    Moorer is the one who says this a lot of times.
    Holyfield fought a way better fight in the rematch.

    Moorer still showed way more heart in the rematch than he did with the "master motivator" Atlas, whom he didn't even listen to and then proceeded to sleep walk in the ring after Atlas yelled at him.

    Moorer's best work was with Manny Steward.

There is no doubt in my mind that if atlas had the chance he would kill povetkin and his family because povetkin is russian so imo i hope he goes back to america, because he is not only a threat to ruin povetkins career but also a threat to povetkins life.
            I was thinking the same. You're right, Atlas absolutely hates Europeans and is deeply disturbed by the domination of the heavyweight division by fighters from Eastern Europe. He might slip him Povetkin a drug that will permanently damage him, or try to infect him with a virus.

            Atlas is mentally unstable. He once held a gun to a 15 year old Mike Tyson's head and fired it an inch away from his skull. He went with a gun after Donny Lalonde with intentions of shooting and killing him.

            He reminds me of Phil Spector, who eventually did shoot and kill somebody and in now in prison.

                  I get the impression that the guy was speaking of Atlas's hate of Eastern Euros in general, saying that the Russian's around Povetkin should tar ....

                    Nice. Looks like Povetkin is giving Atlas quite a workout. He's gonna make an old man outta him. I always liked Povetkin's olympic style. He loves the three punch combo, (1,2,1)

                      I agree with you to a certain extent. But, it's more than just emotional support. Roach for example, there's a reason why he has been one of the most sought after trainers for almost a good two decades now.

                      Same goes for Nacho, there's a reason why their success rates are much higher than the rest of the field. I mean, if it's just about emotional support, I can get that from my mom, lol.

                      How about coming up with a great gameplan. Sure, anyone can come up with a plan. Nacho and Roach are just shrewd when it comes to seeing the "big picture"
