Arturo "Thunder" Gatti VS. Pretty Boy

[splittingatoms]

what i dont get is why if mayweather is this P4P best,,why is he fighting gatti.if he is so good he should fight the better opponents in that weight division.i wish that gatti would KO PGF(pretty girl floyd) in the first 10 seconds of the fight but it aint gonna happen.gatti is gonna get KOed within 5 rounds.

Hes fighting for money, why else does anyone fight nowdays?

Not really, Gatti is Floyd's tuneup for bigger fights, namely Tszyu, DLH and Mosley.

[Hisoka]

Like Vince said, it's just a tuneup. Bigger and better fights are on the way.

I think that there is a chance that PBF is so confident he might actually come out and try to KO Gatti and fight his fight.

Then this could get interesting........

The fight is definitly mayweathers to lose but I could see him pulling something ******,

Have you ever known Mayweather to come out swinging for the fences? Mayweather will slowly and methodically obliterate Gatti in route to victory.

i am not a *****boyfloyd fan. i think he's overrated. he has the most natural ability than any fighter in recent times. and he's been able to back up his loud mouth. but look at the fighters he's faught. i don't even consider his win over corrales.corrales was beat before he climbed into the ring.
gatti is going to need pbfs' help to win. and with pbf's clowning and maybe not being serious gatti may get it. pbf's power is not proven and gatti somehow wakes up when he's getting pounded on.
hope pbf goes to 147. then we'll see if he's aquired enough boxing skills because his power doesnt match a mosley,delahoya and some of the others.i just don't think he's that smart and has gotten by on his youth and natural abilities so far. time will tell

Corrales got his ass beat plain and simple, excuese outside of the ring dont matter. Floyd had problems too but he still beat the hell out of Chico.

pbf is sure enough to clown around with this fight coz he knows he can win over gatti.... if he runs, if he hides, and makes this a merry go round circus affair

Whatever anyone says about Arturo Gatti, make no mistake, he sure as hell ain't no bum. He's certainly not as good a boxer as Pretty Boy, but I'll bet my ass that he's a far superior fighter.
It's just two different approaches to boxing, and we can't say one suck because we like the other.
The next couple of months will show us fans what approach will prevail, with Floyd- Gatti and Kostya- Hatton.
Personally, I think the boxers will prevail rather convincingly, but I can see scenarios the other way.

Come to think about it, wouldn't Hatton- Gatti provide a fun match-up?

gatti late round KO.....unless Mayweather chooses to fight an amateur style fight and run.
