Comments Thread For: Teddy Atlas on Crawford-Khan: It's Not Good For Boxing or ESPN

What is Atlas talking about? Guy is an idiot. Lol Atlas has forgotten more about boxing history, ring IQ, training and coaching champions than you will in any of these categories in your entire lifetime

Kinda funny... also kinda crazy how atlas forgot more about boxing than you pretend to know Hey! Is this Timothy Bradley? Stop trolling and work on your grammar! PS: I know more about Teddy then he does! 1) location location location 2) fight tall 3) walking in a bad neighborhood 4) take out some air in those tires 5) pressure busts pipes

I don't think Khan quit. He was still in there before the punch. It wasn't like he was on his last legs. He's been in worse condition against Maidana. People criticise but no one knows what he felt or what damage that punch did. He also came out for the press conference after the fight which most fighters duck. The truth is Crawford took an easy fight against a big name (who had been retired for 2 years and hadn't beaten a top-level fighter for years). It backfired on him. He should be fighting at a higher level than that.

I'm feeling bad, because I laugh at our English cousins for filling stadiums on cold nights. This PPV thingy is a fat man's dream. $75 is less than gas, parking, tickets, and refreshments, but the fights still need to improve.

Putting on such a card on ppv is bad for boxing

Nobody cares what the Loma loving shill says anymore.

He has a point. I don’t remember the last time a big boxing match was a combination of a good fight that lived up to the hype along with an ending that didn’t put people off. Matchmakers need to be careful from here on out.....fights like last night have a way of alienating the casuals and even putting off the fans Among big time PPV level fights - Wilder-Fury in the last six months but other than that I guess Joshua-Klitschko which was two years ago?

Khan has been kod and hurt so many times, his mouth is up by his ear, it looks like he's talking out of the side of his neck. How anybody thought they were going to get $75 worth out of this is beyond me.

I was totally confused. What rule does it apply? If there was a blow under the referee, he should immediately decree and tell him, without haste, that he had 5 minutes to recover. After 5 minutes to check if Khan could continue ... he should automatically take 2 points to Khan in the card for the low blow, so he matches things ... then, if Khan can not continue after 5 minutes for the " magnitude "of the blow, then stop the fight and as there were 4 full rounds go to the cards ... the result 48-46 twice and 47-47 ... winner Crawford by majority decision ... that should happen. ...! But if before the end of the 5 minutes Khan decides that he can not continue, without having done it or anything, then the fighter abandoned the fight so a technical ko should be decreed in favor of Crawford due to abandonment of Khan ..... If you have 5 minutes to recover, you should have taken them and tried to continue ... if you could not legitimately. Well, if it was less than 4 rounds to decree the fight ... this is my understanding ... I just clarified here ... Crawford hit an unintentional low blow, had to pay with two points for it (if been intentional then disqualified). So with those two points deducted they matched the thing, compensating Khan for Crawford's mistake ... and after two minutes things Khan was that he had to see if he could continue or not, not before! For doing it before lost by abandonment. I think this was all that happened, although I'm not sure if the rule as I applied it is like this ..... Crawford forget Khan ... Arum, do not throw stones at Haymon ... Haymon does not need Crawford ..... can make a tournament between Paquiao, - Thurman, Garcia-Porter II, with Spence facing the winners in some super fights .... and there goes the best pound for pound, and Crawford is exposed to continue fighting with jr. inflated welter or mediocre welters .... with the risk that people get tired of it or lose with any of these .... or that in the end, have to negotiate a 55-45 in favor of Spence or other of those involved who would have defeated Spence ... Arum, you look pretty ...

"water in the basement"... one of 5 expressions used endlessly by Senile Teddy. Kinda funny... also kinda crazy how atlas forgot more about boxing than you pretend to know

Teddy isn't good for Boxing or ESPN imo. Your opinion has the intrinsic value of used bathroom tissue

Don't worry Teddy, I don't think anyone actually paid for the ppv and if they did...it's a learning experience.

no way was that low blow accidental

Amir king of scam.:dunno::moon:

So....which fighters have you trained? How many champs have you brought to the podium? You sound like a retard. I trained your moma :dance:

They had to find a controversial way to end the night of below standard boxing. We'll spend more time talking about the way it ended than if Khan got KTFO. Let's face it Crawford could've ended after the first KD. Khan was done then. The best fight of the night was Stevenson and he got booed by the fans.

Closeups show that Khan was clearly hit on the leg. that's not going to be mentioned much but it does look more like a leg shot than a shot to the balls. Either way, khan clearly wanted out of that ring and found an excuse to make that happen before he ended up taking any more of a beat down.

He pulled a Kovalev:grr: Hey, f a g let me guess, you have a pedigree far and away much bigger than Pac Man, Kovalev and Atlas. You've won titles in 43 different weight classes from embryo to fat f u c k. Your mouth is way too big and I bet you would get hit in it a lot if you climbed out your bedroom window and went out into the public. Luckily mommy grounded you for life for touching dog d i c k s inappropriately. Get a life. You are a HATER and a FANBOY. You are even way too stupid for a casual.
