Teddy is harsh and a great pep talker. I'm an older amateur boxer 42 years old with USA boxing as where I obtain my license. I'm a Paramedic-Firefighter Captain, so I've been fighting since I was 17. 51-1 again amateur boxing gents. I would have loved Teddy as a trainer. I got 3 fights left this year and I'm done.
My thoughts with Teddy and Andy working together are "almost" perfect. 1. He will be good as he implements the peek a boo defense. 2. Andy has an extraordinary left hook (like Mike Tyson) and is quick with it 3. Great chin to take risks while cutting off the ring. 4. Teddy will MAKE Andy do a crap load of road work and back pedaling in the ring with Plyos. 5. Andy will get pushed, what people don't know is Andy is totally in love with his girlfriend, she is fine as well. Though he will fix/address that issue with Andy probably before he even agrees to train Andy. I believe Andy knows this, in addition hopefully Andy will come clean with a personal issue he has which again Atlas can help to a degree, the rest is up to Ruiz to privately take care of.
Lastly, Andy is not 6"2' he is 5"11'.. I'm a 5"10' and we basically have seen each other eye to eye in our boxing flats. Just look when canelo went to Andy's dressing room in Saudi Arabia. The height comparison, then how Pacheco towered over Andy...so my point is Mike Tyson was never 5"11 1/2. He is 5"9 close to 5"10'. Teddy is great with fighters that can mimic Tysons style.I trained at the same gym with Andy in Norwalk, California. It kinda bothers me how Andy does lie, but the kid is gifted and he arrogantly knows he is, as to why since he was 19 he always said he will be in shape with a new physique. He is over confident as a boxer who loves to trade but that doesn't mean he has the discipline. If he truly allows Teddy to train him, then he better be prepared. I believe it will really help Andy. A bit off topic I also believe Freddy Roach helps Wilder. Though Wilder is just to darn loyal to his team. Wilder could have saved himself if he threw some uppercuts to throw off Fury, he has only against Chris Arreola and to finish Ortiz in their first fight. Freddy will fix that issue. It bothers me as a fan and a student of the sweet science. Hell a straight right to the body can be in his arsenal but doesn't. Why? Smh
Anyhow thanks for listening on strictly my opinion. An interview with myself and ESNews ..."reporting" lol.
God Bless, be safe out there everyone!!

The peekaboo style is very energy intensive. Not a good fit for Andy unless he develops God-like discipline all of a sudden.Comment
