If Gatti sucks so bad, why is Baldomir getting so much credit?

[ROSEWOOD]

He should have been getting this credit after beating Judah. I think it's noteworthy to take out Gatti, but the Judah victory was more meaningful in my opinion.

Because most people wrote him off against Gatti, although he was trash....Bald shut the world up and when you are able to shut people up with action and not just words, you deserve credit...

[cortdawg25]

Because fans are dumb and wish washy. They pick gatti to KO Baldomier and when the opposite happens, Gatti was wash upped, blah blah. when the truth of the matter, even if Gatti was in his prime he would have lost to baldomier, he doesnt have the skills to move up in weight and be effective. He is a brawler at best and bigger men can take his punch. I think he is a nice fighter and will get in the HOF because of his fights at the lower weights.

Gatti is not bad, he's just not hof material

AMEN...................

and the thing about that is..he didnt even beat judah..judah won the first 6 rounds..and the last 2

[charlie31]

Because he was the prohibitive underdog and beat two former champions in a row.
And I dont think Gatti sucks, he is a solid fighter IMO.
But watching him try and box was funny at times.

former champions in a row? Judah was champion when Baldi beat him

hmm that is why the judges gave the fight to Baldi in Judah's backyard....Don King couldnt even save Judah from that one.

Judah got weeble wobbled

[dino]

charlie are u ******ed? u judge a fight round by round..not who the hell got wobbled in 1 round...baldomir had 3 or 4 good rounds the whole fight and that was one of them..3 good rounds out of 12 u dont win

[Left2body]

My mind told me Gatti was gonna lose but my heart wanted him to win because he was/is such a gutsy fighter. For those like me who often bet real money these scenarios mean DONT BET. I could've put my money on Baldomir because I had very strong objective opinion that he would win but I HATE cheering against a guy or team I really like just because I got money on the other guy.

Gatti = credit to the sport and solid respected champion that did a lot with his limited natural talent. HOF hmmm, probably not, its like putting Rudy in the College Football HOF.

Baldomir has to be given credit for his last 2 wins. He beat 2 solid fighters and he might not be the best 147lb but like it or not he is THE MAN TO BEAT at 147lbs.

[charlie31]

Well, you can give Baldomir credit for winning but you can't say he's a great or even really good fighter. Beating up Gatti means nothing, and Judah lost that fight himself by running.

really? cause i recall him getting hit while he was running

his weggs were wubbery

oh im sorry Dino i didnt judge the fight. the judges did. go are your point with them

why would they rob judah in NY against a 16 to 1 underdog WHEN he has a fight with Floyd pending??

please just answer that
