      Gatti has talent. He is just a brawler and not a boxer. He has never been overrated. And he has ten times more heart and pride than most fighters.

          to me, this is just another hater spewing innacurate facts to try and prove a point.
          dont believe everything you read.....

              Tyson won the championship at 21.
              Lacy is still going.
              Vargas was really good. Stood his ground with tito. Olympian.

                Tyson may have won the title at 21, yet I still argue he is the most overrated heavyweight of all time. For all the hype, Douglas beat him pretty decisively, Holyfield owned his ass, Lewis as well. Any time he stepped in the ring with a good fighter, he ended up on the losing end.

                Vargas is overrated in my opinion because all he had was power, he won fights that should have been losses(i.e. Vargas/Wright, Vargas/Quartey).

                As far as Lacy, wait until Taylor moves up to 168 and you'll see precisely what I mean. Lacy is too open when he fights. Somebody is eventually gonna expose him and that'll be the end of Lacy.

                Of course, Lacy may have more boxing ability than he lets on, and I could be completely wrong.
