News about Teddy Atlas

According to boxing legend Teddy Atlas, Jake Paul may have made a mistake in joining Mike Tyson in the ring if their match does not have a WWE-style 'agreed' ending. Paul, 27, caused outrage earlier this month when he revealed that he would face Tyson, 57, in a controversial mismatch of ages live on Netflix in July. Despite his fame as one of the greatest heavyweights of all time, the prospect of 'Iron' Mike's returning from the ropes just after his 58th birthday to face a fledgling professional boxer 30 years his junior was met with skepticism in both the boxing and sporting industries alike.

Judge CJ Ross may have been jailed for incorrectly judging Floyd Mayweather against Canelo Alvarez a draw back in 2013. Ross submitted a 114-114 scorecard in a competition that Mayweather looked to have comfortably won, despite judges Craig Metcalfe and Dave Moretti's adoration of the term 'TBE's'. Ross came under intense scrutiny for her scoring, and she informed the Nevada State Athletic Commission that she will no longer be involved in the immediate aftermath. She and Duane Ford awarded Timothy Bradley a tense split-decision victory over Manny Pacquiao one year ago when she and her brother were involved in another scoring fiasco. The final straw for legendary trainer Atlas, Ross' judging during Mayweather's 45th professional outing was the final straw.

As the 28-year-old prepares for what may be a do-or-die match against undefeated world champion Devin Haney, his American boxing hero Teddy Atlas (left) believes Aussie lightweight George Kambosos (right) will do better with the underdog tag, which may put an end to his career. Kambosos Jr, the 66-year-old trainer and commentator, was simply outclassed in his title match against Haney in Melbourne, but he will face Haney in his second crack on October 16.
