no way can you compare gatti with the GREAT JCC. gatti can only wish t be as good as him. As for PBF, he he much better than taylor was, his will be a loop sided fight. Floyd will ko gatti

his neckname isnt lightning they are just saying he is lightning he is lightning quick and gattis nick name happens to be thunder.. anyway I think mayweather gonna win easily but just thought it was interesting that they are named the same..and a fast boxer vs a slugger

i talked to an editor for rabbitpunchboxing.com and he thinks it might be lopsided the other way around i doubt it but i just hate the fact that he is using that name to his advantage when its just a publicity pitch

It is funny that it's the same name and all that but it will be a completely different kind of fight. First off, Chavez is lightyears ahead of Gatti. Secondly, Meldrick Taylor was a completely different kind of fighter than Floyd.

Taylor/Chavez I was the best boxing match ever in my opinion. It had everything that made a fight great. The uber talented, flashy fighter who was trying to take down the legend in Chavez, who was the king of boxing at the time. I think that fight had more drama than every fight in the year 2004 combined.

Gatti/Mayweather will be a lot more 1 sided and less interesting than Taylor/Chavez...

Did you know Chavez was 69-0-0 when he faced Taylor at 24-0-1, sort of like fighting Miguel Cotto now ;) .

i made a thread abotu this before, gatti's nickname is thunder and PBF moves like lightning so i dont think its makign a ref to JCC and taylor, alotuh PBf is fast liek taylors hands for the lightning part and gatti is a warrior liek JCC not as great but still a warrior so some reference can b made
