Gatti vs Diego corrales @ lightwieght

[MikeBrew328]

I've always wanted that fight to happen, and it made sense because Diego was having trouble making 135, Gatti was too small for 147

Listen, guys who beat Jose Luis Castillo can probably handle Arturo Gatti...

Who did Arturo Gatti beat again that was any good, at all?

I was a pretty big Gatti fan. But I think he gets a little more credit than he should. Mainly because he was fun to watch, and involved in some wars. However, those wars were against no-so-great competition.

I would agree. To risk the wrath of some fans, he was a C- fighter at best.

Gatti was a top 10 fighter. But Chico was a top 3 or 4 fighter.

Man Sterling, I can't give you good K right now.
But when I can, you'll get it.
Good thread.

thx bro i gta say i thought of this fight happening and it wud of been so great its more of a fan favourite fight at lightweight.

Would be a excellent fight but i pick gatti cause hes tougher and has a better chin but corrales wudnet give up either.
Both two big hearts and power makes a great fight.

Did you just say someone is tougher than Corrales? Corrales just couldn't stay on his feet. He always got up though.

yeh but he didnt get up in the 2nd castilo fight so i think if he gets hit gd enough he wil stay down hopefully lol.
But the chin difference is big tho but i think i would give corrales advantage jus a little by power cause there both kinda big for lightwieghts anyway.

WOW!2 Of my fav fighters of all time,i got goosebumps when i seen this no joke.It would of been one of the all time great fights.Would of been a trilogy with chico winning 2

ahha same here i have become a fan of gatti to bt i always liked chico.
I duno hmm i thin corrales had the biggeer reach and possibly more power then gattibut its debatable not sure who had more power.
If they went to war corrales wud lose imo.

been a gatti fan of course bein from jersey and around AC all the time. loved to watch him fight. big fan of corrales too. i would think chico would take it though by a decision or late ko. just my opinion. defintly would be a bunch of knockdowns.
