View Full Version : Gatti is no match for Floyd
bigdlb12 01-24-2005, 12:16 PM Gatti is fun to watch vs. Manfrey , Ward and other fighters of lesser magnitude. Gatti vs Leija will be a good fight, all depends on Leija, if he is willing to stand up to Gatti's punching power.
However to think that Gatti could go 12 rounds vs. the speed and power of PBF is observe.
PBF is too good for Gatti

GATTI WILL WIN AGAINST FLOYD, PLUS FLOYD WILL HAVE TO TASTE A FIRST LOSS IN BOXING AS A PRO. ROY JONES, LOST LEWIS LOST EVERYONE LOSES TIME FOR FMJ TO LOSE
tri4ben2 01-24-2005, 12:28 PM Does the work 120-108 mean anything to you?
bigdlb12 01-24-2005, 12:30 PM Does the work 120-108 mean anything to you?not @ 140, now if we were to face PBF vs Shane Mosley or DLH, different story. I can see either one of these fighters beating PBF @ 147 or 140,but I know DLH and SSM wont go down to 140

I am not saying that PBF can not be beat, but that Gatti is not the man to do it. At his age and sytle, gatti takes too much punches and the way PBF punches and speed combo, it will be too much for Thunder Gatti
rapidrio 01-24-2005, 12:36 PM If Gatti is able to land on Floyd, we are gonna see a new dance from Floyd...But I think Floyd will cut Gatti up all night long.

yeah if Gatti is able to, Gatti only landed a total of 80 something punches on DLH, and PBF can move just alil quicker than DLH.
Yeah PBF will cutt Gatti and it will be a long night, however I think that PBF will ko/tko Gatti within 8 rounds, remember he went down on a Oscar De la hoya uppercut in the 1st round
But remember that PBF fought Castillo and JLC can hit hard

TRUE...you are right about that. I just want to see PBF fight someone worth watching. Gatti, Tszyu, Cotto any of those fights will be fun to watch!
Clay AikSkins 01-24-2005, 12:58 PM PBF will lose one day it's true....but not to the likes of Gatti whose eyes swell as soon as the bell goes ding ding.

you're forgot an important point, oscar is 5'11 with a much bigger frame than pb******, floyd is 5'7 and is pushing his frame to the limit at 140, he hits nowhere near as hard as oscar does, plus gatti was stepping up to 147 for the payday, he knew he would get his ass kicked. mayweather just beat a godam stiff, you heard it here first, pbf WILL NOT kayo Gatti, he might win by decision, but he wont knockout gatti. i hope pbf fights tzsyu and literally gets decapitated by a straight right!!!!!!

I tend to agree. But who would you like to see Floyd fight then who could give him a good fight?
bigdlb12 01-24-2005, 01:11 PM TRUE...you are right about that. I just want to see PBF fight someone worth watching. Gatti, Tszyu, Cotto any of those fights will be fun to watch!
Cotto will be fun to see in there with PBF, I think Cotto will beat PBF one day,but for the next 3 years to needs to build up his resume, (dont fight PBF untill 3 years or more)
bigdlb12 01-24-2005, 01:13 PM I tend to agree. But who would you like to see Floyd fight then who could give him a good fight?
@ 140, S.Mitchell, Kostya, Cotto (now will give a good fight and thats it, in the future I think Cotto will be able to beat PBF)Zab and spinks, @ 147 DLH and Mosley
SonnyG8R 01-24-2005, 01:17 PM I agree about Cotto. He has future star written all over him.
bigdlb12 01-24-2005, 04:01 PM I agree about Cotto. He has future star written all over him.
we need a fighter like him
marvelous_TG 01-24-2005, 04:33 PM i think floyd knocks gatti out. late, i think he will be extra prepered for a gatti or a other big fight.
DR. FREECLOUD 01-24-2005, 04:55 PM after watching the last few pbf fights i have come to the conclusion that he is alot like rjj in hte aspect of what its going totake to beat him. everyone stops punching once pbf starts letting those amazingly fast fists go. if you want to beat pbf you have to keep coming with the pressure when he throws. i don't think that a gatti fight with pbf would be anything like dlh. dlh was much bigger than pbf. gatti would win this one.
Floydmayweather 01-24-2005, 04:56 PM Floyd is to far to fast and slick for Gatti. I think PBF and Zoo would be very close and i hope it happens this year.

Yeah, only problem with that is that RJJ used to be fast enough to get away from that bullrush/constant pressure. Floyd on the other hand still is fast enough to evade that sort of stuff. Gatti has a puncher chance, but thats about it IMO.
bigdlb12 01-24-2005, 05:03 PM NICE WAY OF THINKING, sorry for the caps

....I agree 100% and the same thing goes if he ever steps in the ring with Zoo. Mayweather and Zoo are out of his league and would defeat him pretty soundly.
we need a fighter like him
...Yeah, I like that Cotto kid too and I think he is good for boxing.
wordsmith 01-24-2005, 06:38 PM Don't be so fascinated with speed, that doesn't guarentee a victory. Speed kills but power destroys. Floyd has great power but if Gatti catches him I swear on my life he will run for the rest of the night. All of you keep saying that Floyd can take a good shot don't ****ing make me laugh, chop chop made him stumble so what would Gatti make him do. And if he begins to run for the entire night with Gatti stalking that will look bad for Floyd in the eyes of the judges. So I think Floyd can beat him on points maybe but, if Gatti touches him with the thunder I think it could swing Gatti's way. But know way in hell would Floyd ko Gatti
adeelr 01-24-2005, 06:49 PM i dont think you can make a prediction over gatti and mayweather fight..you cant say that he is not good enuff for him...Gatti is a good fighter and a good boxer as well, i m very sure that mayweather carries respect for him...you can look at fights like robinson and lamotta, lamotta didn't compare to the skills of robinson, but he beat him..Gatti is a pound4pound fighter for sure.
Sister Sledge 01-24-2005, 08:16 PM Floyd would rape Gatti, plain and simple.
phallus 01-24-2005, 11:21 PM Floyd is to far to fast and slick for Gatti.
Floyd is going to give poor Arturo a boxing lesson, and probably the fight will be stopped by the ref late. Gatti will show us all how tough he is, he'll take a beating. Tszyu's power can **** PBF up, KT is patient, disciplined and a big puncher - he won't stop coming after Floyd until he gets him hurt. a prime Kostya can get to PBF and KTFO him, he's very effective at applying the pressure, and if he were to swarm PBF with power punches it could become a very ugly night for Floyd indeed
Floydmayweather 01-25-2005, 01:56 AM Zoo will give Floyd a tough fight but Gatti is a one dimensional fighter who is to slow, and to easy to hit.
mr. bojangles 01-25-2005, 02:47 AM Arturo hasn't fought anyone near the skill, speed and accuracy of PBF. Gatti looks good and effective when someone stands in front of him and trade punches (like Ruelas, Rodriguez, Ward...). PBF will prove to be way too fast and will give Gatti a neat boxing lesson.
xrhythmxnxbluesx 01-25-2005, 03:16 AM pretty boy will win easily...
pimpin2 01-29-2005, 11:46 AM PBF and all the top 140's are to much for Gatti. I'm a fan of Gatti but at most he's a B+ fighter nothing more nothing less.
trephination 01-29-2005, 11:57 AM I don't see anyone within 20 lbs. of 140 touching mayweather in the ring. and i'm not even much of a fan of his.
