Welterweight Arturo Gatti v Julio Cesar Chavez Jr 10
Both fighters must win their interim bouts
wow it should be a showcase bout for him. Now he will step up and fight a real opponent
nah, that little mf'er is ready for gatti. honestly, gatti's just a name. don't be surprised when jr. straight out bitches him.
agreed, i wont be surprised at all, gatti was taking a lot of punches against thomas daamgaard and he has only been beaten up more since. chavez wins easily, hopefully gatti will get stopped on cuts and be able to save a little pride.
Fuck yeah! I can't wait for Chavez Jr to show what he's got against someone with some experience and a respectable record.
BTW, my money is on Chavez. His jab is too good, his reach is too much, and his hook is a thing of beauty. Chavez KO5.
I was hoping the Gomez fight was going to be his last fight. To be honest I wouldn't be surprised if Gomez gave him a good fight and beat him. I feel also the "Contender" guys are overrated and not deserving of the fights they get, but Gomez I feel has a decent shot. I just dont want to see Gatti get hurt real bad and that could happen if he faced JCC Jr. It's a good step up for JCC Jr. from the fighters he has been facing. I can't wait for the day that JCC Jr. goes up against Andre Berto.
dont be trusting boxrec that much most of the times they are wrong look at vargas mayorga match that was scheduled to happen on may 5 and forrest baldomir which they had happening this past saturday.did any of thse fights happen.no but yet who know this time up maybe gatti chavez jr. will happen
gatti will go right through gomez... after all we all know that people from "the contender" are extremely overrated... look at manfredo vs a real fighter like calzaghe... or when jesse brinkley got the shit kicked out of him by an old and rusty robin reid
but there is no way in hell that gatti will beat JCC Jr. Chavez is a natural welterweight, whereas Gatti is blown up to 147. Plus Chavez has the height and reach advantage, is quicker and hits harder. HBO is pushing this fight just as a passing of the torch so more people can see JCC Jr. and hop on his bandwagon.
Arum confirmed it this past weekend. Chavez has a lot of road ahead of him - he fights on June 9 against, as Arum sold it "the last man to beat Julio Sr.", Grover Wiley. He then comes back August 4 on the David Diaz-Erik Morales undercard.
Should he win both fights, and Gatti beats Gomez, they will then collide in November. At which point Gatti will lose (probably by knockout)... and then receive another farewell fight next July.
Again, that's IF he beats Gomez.
he wont beat him or get to chavez jr

Holy shit that would be crazy if it stayed like that.
