Taking the question literally, of course Floyd can KO Gatti. Anyone who's been watching boxing for more than 3 weeks knows that a KO is not only a function of punching power but can sometimes be a function of the accumulation/ sheer volume of punches. Clealry, Floyd can deliver the latter.
Of course the question is whether Floyd will knock Gatti out. I doubt it. I am a firm Mayweather fan and will be rooting for him come Sunday morning, but since I 1st heard about this fight, I've just had a funny, queazy feeling about it.
I see Gatti doing a whole lot more boxing than he's ever done, forcing Mayweather to try and do his macho thing to force matters and getting caught in the process. Gatti definitely has enough in those punches to KO Floyd, if he can connect.
But even if Floyd wins, it will be by decision purely because I doubt that he will take unnecessary risks. It's not really in his nature.
3 words for you;

Depends what you mean, like Flaps said.
As an average of all participants, I'd have to go with F-1 - basically because there's like ...what ...30-40 odd drivers in total with maybe the top 10 earning well in excess of $50m a year.
But I agree, the NBA must be right up there.
Yep. Pretty much. When a guy tries to stand but keeps wobbling, it's the inner ear "playing tricks" on him.
These little stones in there are busy spinning, giving him the illusion that up is down and left is right etc. So he tries to correct himself and keep "upright" - with comical effect, hence the now famous Zab Breakdance.
Another good illustration of this phenomenon is that famous Tyson-Berbick fight. Tyson barely glances Berbick's jaw with that left hook yet the effect is amazing. Why? Head swivel. That punch had less to do with power but more perfect timing.isn't that the kind of punch that kosta delivered when he ko'd zab judah?
The obvious answer is right on the point of the chin, to get maximum swivelling of the opponent's head.
The effect of it is the agitation of the endolymph fluid or otoconia in the inner ear, leading to a distortion of dorso-ventral orientation ... balance in layman's terms. (Refer to Hearns-Duran)
Of course, a well-placed shot right on the ear can also have the same effect. The best way of getting maximum distirtion of balance is to throw a stiff punch against the direction in which the opponent's head is moving. i.e. when a guy is leaning forward to punch or a left hook when the guy is moving sideways towards his right etc.
" ...behaving ..." my black hairy Zulu ass! Yeah right!
That "jerkoff" swipe was right up the "behaving" alley.
Jerkoff! :mad:
By the way - do you know what's up at BI? Have you seen anyone else here? I think I saw GOAT tucked away in some obscure thread.I'm behaving myself, bud.
And who said you were a dumb African? Not I.
Now Pigman, on the other hand...
Hey, I'm just a dumb African! :rolleyes:
Oh, and Flaps - keep this up and you'll be history like allanglez ;)
Hey mouse--wrong forum, jerkoff. :boxing:
