Gatti is the one fighter who benefits the most from having the weigh-in the day before the fight.. His extra weight is a big part of what carries him in fights!! Why do you think he is powerful.. On fight day vs. DLH their weight was about the same and he got ripped up in 5 rounds. Don't get too excited about Gatti vs Mayweather. I have a feeling Gatti might hurt his hand, or seperate his shoulder a week or two before hand

I do not understand, for the life of me. Exactly why some people think he is a "top notch" fighter. They obviously have never seen his fights before the Ward3/Dorin/Leija where he domintated bigger bums than himself. This is the same fighter who was blown out of the water by DlH, and lost to a host of mediocre fighters. He lacks skill, (and its hilarious when people say he has). I suppose it will take Mayweather tearing his head completely off, to make them realize he is not that good of a fighter.

I agree... Gatti is OVER-RATED and he's being very protected at the moment! Leija etc... He also has a punches chance against Mayweather - And we all know that Mayweather can't hurt Gatti.

3 exciting fights against an old Micky Ward doesn't make you Kostya Tszyu!

Why can't Mayweather hurt Gatti? Robinson, Manfredy, Ruelas and a few others have all hurt Gatti. Mayweather is a harder puncher then all three of those men.

cause we said so rick

Well, for those who saw his earlier fights, like me, you have to agree that he has improved in skill. Yes, he lost to Ward, DLH, twice to Ivan Robinson, and Angel Manfredy (at his best, I must say), but he has learned much under Buddy McGirt and now moves much better than he used to.

I'm not trying to say that he is a great fighter, but he isn't the same fighter he used to be when he brawled because he lacked skill to fight. Now he is a more complete fighter.

He'll still get dominated by PBF, but he would still do good against many fighters out there.

hes not there for his skills just for his heart and willingness to take punishment... something that he dont do nowadays.

Arturo Gatti is IMO the worst defensive fighter in boxing. He leads with his head, and has zero ability to avoid punches. Leather would be his preferred entree if he were to ask for his last supper. Mayweather is going to give him so many servings of seconds, that Gatti will choke.

I am a Gatti fan but I am scared of him fighting mayweather. This fight could be career ending for him (gatti)

There goes some Gatti hating again!

You say he suck but would never miss one of his fight

He's not over rated! Nobody in his right state of mind puts him in his top 10 p4p. But he comes to fight and that's what we like.

What's the point to **** on the last fighter who get boxing some attention?

You say he suck but would never miss one of his fight
?

Being exciting has nothing to do with being a good fighter. I like J.C. Candelo, and he is one of my favorite fighters. He is a loser nonetheless.

Yeah, the same goes for Ebo Elder. I like his style of fighting but he isn't a good fighter, either. Juan Diaz will break him in two in a war! Probably will be fight of the year, too. Ebo will look like the Elephant Man, even worse than the Courtney Burton fight! That doesn't make him good, just exciting. Gatti is the same way, he's exciting to watch, but he's not good.

we all know gatti is overrated..and hes now getting the big head because he beat 4 bums in a row...in the dorin fight gatti weigh liked 159 while dorin was 142..and a blown up 142 at that

Gatti is not overrated at all, the most overrated boxer in the world is Zab Judah.

if Judah fought GAtti, Gatti would end his career.

Why can't Mayweather hurt Gatti? Robinson, Manfredy, Ruelas and a few others have all hurt Gatti. Mayweather is a harder puncher then all three of those men.

Because Gatti has been in some real wars and if we know anything, it's that Gatti can take a punch! Couple that with Floyd not only being a weak puncher but also being in a weight class to high for him.

I'd be willing to bet you 4 million points (that's all I have) that Floyd doesn't KO Gatti. Floyd will win the fight easy... But I say that fight has Floyd UD written all over it.

Floyd put Corley down with very quick flurries of diss-orientating punches... Cotto put Corley down with solid, heavy, Hurtfull blows.

I think that's a sure bet!

Gatti is not overrated at all, the most overrated boxer in the world is Zab Judah.

yeah.

I suppose beating:

Ward, Witter, Corley, Pineda, Weis, Spinks and others makes you 0verrated.
Once again you show your ignorance troll.......... :loser:

Judah would never fight Gatti because he knows Gatti would put him in the hospital within 20 mineuts.

Judah would knock Gatti out in less than 5 rounds. He is a subpar fighter in comparison. Did you see what he did to Ward? what did Gatti do to Ward again?

dumbass. Stop saying stupid things. You are looking really retarded now.

gatti has knocked guys cold man, he has 30kayos in 38 fights, id watch him fight over all the so cld "good boxers" anyday, he is a good fighter, but not great, but so what? he puts asses in the seats?

Judah is a straight up P***y, if he was not he would fight Gatti, but he wont because Gatti would tear him up so bad. That little punk Judah could not fight with Gatti, maybe his little JEwish tricks might fool Gatti for 1 round but after that, Gatti make Judah even uglier than he already is, bust him up from the kidneys to the eyes, end his career.

Judah is a Welterweight you stupid jackoff

What the hell is he going to do.......strip himself of his own title?

god you are so fugging stupid it is not even funny. I thought I had seen it all. You are bar none the most idiotic person to have ever posted on any forum anywhere.

if Judah fought GAtti, Gatti would end his career.

Its the other way around, :cool:

Judah is a Welterweight you stupid jackoff



Judah is 5 pounds above GAtti, big f***king deal that means nothing in boxing today. Judah would even have a size advantage over Gatti but Judah still wont fight Gatti, because he knows Gatti would tear him up so bad.

So you are saying that Judah should abandon his Welterweight Champion of the World belt in order to fight Arturo Gatti?

idiot. You are delusional. And this is the last time I ever respond to your stupidity.

Gatti would most likely go up in weight to fight Judah, if Judah gave him the opportunity, which he never will because he is a little b***ch that cant even consider trying to fight a warrior like Gatti.

And Judah is not the welterweight champ he is a wbc alphabet champ like 70 other guys.

gatti is bigger than judah, taller and if they fought he would probably come in heavier as well

Gatti has lost to guys who arent even top of the line,just O.K like Ivan Robinson(twice), Angel Manfredy,Mickey Ward(Weak), and when he fought a great fighter in Oscar, Gatti got destroyed in 5 rounds. Gatti is supreme HBO overated creation

Arturo is improving now. Buddy did a lot. There was untrained Gatti in the bout with Oscar. And there was not Buddy in Gatti’s corner.
Leija is a 39-aged young man. He has exellent skills, blazing speed and lion heart. But he’s a great sluggard. He have almost beaten Tszyu but got a cut and gave up. He could beat Mayweather without doubt. The hard punch is the only one way to beat him.
Gatti let Ward to land his punches because the respect.
Gatti can place his hands hard and that’s why he’s a murderous puncher.
Floyd can’t punch but his skills let him to get the number of ounches that breaks his opponents.
Arturo will change one punch for three Floyd’s punches but it’s enough to put Floyd on the floor.
Arturo is great puncher and lion in the ring. Don’t compare punchers with other boxres. Tua isn’t Jones too but his style is effect and it’s the main factor here.

Amazing! You see fights so much differently than everyone else. Gatti was quoted to have been in the 'best condition of his career' before the Oscar fight due to the 147 weight limit. Gatti wasn`t weight drained and said he could finaily fight the fight of his career. And he showed great heart although he was hammered.
Leija was shot long before Tsyzu beat him, so what did Gatti beat?
And Leija was taking a systematic beating at the hands of Tsyzu, he wasn`t doing well in that fight!

i seems like manny people here still look at floyd as a 135 pounder. Did you see his last fight? what did he weigh? did he look slower? did he look weaker? NO. Gatti is going to get KOed by Floyd. if he chooses to fight rather than box it'll be over in 6, if he chooses to box i give him 10 - 12 with several KDs maybe surving a sad brutal boxing education from Floyd. Gatti is exciting, at best he has some great fights, but Floyd is a great fighter.......... BIG DIFFERENCE.

Amazing! You see fights so much differently than everyone else.

I think he knows something we dont. He also predicted Ruiz to stop Vitali in the 11th round, and claims Valuev is an "underrated" fighter. LMAO.

Gatti already ducked the hell out of Judah. Zab tried making that fight at 140 but Gatti wouldn't have it. There isn't a person in bocksing that Zab ducked. Especially at 140.

Hatton mentioned Zab one time like 2-3 years ago. Zab was dying to give Hatton that fight. Hatton hasn't uttered the words "Zab Judah" ever since. I implore anybody to find where Hatton mentioned wanting to fight Zab in the last 2 years. It is impossible.

Look for Gatti to duck Mayweather once again. He already wouldn't fight Floyd in January. My prediction since before this was signed has been that Gatti will either postpone or pull out of the fight, due to a very coincidental injury. Gatti is the new Tszyu.

Probably puts 3 dollar bets on at 50/1, cups his hands the prays!

McGay, you're an idiot. Judah isn't the welterweight champ? He's got all 3 WBC, WBA, IBF titles. Fool, you're not a real fan, so leave.

If Judah isn't the welterweight champ (he stopped Spinks), who is? idiot

Sorry, I expressed my thought wrong. His condition was good but there wasn’t thinking trainer in his corner. That’s why there wasn’t perfect game-plan in his brain. It was clear that he exactly did all that were advised by his corner but it was wrong against Oscar. He brandished like he would catch a fly but hooks from a distance are ineffective against fast opponent. He used his right cross seldom but each time he did he was successful. He used bodyshots seldom but each time he did he was successful. He often stayed under attack but each time he used back-step or side-step it was effective. But no one in his corner said him what to do in that situation.
And now he work much more clever because of his new trainer.

Jesse James Leija lost and of course it’s not well for him. But he landed more punches than Tszyu. It’s last Tszyu’s shots that made the game.
