    The Gatti of 140 pounds knocks out Ray. Brutally. At which point Rays dad jumps in the ring and takes a swing at Kathy Duva. Kat ducks and sinks a left hook into Lenny s breadbasket. Wallah! Instant love! Lenny dumps Rays mom shows the redhead the boom boom and adopts Arturo who writes this poem in tribute to his new slightly off step dad

    That guy would hurt you with a body-shot just by looking at you.

    My morning coffee just shot through my nose. Hurt like hell but was worth it to read "Ray's dad jumps in the ring and takes a swing at Kathy Duva"

    Gatti is not a LW he was at his best lower weight, Mancini nowhere near a top 20 guy at LW All time, but hits harder at LW, KO's Gatti around round 9 or 10.

    I do remember that. Why was HBO building up Grant so much. Then Lennox beat him so easily.
