    this tells me all i need to know about you. how can you call someone who puts their life on the line a *****? and you say he's a ***** because he doesnt take punches? the sport is hit and not be hit. there is two sides to the sport offense and defense and you should be good in both. whats the point in taken punches that you dont have to. you dont win fights by taken punches. the less your opponents hit you the better chance you have of winning. who says you have to take a punch just to deliver one?thats the dumbest **** i've heard


    and just because you're p4p best doesnt mean you have to KO people..ffs:patsch pbf isnt even fighting in his natural weight class


    and like i said you havent seen those fights i named because if you did you wouldnt say they were ****

    Yes. Gatti is much well known than most Hall of Famers. His heart is second to none and He gives his everything in all of his fights w/c earned him the respect among many people. It just happens that he is pitted w/ fighters like ODLH(much bigger than him) and PBF (More talent than any fighters today). But Gatti is Legendary.

    no, its not true, the hall has ****ed up on some choices, but including gatti would continue that trend. i dont want to see him in there with Ray Robinson, its an insult. being exciting doesnt make you important to the sport, theres lots of blood and guts warriors out there, gatti just cashed in at a good time.:twisted:

    the name is obviously confusing you, the criteria is supposed to be for great fighters, not fan favorites. what about the football hall of fame, lots of people know who the fridge is, but hes not getting anywhere near it.

    He didn't scale any heights. Pedroze was ripe for the picking and ready to retire. Laporte was a tough lazy fighter who always did enough to lose the big fight. Then he lost his title to a mediocre fighter. Yeah, he's more deserving than Gatti. Both of his losses were to second and third tier fighters.

    At least Gatti lost to good fighters. Even so, he still doesn't deserve to go to the HOF. but he is more deserving the McCguigan.

    Your little sister probably knows David Beckham too, doesn't mean he's an all-time great soccer player.

    I voted no, despite being a fan.
