WOW, they shoulda' stopped this...

That sucks though I always enjoyed watching your analysis on ESPN, I don't mind Teddy though especially after the fights as I think that suits him a bit more than predicting what will happean. They told me I will be back on for the next one... we'll see :)

What they did was certainly beyond the line, but I think it was effective because to me it looks like they got to them responding to this garbage. I can't fault anyone saying anything about what they did but to me this is boxing not ballet I expect the line to be crossed from time to time. I am a big believer in you should never let someone see you sweat especially when someone is trying to sweat you, I can't fault Roach because when it gets made personal it is hard to react in a way that is basically turning the other cheek (especially for a fighter) but he should have let others make a big deal about it (his Dr., his friends, Micheal J. Fox, whatever the national Parkinsons organization is).

That's BS. They should pair Atlas with a boxing guy. yea...I mean, even if it isnt me...just saying that I think it would be MUCH more interesting to have a little back and forth dialogue between two "boxing guys"...Teddy and myself or Teddy and someone else...

It's sad that so many people try to rationalize what Margarito and Rios did as okay. There's a big difference between making fun of someone's chosen actions and making fun of someone's disability that they have no control over. Saying that Roach is a **** trainer or that Margarito is a cheater are both fair game in my view. They may not be nice things to say or even true but at least the person is being criticized for their actions.

I would have had the opportunity presented itself but I just found out less than an hour ago that I am NOT doing the show afterall...not sure what happened behind the scenes but I was originally told that Teddy was going to do SportsCenter and I was going to be down the hall at ESPNNews, they said they were considering having us on air together to discuss the fight...they called me just a little while ago, though, and left a message saying that they will just have Teddy do everything since he is their lead guy, etc etc... That's BS. They should pair Atlas with a boxing guy.

Hey Ice, picked up 'Boxing News' on my travels today and read your piece on Micky Ward. Great stuff. Hey, Star, I havent seen it yet but you are now the second person today to tell me that! Thanks, my man...my copy usually comes in from the UK by Tuesday...

Whats your prediction on the Pac vs Marg fight? and dont give me the run around :) If I had only a dollar to bet I go with Pacman...either Margo is going to be too relentless and aggressive and land some VICIOUS uppercuts to the body and head on the way to a beat down or...Pacman is going to be as fast as lightning (feet and hands) and will pick AM off from a distance all night...

Not saying it was classy but its just some trash talk and its being taken entirely too seriously. how about if someone referred to a boxers mentally retarded son in a nasty way or impersonated the son on air..would THAT fall under "trash talk", too???

joe frazier said he did that to ali, ali called frazier an uncle tom during a very volatile time. If u want to show class in a classless arena, amongst warfare then that is your own personal choice, but don't expect your adversary to do that too. Insults and other classless behavior come with the warfare of the sport. If you can't deal with it, then don't box! im pumped up !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

iceman scully telling it like it is. will you address this issue during your ESPNEWS post-fight coverage?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DL4mPeN4txg <<< AMAZING that Margarito would make fun of Freddy in this fashion...AMAZING that Robert Garcia would do this...amazing that Brandon Rios would make his first foray into the public conciousness via 24/7 in a way that would make most fans HOPE FOR HIM TO GET BRUTALLY KO'd should he ever make it anywhere in this game...someone should have stepped in and destroyed this taped evidence, stopped it before it made it on to world wide TV... Poor taste from Team Margarito and Sechback, he should have known better and left it on the cutting room floor rather than cashing in on a controvercial offensive moment captured on tape.

For a crime Margarito committed as a fighter and in the ring ^^^This.. good post. Shocking how some can't differentiate the two. One was caught cheating red handed.. the other is suffering from a disease that affects other people (non-boxers/boxers).

Everyone who defends that kind of attitude is a ****ing ignorant just like that retarded Rios. Oh, the irony.

saying he should be in jail for attempted murder is pretty personal For a crime Margarito committed as a fighter and in the ring

Well let's see. Freddie hit'em with "I've seen your last two fights" and smirked for the cameras. Silence from Team Margo. Manny mocks Margo by pretending not to look at his hand while it's being wrapped. Silence from Team Margo. Then Freddie blurts out: "He knew about the handwraps. Who's he kidding?" Team Margo breaks their silence when the manager blurts out: "Shall we talk about drug testing?" Freddie get's all fidgety. So far so good. But it's not enough. So Freddie blurts out that Manny will take him out in 8 or 9 rounds. Silence from Team Margo. Antonio, Garcia, and Rios mock Freddie's condition. All hell breaks loose. You do realize why all hell broke loose then, correct? Everything you mentioned was boxing related up until the Parkinsons comment.

Shane beating this cheating puto vid never gets old.this is your Mexican champ? Lol. Plaster b'itch boy
