    Didn't Gatti get KO'd in three out of his last four fights in Atlantic City?

      ok so before i say anything else i want to make sure what you said because im not quit sure if i understood you.....did you say calling paul williams a tough matchup would be a little overrating?

        what im saying is, i believe Mayweathers amazing skill of adapting to an oppenents fighter style all his career would make me not call P.W. the most difficult matchup. P.W. has a long reach but likes to fight inside too much.

        did you not read what i said, at the tail end of his career, starting with the Mayweather fight and then on Gatti had no business boxing anymore.

          No my friend those are they results of having fighters that are not household names fighting in cities where there is a massive amount of people with the same nationality as those fighters. there is a reason why cotto always fights in new york city the day before the puerto rican parade. It brings up revenue. thats it my friend. Do you think dlh vs floyd was in LA dlh would have won? as it is the whole stadium was rooting for dlh and you know how that goes. as you see pw beat marg in los angeles. Fighting in your hometown doesn't make the fight different.

            1)It's a fact that Cotto doesn't have huge power, he'll KO by the accumulation of punches thoughout the fight

            2)I though the handspeed theory was in the past after fighting Zab and Mosley, he has good handspeed and throws straight punches unlike Margarito.

            3)The weak chin stayed at JR Welter, he ate a few left uppers from Zab and a few right hands from Mosley and kept on coming

                obviously people in the stands cant fight for you thats not what im saying, im saying if you have fans from your country(UK and R.H.) and Cotto vs ____ in MSG in New York which is heavily populated with PR's then your going to fight with a little more giving you that advantage going into the fight. the support is there, but what you do with the support is upon the fighter yes.

                  Yes, I did read that too fast . However Gatti really didn't get too many breaks in AC, losing very close decisions to Robinson and Ward there.

                      well i for one dont mind Gatti losing to Ward in AC for the fact those fights go down as 3 of the best in history.
