    Going into the Baldomir fight and after it many people were talking that Arturo wasn't suppose to be there with that mindset.What was bothering him?What was the reason?Anybody?

    Apparently the weight was an issue.

    What do you mean the weight?They said he didn't have problems making the weight.

    That's what I heard at least. I seem to recall Larry insenuating that there was a struggle to lose the last couple pounds that really bothered Gatti. Also, in the build up to, and aftermath of the Gomez bout, they talked about how easily the weight came off with Ward in the camp.

    Gatti wasn't doing that bad early, he landed some serious bombs but Baldomir was on him all night. I think it was a case of Baldomir proving everyone wrong than the endless list of excuses to downgrade a good win on his record.
