That might be the most ridiculous thing I've read since Xaduboxer got banned.Gatti did very well in the first round against mayweather until the stupid ref said something to distract gatti and floyd hit him with two cheap shots and knocked him down. Floyd was holding gatti's head down with his forearm, gatti was expecting the ref to break them up, the ref yells something unintelligible at the fighters, mayweathers takes his forearm off the back of gatti's kneck and lets him up, gatti looks at the ref to see what if he is going to break them up, floyd throws a couple cheap shots while gattti was looking at the ref to see what the hell the ref was going to do about the illegal tactics. Gatti was not the same for the rest of the fight and a stupid ref wrecked another potentially good fight. There was a major speed difference but gatti was doing very good defensively in the first round until the ref screwed things up.I'd just like to say its a mystery to me, when people say Arturo Gatti was shot to pieces. Infact people were saying he never looked better, with his new and improved boxing skills. And he was coming off some very good wins against, Micky Ward 2x, Leonard Dorin, Jesse James Leija, Giancula Branco.Floyd Mayweather 140 and above.
Gatti - Shot after wars with Ward, a prime Oscar battered him anyway, everyone with a brain knew he would be outboxed.
Mitchell - Kostya battered him twice in and out of his prime, took Floyd twice as long to get an even older version out of there
Zab Judah - Put in his place by world class guys. Tszyu knocked him out in two rounds when in his absolute prime and Cotto took him to bits, he quit againsed Clottey. Even the late, great Baldomir managed to beat him, which is when Floyd decided to fight himTook Floyd the distance....
Baldomir - Should I fucking bother really?
Oscar - Past it and was losing as much as winning (ideal) Floyd hardly won in an impressive fashion either, Forbes gave him a harder fight for fucks sake.
Ricky Hatton - Never looked good at Welter and the Collazo took a lot out of him, the fight showed how beatable he was as many thought he lost the fight againsed Collazo. Floyd decides to fight him two fights later.
Now what? Tell me what is wrong with ANY of that.
I bet you say the media gave them all a chance (like they are supposed to do) or talk about betting odds or some crap. What else can you do or say? Can't wait to find out
And i think its reaching to try and say Steve Forbes, gave ODLH a tougher fight. He won 3 rounds at max.
