its offical MAYWEATHER VS GATTI JUNE 11th

I'm a huge Gatti fan and I want him to win but Mayweather will wipe the floor with him.

Floyd is gonna box circles around Arturo for a 12 round UD. Maybe even a later stoppage.

pbf is very fast and has less power. gatti is not too slow and has power. gatti has improved his accuracey as seen against jesse james. chin wise gatti has proven that he has a a good one. dlh knocked him down in the first but why was the fight stopped in the 5th? dlh had opened up a cut and was basically schooling gatti. gattis corner throws in the towel. prolly because of the schooling he was getting and the cut that later required 13 stiches. so his chin has proven to be sturdy. both tkos were due to cuts. he has taken much more abuse than pbf could ever give him. the only way pbf wins is if gatti cuts badly or if it goes to the cards. pbf will definately have a higher output and connect % that would give him a decision if he follows up with good defense effective aggressiveness and ring generalship. i keep hearing about floyds defense which i agree is very good. however, he tends to get careless and when he does he gets caught. he doesn't want that to happen against gatti. if he does he will be floored. gatti is known for being a good finisher. i would have to say that corrales may have been the closest to i a fight like gatti for pbf. but corrales didn't stick the jab and he swung from way outside looking for a ko. to be honest i have no idea who i would pick as the winner in this fight. i would tend to lean towards pbf. but gatti definately has the thunder for the makings of a huge upset.

i dont really mind the venue, its not like im going there to watch it live, the only thing i dont want is it getting the home cooking decision may the best figher win

By the way, this fight should not be Pay Per View. There is no way this gets 200,000 buys.

If the fight is in AC, 12000 people are guarenteed to be there. About 11,000 will be Italian Guido types, but a packed house is a packed house. The people will come to see Gatti fight. If you put the fight somewhere else, you risk not being able to sell out the fight. Mayweather does not have enough of a fan base to sell out any random arena.

whats the big problem with going to see it live, you can get plane tickets cheap now, coming from los angeles to atlantic city is like $250. if you live closer its even cheaper than that. with tickets and hotel you could probably just spend 500 maybe a little more for a weekend of boxing. and you have 5 months to raise the money lol

I am sick of gatti always fighting at the boardwalk! ok we all know he can sell the hell out of that place but how is he gonna get new fans in different areas if he does not allow other towns to watch him live? they should fight at staples center or las vegas other venues, cause I would sure want to watch him live. No, they should fight in Jersey. Better atmosphere and more money for Gatti guaranteing a sellout and for pbf coming to Arturo's home turf. For Gatti to win he's gonna need a knockout which I think he has a good chance of doing if he can beat Floyd's speed.

No Thanks.

I think this is good for boxing because gatti will be bloodied and beat and everyone will think of rocky and they will finally get there moneys worth because alot of people who are not boxing fans are sick like that they just want to pay to watch someone get beat to a pulp that is why tyson was so famous to the mainstream which is kinda sad.

true. it is funner to watch a packed house! but for boxing fans we kinda get tired of that same venue stuff.

This fight is going to be great, because of what McGirt has done with Gatti. I expect a full blown war and Mayweather getting KO'd in 8. What McGirt has done for Gatti wont help him in this fight. That just helps him to get past the C level fighters to get to this point. He wont out box Floyd. It will be toe to toe in the middle of the ring and may the best man win

I said in another threa that what people saying about Gatti packing the house is overated because he always fights in his hometown at AC. In this case though they should fight there. You want a big PPV fight and you want the house to be full. Also it brings alot of excitement if the crowd is going to be rooting for Gatti

1 week after Hatton and Zoo. It should set up a good winner vs winner meeting if the 2 networks can come together
