    So Gatti has been one too but Calzaghe probably won't take the risk to get punished like Gatti has.

          So far he seems kind of boring. The fans didn't pay good money to see him kissing and hugging Collazo.

              TV's fault, not Hatton's.

              (they ordered him to fight at welterweight)

                Hatton was the most exciting fighter in the world, there's no question about that. The most exciting fighter since Nigel Benn.

                  Hattons style isnt like Gatti's,Hatton wrestle's,punches while he holds ( i aint bad mouthing him for all the Hatton lovers ) Gatti never used these tactics,John Duddy reminds me alot of him

                  But another exciting fighter is Juan Diaz,a guy d ppl will love when he gets older,he might not be like Gatti,but hes much more relentless and dont give u no time 2 breath,hes a top lightweight right now

                      nobody will ever replace Arturo "Thunder" Gatti. there isn't gonna be "another gatti", cuz nobody is like gatti. nobody has his heart, his will, and his ability to keep his fans, win or lose.
