    Gatti had no chance vs mayweather but atleast it was at his natural weight class.

    A lot people forget that at 140 was about the last time mayweather had real power. Not like Jones but he was a puncher at 130-135 and at 140 he was still getting stoppages.

    By then, Gatti was at his end of his career where he was having trouble coming down to make that weight. His next and last 2 fights he tried moving up to 147 but he is no 147lbs fighter.


    What put a negative on that fight was that SUCKER PUNCH from Floyd in the first round. That whole sequence was just not right. Floyd first did something illegal and if I remember it correctly, the ref actually said STOP PUNCHING. The ref was too slow to get in the middle of them and appeared to not be happy with what Floyd did but it happened and the ref said nothing to Floyd after that sequence.

      Paz was hype. Great movement, great look, great stance. No substance.

      If you want to compare fights, let's compare Mayweather/Gatti to Jones/Toney. In THAT comparison, Roy Jones was at his absolute best and Mayweather can't compare.

      This poll? Mayweather/Gatti by a wide margin simply because Gatti wasn't a joke. He got KO victories immediately after this fight. But Floyd was just that much better than him.

          You've GOT to be kidding me.

          Gatti was a bonafide KO artist and he lost under conditions 100% ideal to him. He was the A-Side in that fight if you forgot and dominated in almost every other fight he was in after that fight. People talk about Gatti/Ward forgetting that GATTI won that trilogy.

          The first knockdown IMO shifted the momentum. Had that not happened, I don't know that Floyd would have done so well and the ref wasn't helping matters.

          Floyd at that level of competition was a beautiful fighter but come on, comparing Gatti to Lopez? Really?

            it was like he pretended he didn't just say stop punching. how can you call it a knockdown if you just said stop punching and the guy throws a punch that knocks his opponent down? thats special floyd treatment right there. only the rules apply to his opponent.

              what happened now? gatti only won 1 more fight in his career against a nobody. he was brutally ko'd by pillow punching gomez and baldomir after losing to floyd. gatti had become more "boxer like" after the ward trilogy and floyd ate that style up. same as when pac became more boxer like after being ko'd. floyd likes guys who just stand there and try to box him. guys like maidanamargarito not so much.

                    It was actually nothing like that. But maybe you weren't born when the fight happened which would explain why you're clueless.

                      Mayweather had a more dominant performance. Pazienza was in there tap dancing for five and a half round. As soon as he stopped dancing, Jones was able to get rid of him. Mayweather beat Gatti from the beginning of the fight until Buddy McGirt mercifully pried the mouthpiece from his locked jaws.
