    Mayweather vs Gatti is a mismatch. Floyd will take him out late.

      How I wish for KT & Floyd to face eachother. Floyd's very talented but runs his mouth too much. He better be careful or he might get what he wishes for. We'll see how ****y he is when Tszyu connects with the first good right hand.

      Fighters have been calling out Tszyu for years & talking ****...but he doesn't mind..he lets his fists do the talking and unlike the majority of Titleholders out there, he will fight anywhere on the planet like a REAL World Champion.

      Oh, & all you Hatton supporters out there...MEN Arena is gonna be mighty quiet come fightnight...It'll be over inside 6 rounds...Kostya has too much experience & skill...

        if mayweather is as ****y in the ring as he has been out of the ring, then he could be in for trouble......gatti does have a big heart and a big punch..........and we all know how mayweather couldn't handle the brawling castillo...he lost that first fight.....and the same could happen with gatti.......

            now this is what i really don't understand with those boxing bigwigs. why cant they put matchups that truly matters? look at this:

            barrera-fana was bull**** on paper. still was a PPV

            castillo-corrales was on paper a real matchup. good it it was free on tv and the seats were empty

            what do these businessmen really want? why cant they just give what the boxing fans truly deserve?

Would you even care if Floyd was ****y and getting his ass KO'ed?
              As a boxer, Floyd doesn't have any flaws that I can see. As a person, I think he's lacking. He complains that "they" make him the bad guy, but he makes himself the bad guy with his words and actions outside of the ring. I know he's one of the best, if not the best boxer going right now, but I really don't like him and I'm not going to cheer for him. I probably wouldn't care if he was ****y and getting KO'ed, because I wouldn't have to listen to him much longer. There is a big difference between confidence and disrespect. Ali said some things in his time that I really don't agree with, but at least he was somewhat charming and funny.

                  Floyd says:

                  "Gatti didn't really want this fight. This fight was pushed onto Gatti and he really doesn't want it. He was going to be stripped of his WBC belt; a belt he really didn't even win because it was vacant after they stripped Kostya Tszyu. I never won a vacant title in my life. Every belt that I won I actually went out there and beat a champion for it. "

                  Ok, well, when he wins this fight, which I agree with the majority in thinking it's a mismatch and will be a near shutout, he will have won a belt without beating a real champion, per his own words. If I had to hunt in this interview to find this contradiction, I probably wouldn't point it out, but he raves about how he beats real champions for belts two seconds after saying Gatti isn't a real champion. Pretty funny...but I am dying to see PBF-Tszyu or PBF-Cotto...

                    No, because his fans don't get in there and fight for him. You know I already know how a fight like this is going to go down there. He gonna get in there, throw a few punches which he gonna miss. He'll probably land them on the shoulder or the arm and you know how the crowd is, they gonna cheer. I'm gonna relax, get to doing what I'm doing and I'm gonna punish him. And once I get to punishing him, don't nobody gonna be cheering no more. I'll make the whole arena quiet. You'll see; it'll be a total mismatch.
                    This is probably what's going happen in the actual fight, word for word.

                    I don't like Mayweather's attitdue most of the time but I am glad that he is calling out the cult of St.Arturo Gatti. He's right about Mickey Ward. He's right that Gatti only won a vacated title against a subpar opponent. He might even be right about the press conference fiasco. The hype that has built up around Gatti over the past year and a half has been ridiculous.

                      Gatti's hype is of course an HBO creation, they needed somebody, ANYBODY, to replace DLH after he lost to Mosley again and looked bad vs. Sturm...
