    well, he fought Mayweather and according to him and his fans, Mayweather only fights big money, fight worthy opponents.
    baldomir was the real champ at welterweight.

    he was a weak linear champ though.

    before he fought judah, he was barely ranked in the top 10 at ww.

    and this was before the ww division got really good.

      I thought the same until I saw it a second time, where I noticed Gatti was out landing Baldomir until the middle rounds.

        Yes, I believe he was. He beat Judah who I believe didn't train for that fight & didn't take him serious enough & baldy ended up landing a good punch and Judah started running away through the entire fight. Then he fights a washed up Gatti, Than fights Floyd, than fights Forest who hadn't fought in a year due to injury and gets outclassed for 12 rounds & then retires. He had plenty of heart,determination and a chin but IMO definitely overrated.
