The Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City would buzzing at a '"Superbout" between these two Champions! This fight is guaranteed to be like a train wreck once the bell sounds for the first round.

Canzoneri was an aggressive fighter who could box or punch; He was clever, capable, game and took a good punch; When the going got tough, Tony got going; Fighting in an era of many great fighters, he was among the best; During his career, he won the Featherweight Championship of the World, the Lightweight Championship of the World and the Junior Welterweight Championship of the World.

Tony Canzoneri, along with fellow Lightweight & Junior Welterweight champion, Barney Ross, remains one of the most enduring & beloved fighters in the history of the sport. When you consider that he fought in an era of only 10 weight divisions with one champion each, it makes his career even more remarkable. Tony won 5 world titles in 3 different divisions! Featherweight, Lightweight (twice), & Junior Welterweight (twice).

What more can you say about Gatti??? Those who have watched his unforgetable three 'Wars' with another 'Warrior' 'Irish' Micky Ward and two wars with Ivan Robinson know what the man's about.

After an 'Action-Packed' 15 rounds with both fighters busted up pretty bad from vicious exchanges with no fighter taking a step back, Canzoneri scrapes home with a very close SD. A bitter Gatti leaves the ring with one eye closed and demands an immediate rematch a week after. Canzoneri doesn't hesitate as he says: "Let's do it now!"
