ohhhh..man Teddy Atlas and Povetkin...that sounds good...Teddy Atlas good Trainer..but the fighter needs to show some skills...Its not only on the Trainer its of course on the fighter too...
Teddy is a competent trainer and took Michael Moore to a championship over a very good (at the time) Evander Holyfield. However, Atlas is like some other North American boxing pundits (check out the clown "Dutchy" on TSN) in that he can't seem to stand the fact that eastern European fighters are dominating the heavyweight division. He clearly despises the K brothers and can't help letting it slant his opinions. I hope he has success with Povetkin, the guy seems like a good prospect.
Teddy is a very good trainer and is more than qualified to train Alexander. The only reason the Euro guys are winning right now is because they are bigger than the Americans, and neither have much skill anymore, so the bigger men are winning. 44 year old Evander Holyfield was robbed against Valuev, which shows the current state of the division.
holyfield robbed? this fight was so shitty that no one would have deserved a win really. these 2 clowns should have been banned from boxing for life after that crap fight
You are exactly right. You can't take a title from a "sort of champion" by dancing around him all night. At most it was a draw because neither did anything. At least Valuev kept chasing Holyfield. Chagaev on the other hand actually fought Valuev on the inside and got the better of him in the exchanges.
LMFAO. I have to agree with you! The worst ever fight and these same assholes that criticise Klitschko for his style actually praise Holyfield performance against Valuev? Not one of them said it was a boring fight!
They even criticised Wladimir like hell for beating Ibragimov with 1 hand, while Holyfield lost every round against Ibragimov! Holyfield only threw 1 punch in the Ibragimov fight and fell on the canvas!
They complain about WLAD holding but not about Holyfield: headbutts, grabbing!
when all is said and done, both klitschkos will go down as one of the best heavyweight champs in the history of boxing.these guys are DOMINATING their opponents.
true, holyfield was as close to knocking out valuev as the sun is to the moon. what a disgusting fight. i mean,i ve seen a lot of shit from both holyfield and valuev in the past, but this fucked up fight really stood out
GoldeWC Teddy Atlas is a PROVEN pro trainer man...hes put in plenty of hours and dedicated himself to the sport of boxing with all heart. he respects the game, treats it accordingly and is willing to share his thoughts/ideas with others..what are you talkin about!
Vitali Klitschko, "Unlike the American technique-which tends to go for the close-up, with uppercuts and body blows-Soviet trainers taught athletes to be more mobile and to specialize in long-distance fighting, jabs and straights. Soviet trainers also taught a more strategic, defense-oriented version of the sport than their American counterparts, focusing on analyzing the opponent and wearing him down." Trainers and commentators like Teddy Atlas don't get it. Poor poor Povetkin.
Look at Teddy. He is in much pain that a Eastern European is the baddest man on the planet. I think the game has passed Atlas by. He predicts every fight wrong whenever a euro fighter fights. In a nutshell, Atlas sucks as a commentator.
teddy atlas is coo haha

Teddy Atlas is a great trainer. It is because of him and only because of him that Michael Moorer defeated Evander "The Real Deal" Holyfield.

Just watch the other commentator face when Teddy Atlas says: 'Just the same stuff, there's not many heavyweights'
Also remember that the sound of this is video is not going with the video, it's about 0.5secs behind!!

Atlas is A PEACE OF SHIT !!! Povetkin will get destroyed badly by Klitschko. He will lose every single round the same way as Chagaev did.
