    I tried to tell you that weight isn't gonna help Mike, he's a shot fighter.

    I've been involved with boxing for many years, and if there's one thing I can see most clearly, it's when a fighter becomes shot.

    Gatti has been involved in some GREAT fights over the years, and I love watching the guy fight... But he will not beat Mayweather. (Hey I don't like Mayweather either and it would be a fantastic end to Gatti's career to go out beating a guy like Mayweather, but it ain't gonna happen).
    My Tyson weight logic is compeltely valid.

    Tyson record below 220 pounds undefeated

    Tyson record above 230 1-3

    Why do you think Gayweather is so invinciable? He already lost to Castillo and got a gift descision. And in my opinion Gatti is better than Castillo.

      Mckay, you're sounding a little deluded...

      There's a time when even the biggest fan of a fighter has to face the fact that there guy's not got it anymore.

You cant let yourself get bullied around and look to counterpunch like Tzyu did. You have to stand and FIGHT this guy.
        gatti si a more gangerous puncher than zoo now.

        your a ****ing cluless idiot mate.

        though i do hope gatti beats PBF.

        but no way is gatti more of a dangeorus puncher than kostya thats just bollox.

          What are you talking about. I predicted McBride to win.

          I said straight up on the Tyson McBride predictions thread.

          "I think McBride might whoop Tyson" Then everybody jeered me. Then they apologized.

              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.
              Leija just won a hard fought decision against Bojado who was a very good prospect. Had he been as old as you say, Bojado would have ripped him apart. Tszyu broke his eardrum, Gatti knocked him out.

              As for Dorin, this guy had plenty plenty of fight left in him. You don't get old cuz of your age, more of how much punishment you've taken in the ring and he's only had 22 fights. Unefeated who drawed with Spaddy where most saw him win then gets knocked out in two rounds.

              Gatti ain't p4p king but the guy ain't as unskilled as everyone makes him out to be.

                I don't think Mayweather is invincible... I think Hatton would beat Mayweather.

                But I've got a sneaky feeling Mayweather's doing a Roy Jones Junior, and fighting the weakest opponent and then gonna move up to welterweight and successfully avoid all the danger fighters at 140lb.

                  Dont you ever put Roy Jones Jr and GAtti in the same sentence. He is fighting Mayweather is he not. He fought De La Hoya he fought Rodriguez, Ward and a bunch of others at the top of the game.

                  Outside of Tzyu I would say with full confidence that Gatti has fought better opposition than Hatton.
