THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas

Show Notes

Teddy Atlas breaks down the spectacle of Jake Paul vs. Anthony Joshua, recapping why he thought this fight would go more rounds than most people expected. While many anticipate a quick and violent ending from Joshua, Teddy outlines the factors that could extend the fight into deeper rounds — including Joshua’s recent inactivity, the massive ring size, and Joshua’s tendency at times to be a slow starter.

Teddy also reflects on the legendary career of Terence “Bud” Crawford following his retirement announcement. He discusses Crawford’s rare versatility, ring IQ, mental toughness, instincts and ability to dominate across multiple weight classes. Teddy places Crawford among the true modern greats, comparing his résumé, skill set, and dominance to other all-time elite fighters and explaining where Bud fits historically in the pantheon of boxing legends.

Finally, Teddy previews a huge weekend of action from Saudi Arabia, breaking down Naoya Inoue vs. David Picasso and Junto Nakatani vs. Sebastian Reyes. Teddy explains why Inoue’s pressure, power, and precision make him one of the most dangerous fighters in the world, while also noting what Picasso must do to survive and compete. He then turns to Nakatani, highlighting his size, technique, and finishing ability, and explains why Reyes faces an uphill battle against one of boxing’s most complete and dangerous champions.
