    I misunderstood the question; I didn't see the bit about hurting the resume. For me that would be Gomez, but for the worst beating he recieved it is FMJ for me.

      Okay... we saw Gatti's boxing ability (jab dependent fighting) against Mayweather.

      Then we saw Gatti outbox Micky Ward in the rematch.

      That tells you something about Micky "never won a world title" Ward.

        I didn't read the poll question either so I voted for Gomez.

        I think the Manfredy and Robinson losses hurt his resume the most, before those losses he had been a legitimate top super featherweight but afterwards he was only a crowd pleaser.

          Same here.. I just now went back and read it.
          The thread starter should have let this be known.

              Mayweather fight.
              It was a one sided thrashing.

                **** I voted wrong. Mayweather beat him up worse in one fight than Ward did in 3. The one that HURTS his credibility most is hard to say but probably Gomez since Gomez is a JOKE of a fighter

                  The 9 people who voted Mayweather should really get on this whole literacy thing. I hear it's pretty underrated.

                    the thread title is horrible given the question inside. most people jump in and vote hoping it's reliable. in this case, it isn't

                      Okay Diego...

                      You go ahead and tell me the one static definition of what "worst loss" means.

                      I can think of a few off of the top of my head:

                      1. The worst beating you can get.
                      2. The worst fighter you can lose to.
                      3. The biggest drain on your resume.
                      4. The loss that changed the course of your career the most.

                      But seriously, if 3 of those don't apply, and it just means #1, by all means, let me know.

                      EDIT: Any by the way... am I the only one who reads the poll question before voting? Everyone seems indignant that I put the poll question in the poll.
