    We were "crucifying" Canelo for NOT fighting GGG. We were all glad to see Canelo vs. Khan though. Was a good, entertaining fight .. you guys are not boxing fans, if you prefer the Ward vs. Paul Smith fights more than two P4P fighter, one of who moved to MW to become GREAT.

    At no point in time was Gatti ever "the biggest ppv attraction in the sport". Not sure where you're getting that from, but that is factually incorrect.

    No I prefer fights like Ward/Kovalev you absolute ****. GGG is fking pathetic the first time he fights someone with a pulse it's a guy 2 weight classes below.

    You're the one who said, "And you honestly don't believe that Floyd vs Gatti will be a bigger PPV success than GGG vs. Brook".

    So the insinuation I took from that was that you think GGG-Brook will be a bigger PPV success than Floyd-Gatti, which indicates that this was going to be a US PPV.

    No because at least Brook is the #1 at his weight

    That's strictly a matter of opinion, and one that many observers would surely disagree with.

    Debatable.

    h2h he probably loses to Spence or Bradley. Resume and accomplishment wise, Thurman and Bradley are far ahead. Thurman just beat Brook's best opponent.

    To everyone above. He is rated as #1 that might be debatable sure and not saying I agree with it, but the fact is he is rated at number 1.

    No, it's not. Gatti had six losses already and Brook is unbeaten. Still, damn. What a let down. It's like, what's worse drinking **** or eating ****. They are both pretty bad.
