Comments Thread For: Teddy Atlas Confirms Removal, Will No Longer Call ESPN Fights

[Code Red]

After the horrible way he called the Pac-Horn fight he needed to be removed. Glad to see ESPN using their good senses

Just take him off the fights but you can't get rid of someone who been here 21 years because of what happened in 2 fights.
Boooooo.

Teddy popping off was annoying at times but the blow by blow and color commentary on the loma/rigo broadcast only dampened down an overall dreary/mismatched affair. From the main event down thru the undercard. Atlas waded into boxing politics alot but lent alot of hardcore energy to the matches he commentated on. On a side note, I catch you sniffing around my crates again, anyway, who the hell gets stripped of his title for going up in weight? That english dude cant even claim a defense because the challenger, who he beat, came in two pounds over weight. What the heck does boxing have against Rigo and cuban boxers? These guys are up against alot on the business end of the sport.

Their loss!!!
At least he is not leaving because of xxxual improprieties which has become the norm of late!!!!

Atlas > Kriegel

wtf ESPN

Starting to think Arum got him off for the Ramirez vs Reed post fight rant. It did somewhat diminish an amazing performance from Ramirez and created a controversy that wasn't even suppose to be a controversy. Reed was DONE IMO but Teddy made it seem like Reed was robbed or something.

Still a Teddy Fan love his honesty but he was NOT Removed for being bias because they was still bias to Loma without him.

Pretty soon there will be nothing but transgenders and gay men on the air. Damn man, this is sad. And if you don't like Teddy Atlas, who was one of the last, true telling boxing analysts then you are the problem.

good he was annoying

This is bull****. And the only way to get him back is for people to put pressure on the network. But we can’t get enough people to do it.

I dont know what round it happens but its during this fight that Atlas starts talking crazy again:
