What do you guys think?

What do you guys think?

He did nothing wrong.

[KittenFlaps]

I will vote "no" once you have the poll up.

There's no reason he should be reprimanded. He is just stating information from a source. I can't say I agree with his doing it,seems kinda unfounded, but that's his job. Journalists and commentators do it all the time. The only difference here is that he said something people don't want to hear.

For what did I miss something last Friday?....Lefty

[ROSS CALIFORNIA]

As far as from what I have seen here, neither side has proven their case. If thats so, it's all about who you want to believe.

Teddy said on air during FNF's the following:

Atlas said that through an unnamed "reliable source", someone from Team Pacquiao had sent an e-mail to Mayweather's camp inquiring about the consequences of their blood testing request. Allegedly, a member of Team Pacquiao had asked Team Mayweather if they could keep things secret to save the integrity of boxing in case Pacquiao is found guilty of doping.

Wow I must have been sleeping when he said that....I stopped watching it intently durning the second fight. Those two guys were horrid and I rather watch a bar fight ESPN has to really step up their game and at least get some prospects fighting on Friday's....Lefty

Yeah, I thought the 1st two fights were terrible myself. He said it between the 1st and 2nd fight.

ESPN gave the card to a start up promoter that didn't have good fighters to put on unfortunately. They should have made him share the undercard with other promoters.

I would let it slide. no one wants Teddy to have another "Donny LaLonde" incident

Oddly enough I think the LaLonde story reveals a lot about the "REAL" Teddy Atlas
