Regarding Mayweather's extraordinary speed Gatti said that "people slow down when they get punched." Gatti, one of the gutsiest boxers of modern times, also questioned Mayweather's courage. "I don't know if he has heart, but if he does I'm going to shrink it." Both Mayweather his uncle/trainer Roger and his father Floyd Sr. (Oscar De La Hoya's trainer) have all been known to trash-talk their opponents. In a way, trash-talking seems to run in the family. "It also runs in the family that they have glass jaws," retorted Gatti.
tht last sentence made me laff hard, gatti i think now has a big chance of beating mayweather. i was thinkin mayweather on a shutout, but now i think i might actually pick gatti. we've never seen mayweather in a war, if we c him in a war now, who will win
Who is going to get hit first? Gatti. What happens when you get hit? Gatti says "people slow down when they get punched." So Gatti'll slow down. Mayweather'll maintain. Gatti would have to hit Mayweather to do anything at all. Not going to happen.
.
Damn it. That was my point to Mechslave. Why doesnt he understand that.

Okay you just showed your ignorance. Gatti was NOT against someone bigger than him. Gatti weighed more. Gatti always comes in at about middleweight on the night of the fight.
Those opponents you named are garbage...and idiot, he fucking LOST TWICE to Ivan Robinson, an opponent you named you dumbass! Gabe Ruelas is the best opponent Gatti has beat. Rodriguez? That's like calling Mayweather great for beating Bobby Geipert. You are the one who is seriously misinformed here if you actually think Rodriguez was a good opponent. Just cause Gatti struggled with him doesn't mean he was a good opponent. It just proves that Gatti is not such a good fighter, idiot.
Gatti doesn't get better when he gets hit, idiot. He gets desperate. He turns on the fire out of desperation. Ivan Robinson was a mediocre boxer with above average boxing technique. He easily outboxed Gatti twice. What do you think Mayweather, an even better boxer who actually has beaten good opponents will do to an even worse Gatti than the one Robinson beat? This is a mismatch.
DLH is naturally bigger than Gatti. Sorry if you don't think so. Look at the fight- it looked like a big brother fighting his little brother. DLH is naturally larger than Gatti. Gatti fights at 140 and that fight with DLH is the highest he's ever fought and the lowest DLH has fought since then. The DLH fight he weighed in at 146- DLH at 147. Does DLH fight at 140? OK, then maybe you want to rethink your statment about DLH not being a bigger fighter than Gatti. LOL
Now you call me an "idiot" yet you either can't read, or you can't comprehend, or you chose not to read my posts. I mentioned those fights as evidence that Gatti turns it on when he gets hit- he loads up and his punches and throws them harder than ever. Which to me is not "slows down" when he gets hit.
Yes, Robinson outboxed Gatti twice- did you see me say anything to the contrary? LOL You CANNOT READ! (Actually the first Robinson fight should have been a draw).
And I love how all these guys Gatti has fought are so pathetic. Let's remember that when the PBF fight comes along. ROFL You guys just let your mouth overload your brain.
-Let's see if PBF has Gatti down and closes both his eyes in the way Rodriguez did.
-Let's see if PBF has Gatti almost out on his feet the way Ruelas did.
-Let's see if PBF puts Gatti down and has him out on his feet the way Ward did in the 9th of Ward-Gatti I.
I mean, all those guys are SO FAR BELOW the level of PBF, right? :rolleyes: So PBF should just dominate Gatti, right? With no trouble whatsoever? :p
LOL let's see. :D
I think you realize your mistake but you are trying your hardest to rework your original statement into something that makes sense. hehe
I think you are offended by your lack of boxing knowlege, and are getting defensive when someone jumped in and agreed exactly on how you need to be removed from Gatti's scrotum bag.
Easy to continue to try and pick on me: when MasterDirector just completely owned your ass beyond recognition. Why dont you reply to his 1 page explaination?
I forgot. You do not want him to point out what a douche you are again.

That is exactly what I meant. I would not retract that statement. He "slows down". Are you saying that he becomes more "crisp" after eating leather?
because you need to watch those divx fights again man. The minute he gets hit in the head, his stamina starts to deplete and he fights on sheer guts. That to me: is "slowing down".
Ok, so by "slows down" you must also mean "throws MORE punches and HARDER than before" Because that's what he does against Ruelas, Robinson, Rodriguez and many others. Throwing MORE punches and HARDER punches is not "slowing down" to me. I'm sorry. LOL It's just not. What you were trying to say is that when he gets hit he goes to war and stops boxing loses his gameplan. Far different from "slowing down" We will just have to agree to disagree on that. I think you realize your mistake but you are trying your hardest to rework your original statement into something that makes sense. hehe

When he eats leather, he loses his gameplan and does not fight accordingly. Yes you missed plenty of things, because you were blinded by how exciting Gatti is. Those three paragraphs were nothing but justifications for you overrating him as a fighter.
Those fighters you mentioned were complete trash, and this discussion has been done over so many times it is not funny. I really am tired of having to repeat myself, and I feel others are as well.
Just wait untill your boy gets thoroughly dominated by Floyd Mayweather. He is not that good of a fighter man. Not to mention, I do not think you have seen many Gatti fights......this I am completely sure of.
LOL did you even see the DLH fight? pffffff! whatever.
LOL I have about 15 of them in divx right here on my desktop. The fight vs. DLH was a one-sided fight, but did Gatti quit? He stood in there and kept throwing and taking a beating and still throwing, and YES he did stun DLH briefly. I'll give you the round and time later if you want. I'm wondering if you have seen it.
To dismiss those fighters I mentioned is folly. Those were tough fighters and tough fights. He never stopped punching when he gets hit, contrary to what you said. Does he lose his gameplan and go to war? YES, he does often times. That is what you are amending your statement to say- which is a helluva lot different than your original silly statement "The minute Gatti tastes leather, he slows down."
Gatti may lose the fight, but it won't be because the first time PBF hits him he stops throwing and "slows down" LOL
LOL did you even see the DLH fight? pffffff! whatever.
The only reason Gatti landed a few shots on De La Hoya was because Oscar got bored. Gatti got DESTORYED in a one sided beating!!
Have you seen any Gatti fights? I mean, seriously. When Gatti tastes leather he slows down???!? Did I miss something (like Gatti's entire career?)

Ward is seriously lacking in boxing skills, but he was one of the toughest and strongest guys at 140. .
Ummm. No. I can name at least 5 "tougher and stronger"

The minute Gatti tastes leather, he slows down. Against a good fighter, he is complete toast. People give his chin more credit than it actually deserves as well. Like against Ward. It was hilarious, he was boxing and taggin Ward.....then he got caught. Ward of all people was making him look stupid in points of their fights. Not a good sign when a guy 10 tiers below Mayweather can hurt you seriously in a fight. I could care less how "hard" Ward punches. He is a streetwalker compared to Mayweather in punching effectiveness.
This is silly.
Have you seen any Gatti fights? I mean, seriously. When Gatti tastes leather he slows down???!? Did I miss something (like Gatti's entire career?)? When Gatti tastes leather he throws MORE punches and as hard as he can. That's a fact. Watch his fights with Rodriguez, Ruelas, Robinson..heck, even DLH. He stunned DLH in their fight, and that fight was stupid- Gatti against someone who is so much bigger than him. Even on that fight he never stopped or slowed down- he kept coming until his corner stopped it.
And you are just uninformed about Ward. Ward is seriously lacking in boxing skills, but he was one of the toughest and strongest guys at 140. Nobody survived against Ward very long standing toe-to-toe with him and trading, everyone beat him by outboxing him pretty easily. If Mayweather stood inside and traded shot for shot with Ward, PBF would lose within 5 rounds. Gatti did stand and trade- and when he did, he lost rounds in those fights. If you want to say Gatti doesn't fight as smart as PBF, then that's true. No problem.
But don't even try to say PBF wins the toughness contest. Because that is a joke. PBF may win this fight with his skills which are obviously superior to Gatti (and pretty much anyone he faces) but Gatti is the bigger puncher and the punishment Gatti can take is mind-blowing- and he seems to thrive on it. Inferring that when the going gets tough, Gatti slows down and is less effective is just simly incorrect.

I think that Floyd is a great fighter, but he is being waaaay overrated in this thread. He is undefeated but in his last few fights he has fought nobody that could even challenge him. And i dont think its cause he is just that good, but more cause his opponents have been B class boxers. Gatti has a few things going for him in this fight. He will have the power, and mayweather will be fighting a true Light Welterweight for the first time. I think Gatti will shock some people in this fight. Im sure he is aware of what everyone thinks will happen, which can only add to his focus for this fight.
LETS SEE IF GATTI CAN MAKE IT . REMEMBER FM IS UNDEFEATED.& HAS FLASHY POWER TOO.
mayweather is fast but gatti isn't exactly slow. i want to see gatti punish him to the body relentlessly. i don't want anything spectacular. i want what i always want: the brawler to get in there and take out the pretty boy with a bodyshot. i think it is gonna be a hell of a matchup.

That's what i like to hear. Gatti is a true warrior. The man will never give up, and I am growing more and more confident every day of his ability to win. I was at first positive of a Mayweather Decision, but now im edging toward a Gatti KO. I love Gatti, truly is the human highlight film.
Floyd is to fast for Gatti and will not find him in the ring. If he does Floyd will sit in the pocket and beat Gatti at his own game. Also Gatti cuts easily and when you have someone like Floyd in there with you that is bad news. Floyd by stopage in round 8.
