      I really used to like Atlas and his no bull**** style, but his obvious hate for the Klits is turning me off. He needs to understand there is a difference between who you want to win and who you think will win. Hes suppoosed to be a pro and he makes himself look like a jackass.

              The man's hatred for the Klitschkos has affected his ability to think clearly about boxing.
              True about Atlas being a moron, but Wladdy had a dead man in there tonight and it took him ten rounds to finish him off.

              I used to root for him but after todays performance, I think he is what he is, a mediocre heavyweight in an awful era.
              Any B level fighters from the past k.o him.

                Atlas intentionally picks the underdog. It's what he does. If everyone is picking Fighter A to win, he'll intentionally pick Fighter B and try and explain how Fighter B could win.

                It's like how he picked Pac to beat De La Hoya (Pac=underdog), yet picked Hatton to beat Pac (Hatton=underdog). He even said after the Hatton fight that he kinda knew Pac would win but everyone was picking Pac so he wanted to explain how Hatton could win.

                It's just what he does, he doesn't care if he's wrong or right. I'm sure if someone put a gun to his head and said make sure you pick the guy who will win or I'll kill you, he would make better picks, but he's just trying to mix things up.

                  Ahem... that is a positive way of looking at Teddy Atlas. I guess every time he picks someone to beat Wlad, he really means the other way around.

                    Teddy Atlas berated Vitali for brutally beating Gomez.... He would have gone nuts over Wlad's domination of Chagaev...
                    Yes, Teddy would have been upset at seeing Wladimir's dominating performance.

                      Atlas has really lost his credibility after this one. We should collectively send the guy some hate mail. What a f.ucking buffoon this guy is...

                      Also, the Flores guys did a good job commentating and should be brought in more often..
