems. Ignoring the fact that styles make fights and Floyd had significant physical and technical advantages over Marquez.
again Floyd is just judged on a different level than anyone else in boxing. A far different level. What Atlas said was right but Shane only landed it one time the whole fight. Its not like you are going to use trickery on Floyd the whole fight and expect to win. If Teddy is talking about a one punch KO then maybe but if he thinks Pac is just going to go 12 rounds beating Floyd with trickery & angles then he's kidding himself.
Floyd's D is so good that anytime he takes a big shot, thats all anyone remembers and then they talk non stop about "what if so & so landed that shot". Meanwhile, none of those guys ever won a single round again after the first 4 and in most cases it was after 2. Pac has to knock Floyd out early. He can catch Floyd while he's cold and he can catch Floyd while he's not adjusted to the southpaw style. After that he has no chance.
He either has to stop him early or hurt him so bad to where it lingers for a long time like Forrest did Mosley in there 1st fight. Knock him out or hurt him to where he never fully recovers. If you dont then he's going to clown Pac the rest of the way. If he's winning from the jump then its over
You are spitting that truth.

Teddy Atlas has the luxury of being wrong and nobody will care - Most, if not always he is wrong ... But since nobody cares what this guys says, it doesn't get the press it deserves.
What is this guys claim to fame anyway?
His claim to fame was that he was an understudy for Cus D'amato and trained Tyson and Michael Moorer.
