you don't see them posting in here because they know your a lost cause.. they could show you as many facts as possible you will continue to fool yourself and believe what you want.
you don't watch boxing man.. and your not a fan of the sport just Mayweather..
That's why you can't take me up on the offer of not posting bout Mayweather for a week or two because you don't know anything else.Comment

I just want people to prove with FACTS and Numbers, and History
Their Arguement, I dont want Opinions like "Gatti was exciting" therefore he was the biggest draw...
Because if that were truth his exciting style would have gotten him a P.P.V with Oscar..
I just want people to prove with FACTS and Numbers, and History
Thier Point..!!
And Because all I see people doing is giving their opinions with no arguments..
proven with Numbers, or History..!!
Gatti was then known by those fights with ward that contained rock em sockem robot elements to them. This appealed to the Joe Blow Idaho fan, they then knew the name Gatti.
Floyd was not a household name. Gatti was, after teh ward fights that happen after He fought Oscar.Comment

Fact- Oscar fought gatti before the Gatti ward trilogy.
Gatti was then known by those fights with ward that contained rock em sockem robot elements to them. This appealed to the Joe Blow Idaho fan, they then knew the name Gatti.
Floyd was not a household name. Gatti was, after teh ward fights that happen after He fought Oscar.
and that was The De la Hoya who was now a P.P.V star. that just came off a P.P.V's
Felix Trinidad (9/99) 1.4 million buys
Shane Mosley (6/00) 590,000 buys
Ike Quartey ( 2/99) 570,000 buys
Pernell Whitaker (4/97) 720,000 buys
Julio Cesar Chavez II ( 9/98) 525,000 buys
Genaro Hernandez (9/95) 220,000 buys
Rafael Ruelas (5/95) 330,000 buys
Wilfredo Rivera (12/97) 240,000 buys
You Mean to tell me Artro Gatti wasnt popular enough to even get a P.P.V with the Most Popular Fighter in boxing ( Oscar De la Hoya)..??
after Oscar have became the face of boxing...!!
You mean to tell me that Wilfredo Rivera,Rafael Ruelas,Genaro Hernandez,Ike Quartey,Miguel Angel Gonzalez, all had enough drawing power to make their Fight with Oscar a P.P.V fight but Gatti Didnt...??
You dont see the problem, Gatti was and is, and alway been the Greatest Club Fighter of all time, but he didnt have the Appeal outside the club(New Jersey). He was not a P.P.V headline fighter before or After the Floyd Fight. For a Reason, it is because he is a New Jersey Local. Not saying he only fights in New Jersey, but his big fights are only in New Jersey. and the Only big fight he didnt have in New Jersey was against Oscar and you see he didnt have big draw in Vegas to even get the fight on P.P.V
So how was he the headliner for the Floyd Fight
When Floyd was more Accomplish, higher rank, and had been in bigger fights.
If you cant get on P.P.V in one of the 3 epic fights with Micky Ward, one in which was (Fight of the Year) then you should know what your drawing power really is.
He wasnt Even a big enough Draw to get P.P.V with the P.P.V King, but now he was the reason why the fight between Him vs. PBF was the success it was..?? WTF
Gatti never once proved before or after that he had the drawing power to pull in a P.P.V audience.. But when he fights Floyd "He was the P.P.V draw" - WTF
Gatti only draw come from the people in New Jersey who came to see him fight Floyd, everybody outside of New Jersey bought the Fight to see Floyd fight. Because they wanted to see him fight, but this time they had to pay.
The truth of the matter is that was both of their 1st P.P.V in which the focus was that Gatti was Fighting Mayweather..Not Mayweather fighting Gatti..
The fact of the matter is that Bob Arum knew that Gatti would be the perfect opponent for Floyd to showcase his skills to make him more Exciting Against a popular Club Fighter...On his First P.P.V to make people buy the Second P.P.V.....
and in FACT this is what HAPPEN..!!!
Floyd vs. Gatti =360,000 buys 1St P.P.V
Floyd vs. Judah = 375,000 buys 2nd P.P.V
Gatti was Floyd's stepping Stone into P.P.V
just like Judah was Cotto stepping stone to P.P.V
people bought that fight
to see Gatti fight Mayweather....
Just like people bought the Cotto-Judah Fight
Too see Judah fight Cotto
thats the difference
if you dont argee then you must say that Judah was the draw in the
Judah vs. Cotto Fight..!!
and
Make a argument with facts that Gatti was the focus of the Mayweather fight..Last edited by Horus; 04-10-2008, 08:16 PM.Comment
