All the stuff you are listing isn't PERFORMANCE related. Is Gatti an exciting fighter?? Yes. Because he is average and that makes for competitive fights.

He is in "fight of the year" against 10 loss fighters that decent fighters are DOMINATING. That is nothing to be proud of.


You said that he "faced two of the greatest boxers of our era". Yes, he did. AND HE GOT BADLY DOMINATED AND HUMILIATED IN BOTH FIGHTS. SHOWING THAT HE DIDN'T BELONG IN THE SAME RING AS THOSE GUYS.



By the way, Gatti is NOT one of the "biggest box office attractions in boxing history". Gatti had ONE big PPV fight. He and Mayweather did 350K buys. And in the next PPV, Mayweather did almost 400K with Judah.

I will be glad to post the list of both box- office leaders and PPV leaders. PizzaBoy is on neither list.

True story.

dont be racist you ****ing prick

[-Antonio-]

With that gameplan Gatti had no chance to even be competitive. No shame in getting your ass handed to you by pretty boy. Remember he did the same thing to Diego Corrales.

dont be racist you ****ing prick

So, basically... my facts are right.

But I'm racist for the "PizzaBoy" comment.
LOL...Uh, ok.

Diego Corrales has been competitive with , and victorious over, other elite fighters.

Gatti has never been competitive with an elite fighter.

Gatti has never beaten an elite fighter.

Those are the facts.

Were my boxing facts inaccurate?

Don't try to divert attention from the issue.

btw, Is it "sexist" or "****phobic" when someone calls a fighter a *****?

Did my 'racist' comment dry your ***** out? Sorry about that.

no, your just bitter for no reason, probably because nobody likes you in real life, so you have to act like a prick on here, just the fact that gatti can sell out boardwalk hall even after losing seven times and is still a "b-class" fighter should be reason enough, he is that popular of a fighter, and that much of a crowd favorite, even after losing to mayweather he is still more popular.

Don't try the diversion.

Ok, everybody hates me. I'm inarticulate. I'm a prick. Yadda Yadda.

Now, back to the issues:

1) has gatti ever had a PPV event without mayweather? Did mayweather's event without gatti do better than mayweather's event WITH gatti?

2) has gatti ever beaten an elite fighter? Or been competitive with one?

3)has gatti ever earned purses as consistently large as mayweather?

Just proving your statements as fallacious.

nobody gives a **** about your elite fighter bs, hes is the most entertaining fighter, boxing is an entertainment business, therefore if your the most entertaining in entertainment then you are the best in that aspect, thats just one way that he is good enough to be in hall of fame
