In a February 2000 fight, Gatti left Gamache nearly dead from head trauma and with permanent brain damage; Gamache, Gatti was as much as 19 pounds overweight for the 141-pound fight.

It's sad when people get angry when their fighters looses. I won't lie I got angry when Anderson Silva lost his 2 matches to bull crap submissions, but you got to give Lesnar some props. The dude came into UFC thinkin it would be easy and got the living crap kicked out of him. He stopped for 2 years and came back in 3 fights and has the title. Now he's defended his title, and for that I give him respect.
