Naz has been mentioned and if he had wanted to, talked the talk and all that bullshit, the rematch would have grossed more than the first.
A loss can often open up a lot of previously closed doors for a fighter though. Others think they'll pick the bones and big fights happen.
Look at how many greats in the past have had more than the odd loss and still gone on to achieve marvellous things!
Look at how many big fights Gatti has lost.
You're entertaining and give your all, they will still have on TV.
