were going to ignore that post.. uve been hating gatti since day 1. no1 likes you here.. so just leave..
What he said is true. He has been humiliated in front of top competition every time. There's no doubt about it. His best competition was against DLH and Mayweather, and he hardly landed a punch against either guy.
A lot of credit has to be given, because he surely went into both fights knowing he would lose, but he was just blasted out of the ring by both guys. The beating he took from Mayweather is one of the most brutal beatings I've ever seen, thank God it only lasted six rounds.
Not only does he lose to top competition, he gets blown out badly.
Oscar delahoya and Shane Mosley don't have great records against top comp. But they don't get gang-raped in the ring like gatti does.
Arturo Gatti has humiliated himself every time he tried to step up in class.

atleast he fought the guys and accepted defeat,and surely u all know many fighters dodge big names coz they know theyle lose 2 make a name 4 themselfs?
He only struggles against speed. DLH and Mayweather both have quick hands and he couldnt handle it. He will never fight another guy with great hand speed again, ill tell u that
u know im sorry but im actually pretty offended by that post,i dnt care how new i am 2 this sport,4 u 2 make a comment on his looks and for eveything hes done 4 all the fans,thats a poor comment,sorry take my rep,but thats poor
Everybody loves watching Gatti. All you fuckers know you'll be all over that shit when he fights Baldomir next month. I wonder how much longer his hands can hold up. It seems like he fucks them up in every fight lately. Also, what the hell is going on with his eyes? The dude looks like he's asian?!?
thats the result of him bein the best entertainer ther ever was,and hurtin himself 4 ur pleasure,so dnt knock his looks,thanks 4 all ur replies ppl,glad 2 know gatti is respected by alot of boxing fans!and glad 2 know im rite 4 supportin him,
;) cheers ppl

gatti all action good skills
Gatti has better skills than he's given credit for because he turns to his instincts quickly. He'll be known as the most exciting fighter in history, just ahead of Saad Muhammad, because of his many wars. But if you really break down his fights, he uses skill, but when he gets rattled he turns to instinct and the fights become wars. Because he's nearing the end of his career I am hoping we have someone who is at least half as exciting. Right now Rogers Mtagwa out of Philadelphia is one with skills who will trades exchanges. Gatti is easily a B grade; could have been an A- but he did lose to Oscar, Floyd, Ivan Robinson (the first was better than the M. Ward bouts) and Manfredy.
Gatti is one of my favorite fighters ever. Like everyone here said already his heart is incomparable. He has done more for boxing with his sub-par boxing ability than most fighter that are very skilled boxing wise.
still he has skills that a lot of fighters that ARE recognized for being boxers dont have that he has, you could see his boxing ability increase after the first ward fight, and they have gotten better
