      therefore the win isn't as good at 147. pretty obvious to me.
      Hatton should have fought Floyd at 140 when he had ample opportunity.

            Me too but no one will admit they thought Arturo had a chance after that drubbing that took place. I still love Gatti but that was a sad night even for me.

            Yeah the Collazo fight was a good win. This question will end the Ricky Hatton talk. You didnt think Hatton had a chance against Floyd before that fight happened? What ever your answer is I'll zip my lips on the subject atleast for this thread.

              I don't recall their names but I constantly heard over and over again that..

              "Floyd didn't have the pop to keep Gatti off him"

              "Mayweather is in trouble...McGirt is training Gatti to punch him on the arms and shoulders"

              A lot more people predicted a Gatti win than care to admit.
