The more I think about it the more I see it happening. Not in 6 months or anything like that but the more I read into Zab's career the less it impresses me.
I give him credit for his win against spinks in st louis, but i am not the only one hear who questions spinks talent
to continue on Zab's resume' a KO by the hands of KT needed a split decsion over corely and lost to spinks in the first fight. His biggest win was maybe junior witter??
and the kicker micky ward went the distance w/ this guy
But im lookin down the line and Gatti goin to be almost 34 in his nxt fight in 2006 so I wouldnt like to see him take a fight like this, maybe in 2002 I would have liked to see a Gatti/Judah match up. for now maybe Gatti goes after Estrada or someone on those lines at 147.
I dont rate Judah as highly as most people do but he'd beat Gatti, there on a different level in terms on ability. Gatti maybe had a chance a few years ago but Judah would punish him now.
Gatti's gotta fight a mediocre 147. He'll carry the weight well, so he'll be stronger at 147, but so will his opponents. I think the top guys are a little too much for him to handle now. His face has just taken too much damage. 1 jab and he starts to swell up. I'm not sure if he'll even be able to go 12 rounds anymore, unless he fights someone that has really soft hands. I think Judah would beat him fairly easily. It's just the wrong fight for Gatti. The thing is, I wouldn't be surprised if Gatti gets offers from some of the top guys at 147 if he wins his first fight in that division. Gatti is still one of, if not the biggest name in boxing right now, and getting a PPV bout with him is the best way to build your image and increase your fan base. Even if Gatti struggled through a low rank 147, I bet he'll still get an offer from a top 10 welterweight.
Edit: Oh yah ... Gatti has to do one more fight in Montreal.
Give it a rest man. Gatti would get murdered by Zab.
1) Micky went the distance because everyone runs from him
2.) Zab would stand and trade with Gatti, Killing him in the process.
Your right, I second what Knives said...
Pinoy_Texan, DLH didn't out slick him ... he met him ring center and left him a smoking, smoldering hulk in place!
I think the next guy who meets Tszyu is very unlucky ... he's stinging riht now but I think he still has enough ability left to stop most guys at that weight.
He's gonna make a statement against the next guy he views from an opposing corner.

Yo, I like Gatti as much as the next guy. The guy is pure heart, but we already found out that he has problems against slick boxers(De La Hoya, Mayweather), plus Zab is a lefty which always presents lots problems.
yea I asked the some question in another thread hell it's good for both fighters because it would be another huge payday
to answer the question I would have to go with tyzu but I would root for gatti
None of that sub par boxing shit from gatti though if he tries that he will but a straight right from tyzu and that will be the end of it, he has to brawl and get in close and not give tyzu enough distance.
Micky Ward said Zab was the greatest fighter he ever faced, and arguably the best professional fighter alive. I never was convinced after the Tszyu fight he was inferior. I think he would knock KT's ass out cold now. He had his ass reeling in the beginning of the fight, and if not for the flash knockdown, followed by premature getup, would have beat him.
Hence the rematch, and My "What If Analysis".
Lucky fucking punch If I ever saw one. Gatti could not withstand the force of the horde.

gatti beats Zab at 147? give me a minute, i can't type cause i'm laughing so hard...the truth is i don't think i want to see Gatti and Judah in the ring. Mayweather will make arturo bleed but he won't really hurt him too bad, Judah has fast hands and he's a big puncher, he could fuck Gatti up big time. Margarito would end Gatti's career, his speech would be slurred worse than Holy's. No, Gatti gets his brains scrambled at 147. The fight i want to see is Judah - Margarito, then we'll find out who the toughest motherfucker at 147 is, and between those two i think it's margarito
I'm saying Zab wasn't running. You make it sound like he was being like Spinks against Mayorga or Hakkar against Hopkins or something. Zab was still hitting Ward at will. Backing up doesn't equal running. That would mean Lennox Lewis did a shitload of running himself, which I wouldn't say.
Right and you have a point there, importantly what I meant to say was: Nobody has ever backed Ward up. He comes straight in to fight. I should have restated that:
Everyone Runs or Clowns Ward. Zab even said himself......it was his biggest win: because he was facing someone who really did not give a fuck.
