    Confirmed that PBF's win over Gatti Overrated!

    Alfonso Gomez busted up Gatti just like PBF did. Yes Gatti was shot but still should have had enough in the tank to beat a losing tv contender.
    And Gatti was nomore shot than when he fought PBF! PBF beating DLH was good but PBF is afterall P4p No1 so you would expect him to beat DLH. Tito beat DLH, Pernell Witaker nearly did years back. SSM did as well. It just bugs me still that people still point to how well PBF performed agaisnt Gatti, when basically anyone can look good against Gatti.

      Gatti was two years older and in the intervening time, he had been destroyed by Carlos Baldomir.

      Not "basically anyone" can look good vs. Gatti.... In fact, the PBF fight was FAR more one-sided than the DLH-Gatti fight.


      Nice try....but we know what we saw.

        Mayweather got hit probably a total of 10 times. He hit Gatti about 200 times in 6 rounds (not sure about compubox numbers - just saying). It was impressive the clinic he put on, but the win itself wasn't that impressive. My opinion...

          I Really Hate Fights Like These Floyd Should've Been On His Chase For Greatness The Minute He Was Named Fighter Of The Year And That Means Trying To Unify The Titles In The Divisions He Has Fought In He Has No Foil As Ali Did Frazier Or Robinson Having Lamotta To Make Him Great His Competition Has Been Slightly Above Average With The Exception Of Castillo And Coralles I Dare Say If Cotto Beats Mosley His Resume Look Better.

            Gatti was a champ in 05, and anyone with a brain knows Floyd would have whooped Gatti's ass even if Gatti was in his prime.

              of course it wasn't all that great of a win.

              it was fun to watch for his skills, but he was beating arturo 'catchers mitt' gatti.

              its not even in mayweather's top 5 wins.

                  Its not as if Gatti was ever even a great boxer. He came to fame with his wars with Mickey Ward. Yes he was popular, but not great. So for Floyd to drop to his knee's in tears over win over Gatti, is a bit pathetic.
