Teddy Atlas And LSC's Fist Shake Why I Hate ESPN/PBC

[LittleMacAttack]

Yeah that fist shake comment every round was real annoying. I try and ignore Atlas as much as possible.

I'm usually a defender of Teddy, he's good for the sport, but this was definitely one of his worst nights...dude needed a pack of gum and a sock by round 3.

As for Cruz shaking his right hand, has anyone paid attention to Joseito Lopez? What he does is more bizarre, after he throws a combination he'll bring his right hand down to his waist/ sometimes even behind his back. I've even seen him do that with both his arms, you'd think he made a 3.

I only noticed that rewatching the Ortiz fight a couple of months back. I thought he was adjusting his trunks/cup.

I agree! I also normally like Teddy but I'm going to chalk this up as a bad night for him.. Him with the wrist twitch thing became WAY too excessive. He spent way too much time discussing something that was a non factor in the fight.

[The Hammer]

Teddy is rather ****** and very annoying.

I thought Saturdays show was top notch. Except for the sound issues.

[Tyler_Durden]

Agreed Teddy is one of the most annoying fight commentators of all time.

[bojangles1987]

He was acting like Santa Cruz takes 5 seconds to shake his hand or something. He repeated over and over how it was an opening and Mares should pounce on it because Leo can't throw a punch with it.

Um, no, Teddy. It takes half a second and Santa Cruz can easily ****ing punch you with that glove.

Bet you he doesn't have a meltdown on the next PBC robbery

There hasn't been one yet. In fact, apart from the one draw score the other night they've all been among the best score cards in recent years and consistently well scored.

So far, PBC has done nothing but great stuff for the boxing fans. It's beyond absurd that the only people against seem to be against because of the owners relationship with one boxer.

Some boxing fans (the really ****ing ******* ones) seem as if they'd rather go back to paying $60 for cards that are no better than what we are seeing on PBC, but usually with much ****tier undercards. The fact that there are any fans actively against this and bagging it out just show how pathetically deluded they are and what weak minded sheep they are.

We are getting good free boxing. What is not to like?!? It hasn't even been a slow process getting up to fights that are of a good, high quality. We are seeing great fights already that we'd normally have to pay good money for and still are for other companies!

We just saw Mares/Santa Cruz for free with a good undercard. How is that, on any planet, a bad thing?

Anyway...enough anti-PBC ranting.

It's a tiny habit that didn't have nearly enough time for Mares to react to. It's not like he was dropping his hands in time with his stepping or anything. It was hardly an issue at all. Teddy can be good, but sometimes he just goes off on one, which make no sense and can be very frustrating.
