A club fighter is a professional boxer who usually fights locally and has a mediocre record. Club fighters generally are not nationally recognized and have not won any fights that show the ability to win a championship. The term is often used as a pejorative for over-hyped fighters or for older boxers in decline. As an example, Floyd Mayweather Jr. called Arturo Gatti "a blown-up club fighter", despite Gatti being the WBC super lightweight champion at the time.
