"We're going to demolish his body, upper body. His head? We're going to forget about his head," explained Gatti. "Once he slows down his head is going to be right there."
i think it makes sence, but mayweather i dont think is going to get tired.... gatti has to make a fight of it, a brawl!
I don't think there's anything Gatti can do to stop Floyd running his way to a wide unanimous decision.
He can punch Mayweather in his f***ing jaw and put him on the canvas. Then stand over the punk's limp corpse and say "how do you like that boy." Gatti is bigger and more skilled than Castillo and Mayweather basically lost to Castillo twice. Castillo is not as strong as Gatti and he is one dimensional in comparison to Gatti. He moves his head a little bit but all he really can do basically is plod ahead and fight in the pocket. Gatti's boxing skills are totally overlooked by practically everybody.
first u said gatti use the jab ur taller,,,gatti isnt taller than mayweather ,and his reach isnt longer than mayweathers,,, now u wanna say gatti is a better fighter than castillo,come on man,,u dont know boxing retire from writing in the forums,,,and u can feel anyone won any fight,,whats mayweathers record,,,say it with me,,,33 and 0 ,lmfaooooooo,,,Gatti is exactly what mayweather said he is,,a paper champion ,,C+ fighter at best but dont take his word for it,,just watch the fight......
Gatti is a better fighter than Castillo. Castillo's last fight was great against Corrales but Castillo has losses to guys with loosing records back in Mexico if you go to his record in boxrec and to other lower caliber opposition.
better boxer?

see mckay u gotta do ur research,,,mayweather almost always fights boxers taller than him,,,actually the guys who have troubled mayweather have been shorter than him,,,and to end all this non sense and to show u just talk to talk,,,gatti is an inch shorter than mayweather,,,so he can easily go over his jab,,,inch an speed and for the grand finally tko of mckay mayweathers reach is 72,,,gatti's 70,,im sure gatti is glad ur not in his corner,,,talkin all that shyt dont even know what ur saying,,,,"""dont reach with that jab mckay,,,cuz that right is comin right over it.....""""
Actually NO. How about Jose Luis Castillo. He was bigger and taller than Mayweather and most ringside observers believe he won his first fight against Mayweather and he did very well in the second fight as well in my mind the fight could have gone to either guy. And that fight took place of course at 135 pounds. Gatti is a bigger and stronger than Castillo and also a better boxer. And Jose Luis Castillo has no jab to speak of whereas Gatti has a very respectable jab.

say all that were true say gatti has this anthat in his arsenal,,,he's not gonna land it ,,,body shot all u want he's not gonna land to the body ,,only thing he's gonna land is either 1 his back,,or 2 his face on the canvas.......
Gatti's size advantage and jab and are going to make the difference in this fight as well as his superior punching power. I dont think Mayweather is exactly featherfisted but his punches are not gonna bother a guy like Gatti. Also it might only take one good left hook from Gatti to KO Mayweather. Mayweather was hurt by the featherfisted Corely. Mayweather is small. He will lose this fight and retread down in weight class.

Mckay u like the barney of the forums u live in ya own purple world,,,gatti dosent even speed when he drives u think he can out jab or even land his jab effectively against the speed of mayweather,,,ur brain aint on 30 second brain delay is it where u see thigs slower than they are do you,,,,man get a clue about boxing ,,,forget the weavin an bobbin,,,if gatti tries to use his jab with mayweathers speed he'll just counter it with the right over his jab,,only thing gatti should set up for is for jim lampley to say look at the heart on gatti he's trying to get up from that wheel chair,,,,hahahahahaha.z,,,shine ma shoes befo i slap you....
Gatti can keep Mayweather at range with his jab. He is not an idiot like Mayweather. Gatti's jab is good and he stick into to Floyd's chest and dicate his movement. Then Floyd like I said will revert to trying to fight Gatti in the pocket and slip and shit and is going to get nothing but in there. Mayweather has quite a small frame, a fact to many people are overlooking in this fight. He wont take Gatti's body punches well and depending on who the referee is Gatti with his superior strenght can bull Mayweather around like he is bitch, which he is after Saturday.
How is Mayweather gonna counter Gatti's jab when Mayweather is so much shorter than Gatti. He cant come over with anything. He does that lunghing in shit and jabs to the body. Gatti wont let him get away with that staying on the outside and jabbing to the body bullshit to steal rounds. It wont happen.

Mayweather can beat anyone at that weight,,,hatton beat an old tzou in a wrestling match,,,and now hatton is a class fighter,,is u outta ya mind,,,vivian harris is anotha big talker,,talked all that shyt about that ray olivera bout how he was an old man and that old man took him to school harris sayin yea that old man is good after the fight,,,and zab judah lost to tzou when tzou was in his prime ,,aint no way zab supa chump can beat Mayweather ,,mayweather is at his prime he'l scholl any nicca in that division ,,and he'll dominate zab too......shine ma shoes man befo i slap you........
I can understand why you like fighters like Judah and Mayweather you have about the same amount of class. A level which is slightly above of certain species of molusks.
Mayweather is gonna get KO'd. Gatti's size, jab, toughness and smartness is to much for that pinhead mayweather. And Mayweather's chin is untested and therefore suspect and he will be hit in this fight.
When you fight Gatti the more punches you throw the more you get hit.

I think Gatti can be effective with the jab and keep Mayweather at range. Not enough people bring the size and reach advantage Gatti has into this fight. I think having mayweather at range with his jab he can position mayweather into being hit with good left hooks to the body and head. If the jab is not effective then I would expect him to just to stalk and walk down mayweather and try to hurt him to the body as much as possible and look for big left hook opportunties to the head.
If Mayweather is doing bad against the jab then he will have to fight Gatti in the pocket and I think if he tries do that he will be KO'd.
who hit who.........
Mike Tyson put it best ill never forget dat shyt when he said in that funny azz voice he got,,,"""errybody got a plan till they get hit""",,Mayweathers speed will freeze Gatti like that ice cream truck that rolls thru ya block an brings all the kids in dont matter what they doin they run for that ice cream dont matter what gatti do he gonna get froze all this hype for a nothing fight just to get that pay per view money ,,Mayweather only loses if jesus makes his second appearence to mere mortals,,if u dont think jesus will show neither will gatti,,...........
Floyd knows Gatti is having a tough time making weight and I see Floyd moving in the center of the ring and throwing larges volumes of punches until Gatti goes down. And one final not Gatti is no where near a Castillo and Castillo is one of the best in fighters period, Gatti is not.
What People Don't Know or Understand about Floyd
First, this is not a personality test. This is a fight. And Floyd is a complete fighter, first and foremost. What I've heard that doesn't mean crap in this matchup is the following:
"Gatti has to make this a brawl, that's his only chance".
It is his only chance for getting knocked out quicker. Floyd is the BEST inside fighter out there, the best shoulder to shoulder fighter in the world...to think Gatti is going to beat him by brawling trying to get inside while Floyd is back pedaling trying to be Pernell Whitaker or Ray Leonard is a mistake. This cat fights inside better than Gatti does. For this fight, he's going to want to fight inside even more...not good for Gatti.
Another thing I've seen written are comparisons of Castillo and Gatti? Do you guys watch boxing...or know boxing? Castillo was world class when Floyd fought him and beat him...twice. I know some think Gatti is world class...but being popular and having a nice personality does not make you a world class fighter...as a matter of fact, every world class fighter he fought...has knocked him out or crushed him...i.e. De La Hoya
Im a big Gatti fan, but I agree with boxerdog. He will go in there thinking he can box with Mayweather. Big Mistake. His game plan should be to go in there and balls to the wall. and I doubt he will do it. He will try and hang with Floyd till the last couple rounds and then try to make something happen. But he will be to worn out to land the hardshots in succession. I predict a night of yelling at the T.V. saying "Goddamnit Gatti throw some shots!!"
