Six rounds of savagery...
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J.? Floyd Mayweather Jr., who belittled Arturo Gatti by calling him a C-plus fighter throughout the buildup to their fight, made him look more like an F fighter.
Mayweather landed combinations nearly at will on the slower Gatti and pounded him relentlessly until trainer Buddy McGirt stopped the fight with Gatti on the stool after the sixth round Saturday night at Boardwalk Hall.
The sold-out crowd of 12,675 ? nearly all Gatti supporters ? watched as Mayweather destroyed their hero. Mayweather won virtually every second of the fight to take Gatti's junior welterweight title.
