Teddy might have said F u c k it a few years ago and just tried to purposely pick the losers. I bet they all give him **** over at ESPN about it. Brian Kenny probably has a difficult time keeping his face straight after, "Teddy, who do you like in this fight?" Why do you think Brian Kenny's face looks purple after Teddy is done giving his analysis. It aint your TV.
He scores fights poorly too...and his commentary is annoyingly repetitive. He's phony in the way he pretends to want the best for boxing and boxers, while at the same time hurting the popularity of the sport by being such an idiot on TV.
Atlas is a loser. He comes from an affluent family, yet ended up in jail as a teenager. He had an opportunity to be an assistant to the best boxing trainer of all time (and work with a great prospect called Mike Tyson), yet he screwed up and got fired after a couple of months.
He had no success as a boxing trainer except for one fight with Michael Moorer, who succeeded DESPITE Atlas, not because of him. He didn't do Michael Grant or the others no good. Steward succeeded with Wladimir, a heavyweight with natural advantages but not the greatest chin, but Atlas failed with Michael Grant.
Teddy Atlas always screws up. He sucks, but not on purpose.
He's pretty consistent on picking winners for the main events of friday night fights. I have no clue how he can be so consitent with those but be so consistently wrong on picking winners for big fights.

could be in small fight he is not as bias as in big fights.
He has said countless times that he likes to go with the underdog. I'm sure if he was betting money on it he would have picked the right guy. He hasn't lost his job for a reason guys, the man knows boxing.
