Atlas's fighter fought Holyfield. I'm sure he'd heard Holyfield's name numerous times, and he still can't pronounce it right? On the other hand, I always laughed at Manny saying e-light.
Interestingly, in Australia, his name is in fact pronounced, "Holly-field." Also, on the other side of that coin, the American pronunciation for David Tua's surname is off, & considered in Tua's homeland to be a North American colloquialism. In New Zealand & Australia, a, 't' & 'u' placed together produce a, "ch" sound --- hence, David Chewa.
"Dela Hoya" is 1 of the Most RECOGNIZED, PRINTED & UTTERED Names in the History of Boxing...Moreso, "Dela Hoya" is Still Very Much RELEVANT To this Very Day... Not 1nce has REED EVER Heard ANY Other Boxing Person MISpronounce "Dela Hoya", Except for Teddy Atlas...It's Almost as if he Does it to B a PRICK or Something... Even in Conversation, Tessitore &/or Kinney will Say it CORRECTLY, yet Atlas will STILL Butcher it... REED:hammert:

"VIT-ALLY" and "Vie-Tally" when in fact it is actually pronounced "Witally" That is forgiveable. But I hate it when Tarver talks about somebody called "Mar-Kwez". I
It's actually more Veetalee with the emphasis on the first syllable at least that's how Wladimir says it. Definitely nothing with a double l lÃke alley more like muhammad ALI
