My understanding is that HBO is very interested in making a fight between Arturo Gatti and Paul Malignaggi for July 14. Personally, this surprises me. On the surface, it looks good: you've got Italian-American vs. Italian-Canadian, New Jersey vs. New York, boxer vs. puncher. That's the "paper" matchup. But it is truly hard to believe that they would want to put something like this before the public after Malignaggi's non-performance against Edner Cherry this past weekend. [details]

I read somewhere ('the other site') that Gatti doesn't want to fight Maligaggi because 'they are friends', pretty funny stuff.
In other words, he knows he'd get outboxed and embarrassed.
Gatti-bum, Mesi-bum=Not interested and possible last straw with HBO.Comment
