Did ya see Gatti nail him

Yep...but Gatti aint Baldo...
Comparing apples like that...did you see how long it took Baldo to stop Gatti?
Watch Mayweather vs Gatti...there's about a 2-2.5 round gap there.
Anyone that's followed Floyd's career knows about his 24 knockouts (or techy-knockouts) & how unpleasantly painful they appear to be. I'd rather get blasted out by a few hard shots than beaten & peppered out by punch after punch on the button from Floyd.
Gatti didn't appear to carry any of his power up with him when he rose...Floyd's abilities to stop a man come from repetitively accurate combinations. Power won't be the factor in this fight.
Never beg a 40 dollar hooker...specially after she's just turned down your mom's credit card!!
