    Gatti's best fights are against journeymen, Robinson and Ward. Name one A class level fighter that Gatti beat (Not Dorin who was way too small). Actually, name one A classs level fighter that Gatti even fought. Gatti has been stunned or hurt in just about every fight that went past three rounds. Stunned by guys that did not hit as hard as Tszyu or Mayweather. Mayweather and Tszyu fight the top opponents in their class over and over. Please refer to the Jay Larkin letter sent to BoxingScene about how Gatti ducked Tszyu, he has ducked Mayweather for years. Mayweather has been his mandatory since May of 04 and he has fought Dorin (coming from semi-retirement and now Leija (way past his prime). The only A class fighter Gatti fought was De La Hoya and he was almost stopped in one round.
    this is the same point I was trying to get across the other day, Gatti will never be a top 10 fighter but he was alway fun to watch

      Floyd would outclass him and probably win on points, Tszyu might murder him.
      That was my point too, more or less. I dont think he'd be able to land much against either, but I sure dont want him in the ring with Tszyu, eating those power punches hes famous for! He's the type that he would not back down (not if he's breathing) and he'd probably get seriously hurt. Alot of people underestimate just how much power Tszyu possesses, I dont. I love Gatti WAY too much to see him get hurt against Kostya!

          Hmmmm, some interesting matchups, for sure! After watching Freitas against Corrales ,I would give Gatti a chance against him I suppose. Wow, the thought of him in against Casamayor, Morales and/or Barrera is too much to imagine...amazing fights!
          All of them tend to go toe to toe when the situation calls for it!
