ESPN Suspends Teddy Atlas For One Week

[rj_ct]

atlas is it the man. he cares about the well-being of the fighters.

teddy should go to showtime and they should get rid of that ******ed, rambling, ****ing idiot that is al bernstein (dude is so unknowledgeable and he wants to see fights go until 1 fighter is dead).

Teddy Atlas is the reason everyone watches ESPN

Lets just hope that Joe Tessitore holds his boy down with a shout-out on live tv. C'mon Joe, lets hear an open shout of respect for Teddy, one half of the best broadcast duo in the game. Teddy beats Emanuel Steward or Lennox Lewis for top analyst, even though those cats work for the big $ network.

[Nwahs !!]

Teddy Atlas should be viewed as a hero in the boxing world.

The guy actually ****ing gives a **** about the sport. He is a champion of honesty, and is compassionate towards fighters.

Credible sources have informed BoxingScene.com that Teddy Atlas has been suspended for one-week by ESPN. While the reasoning has not been confirmed, it doesn't take a genius to figure the situation out. On January 18, I wrote a report with respect to a verbal confrontation which took place between Atlas, ringside analyst for ESPN's Friday Night Fight Series, and the network's boxing program director, Doug Loughrey.

This is excellent journalism. Nice. ^

Interesting situation, no doubt.

This is awful. Teddy is to ESPN what Bob Barker was to The Price Is Right. ESPN had better clean house.

[Sweet Pea]

Teddy is one of the good guys in boxing and he has obvious integrity.

Give'm hell, Teddy.
