    Seriously, the win over Gatti was the biggest assbeating I have ever seen.

    1. Mayweather-Gatti
    2. Calzaghe-Lacy
    3. De La Hoya-Mayorga
    Gatti is a C level fighter and even Mayweather mentioned this himself. He made himself look like a fool taking on Gatti after bashing him and calling him a C level fighter the whole time.

      Didn't he talk the same kind of dimes on Judah too, and, umm...

      Everyone else he has faced?

        He never called Judah, Castillo, etc etc C level fighters. He talks a lot of bull**** but that was not one of them against the few elite fighters he has fought.

        And the Gatti fight was his career defining fight...that's ****ing sad. Even still, Mayweather couldn't fill seats unless there's another big name fighter on the card.

          Mayweather's biggest win was against DLH.
          Ricky Hatton's biggest win was against Kostya.

          Now, who did better against their respective opponents?

            Did you read any press clippings? nobody called him a fool.

            Ndou - $3 mil
            Bruseles - 3.5 Mil
            Gatti - 4 mil
            Mitchell - 4 mil
            Judah - $6 mil
            Baldo - $10 mil
            Oscar - $26 mil
            Hatton - $16 mil


            Do you now understand why he fought Gatti? For the exposure. It was his first PPV and he used Gatti to leap-frog his career to the next level...Some fool, huh?

            LMAO.

            He did what you are SUPPOSED to do with a C level fighter. Embarrassed and outclassed him. Hatton fought a C level fighter in Urango. And dryhumped him for 12 rounds.

              I dunno. There's too many names in there for my little brain.

              Here's a more direct question: what if Hatton was in the ring with Oscar on May 5th?

                That's a speculative question. Mine isn't.

                  Everyone knows that De La Hoya would knock Hatton out, definitely at light-middleweight and probably at welterweight too but what does that prove?

                      What you have just posted is blatant lies apart from De La Hoya being bigger than Mayweather though I am not sure what relevance that has anyway.
