| 0:00.0 | Hi everyone, welcome to the fight with Teddy Atlas. I'm Teddy Atlas III and joined as always by Boxing Hall of Famer. My man, my father, Teddy Atlas. How you doing, bud? |
| 0:14.1 | I'm doing good. I'm doing good, but how hot is it there in Las Vegas now? I mean, it's starting to warm up probably. Yeah, |
| 0:22.8 | it's not hot enough to make me take off my hoodie. But it's cooler right now, to be honest. |
| 0:30.4 | We're probably in the 70s. This morning I took a little teddy to the park. It was about 60, |

| 1:28.5 | but it felt like we did an hour. |
| 1:32.0 | I mean, the time kind of went fast of Q&A. |
| 1:35.4 | We had a nice community chat |
| 1:38.4 | with all the members of the ropes. |
| 1:41.6 | It was really enjoyable. |
| 1:43.3 | We touched on a lot of... I don't know if you're |
| 1:46.8 | going to get some of it up for everybody, or if you're going to clip it, or you're going to put it |
