        ok he is not the best p4p.
        mmm i can name a few all tiem greats that are better than him.
        and Arturo Gatti is not a bum.
        just look at his fights with Ward.
        mmm tell me otherwise.

          I saw the Gatti/Ward trilogy...they were exciting to watch, but also pointless. Any way, I believe Floyd has a case for best p4p. Gatti is no bum, but he's not a Floyd Mayweather either. Floyd has all the tools to beat Gatti and he will.

            I think people sometimes confuse Gatti's excitedness as a fighter with greatness. He is never ranked very high, but he is still elite and not a bum by any means. His fights are some of the most entertaining you can watch and that is why he has such a big fan base. That's not overrated, that's just boxing fans who like to watch a great fight.

              i think mayweather is way better too
              but dude
              he said he was the "best" ever
              that would mean he is better than
              Sugar Ray,
              Ali and Tyson.
              he called his father a bad trainer. thats just plain old wrong.
              and even if you can make a case for p4p.
              he is not that clear

                  Just because no belts were on the line, doesn't mean they were pointless. The contribution to the sport that those fights made can't be measured in belts or money, but by blood and guts.

                    IMO, they were pointless because he could have fought much better competition. How has fighting Ward three times help his career? As long as he keeps fighting mediocre talent, he'll always be known as a blood and guts warrior who could not beat the elite fighters in his division.
