Teddy, why don't you just STFU.

Teddy is as passionate as they come and for DECADES has called for boxing oversight from Congress. So while you sit there dismissive maybe you should just STFU and move along. Teddy has forgotten more in boxing than you’ll even begin to know.

Cryan Garcia will do very well and has a chance to win.

Mike Tyson made a career out of acting out

The fact that Ryan has no defense, but that doofus shoulder roll, is whats going to get him hurt.

Atlas is right... the kid is floating out there in the ozone and needs to be reeled back in to reality.
He already has way too big of an ego, we know that, so it isn't a stretch for him to go off the deep
end with drugs, liquor, and a likely personality flaw that will probably get worse with age. Best to
check it now before he steps into a few monster punches that would rearrange some brain cells.

Not by feather-fisted Haney.

Ryan's behavior I think is a reflection of a young impressionable kid not being taken care of by the people around him. He is a good person, no doubt about that, but a bit overwhelmed with the moment, and the fact that as of now he is not up to the mark, the pressure of losing, the potential humiliation, that's causing serious anxiety and fear. He does not fear Haney, he fears losing. Status is everything to him, he is a narcissist, anything that bruises his ego is the end of the world. Handling fame and fortune can be more difficult than attaining it.
