      Gatti can easily beats Hatton
      Hattons beat Zoo.
      Mayweather will beat Hatton.
      Zoo can easily beat Mayweather. He's the type of fighter Zoo likes.
      An elim fight they have now still wouldn't decided it.
      I think a Gatti and zoo fight would be awesome

      Gatti can beat maywether if Gatti slugs it out like Hatton did to Zoo.
      Mayweather likes a slow paced fight so he can use the left shoulder and leave his right hand high. He'll get exposed in a slugfest with his style. In a slugfest Roger has to drop the right hand to throw punches and that is leaves open his biggest weakness in his style, an exposed rightside jaw.

        If Hatton rematches Tszyu, Tszyu will be the king again.

        Until then, the one and only KING is Hatton.

        We all know that Floyd is skillful, Gatti has a huge heart, and that Vivian Harris is young and powerful, but that is not enough.

        Mayweather hasn't achieved much thus far in the 140lbs division and therefore can not be considered a king yet.

        So fellas, you can't take the status away from Ricky Hatton.......he definitely deserves to be as he beat the man who dominated the division for a decade.....

          i think KT has already given up the game. not for being a quitter, but i think he's just move on...

          if PFB wins over gatti, it's a toss up between floyd and hatton

            Zoo would not easily beat Mayweather. Also Mayweather will never get exposed because he fights only one style of fighta nd has the skills to take other fighters out of their game. The dismantling of Gatti will be a little preview of what Hatton has to look foward too.

              Mayweather will also Ko Hatton after a few tough rounds. He is to fast and is to accurate for someone who walks straight in.

                I have to say Hatton is the linear champ and therefore he is king even if he is still relatively unproven. I think he needs to beat the Mayweather/Gatti winner and Cotto to put it beyond any doubt.

                PS. I didn't leave Harris out by accident.

                  I don't think it'll be a toss up between the two. Floyd beating Gatti doesn't come close to Hatton beating Tszyu.

                  I know Gatti has a lot of fans and he is an exciting fighter, but he looks shot these days. He won't beat Floyd Mayweather.

                  If Floyd wants to be the king at 140lbs Then he has to dethrone the king at 140lbs, and that means taking on Ricky Hatton.

                    What has made you think Gatti looks shot these days. All these early round KO's he has been coming up with lately? Is that it?

                    If I could see any fight at 140 it is Gatti vs Hatton. I think Gatti and Hatton are the best in the division. I think Gatti will beat Gayweather. Hatton vs Gatti would be a total brawl. Both Hatton and Gatti though have underrated boxing skills.

                      Gatti's level of competition is terrible for a WBC champion...

                      I've seen Gianluca Branco fight a few times on Eurosport and he's not really a very good fighter... yet he took Gatti to a close points descion.

                      James Leija is OLD OLD and tired... As is Leonard Dorin...

                      As soon as Gatti steps in the ring with someone under 35yrs of age and a bit more talented, (i.e. Mayweather) he's gonna look extremely old and shot. You'll see when the two fight.
