    Arturo Gatti’s legacy was tarnished tonight too

    I think it’ll be hard to describe how much Arturo Gatti meant to the sport of boxing to someone who doesn’t follow it when there’s video evidence of Logan Paul outperforming him against a common opponent.

    Just a thought.

    Mayweather was 140 pounds and 28 against Gotti.

    Logan Paul is 200 pounds and on steroids

      This is a stretch... As much as I love Gatti he had already been through the wringer tenfold by the time he fought Floyd.

          Well honestly, the same thing would have happened to Gatti at any point in his career. He had just came off of 2 knockouts against Leija and Dorin.

            Nobody gave Gatti a snowball's chance in hell. Even his own team tried to talk him out of taking the fight.

              Gatti had the worst gameplan against Mayweather which gave Mayweather the confidence to open up the way he did

                Ah yes, because of the exhibition nobody is gonna remember the classic fights Gatti gave us. Most casuals don’t even know Gatti anyways so I don’t see how he ruined his legacy

                  Logan Paul had better fundamentals than Gatti

                    The utter disrespect for Gatti…. None of you bozo’s box!! Lol.

                    Gatti went through a 3 series war that changed the longevity of his career with Ward. What is taking severe damage not interpret as to how it affects in future fights.

                    Gatti took a mean hook from Floyd off guard that most guys wouldn’t get up tbh. After that shot Gatti just deteriorated opposed to previous rounds where his defense was better. His equilibrium was broken.
