I put a couple points on Gatti but just cuz i like to root for underdogs.

the realist in me says this is gonna be all mayweather though.

but i'm paying for this ppv so i want it to be brutal, bloody, and go the distance =)))).

This fight could be closer than everyone thinks. I think Gatti will be the much bigger man (outweighing him by anywhere between 10 and 15 lbs) when they come into the ring. He will have the strength to apply the kind of pressure that Castillo did. Also, recall that Mayweather has those fragile hands. What is going to happen if, after dominating Gatti for 4-5 rounds with his uncanny speed, he hurts his hands again. How does he keep Gatti off of him for another 7-8 rounds?

I think you have to favor Mayweather, but things could get very interesting down the stretch.

Whatever happens... I jsut want a great fight. I'm pretty ****in psyched for this, it would suck to see a track meet.

This fight has a big "you never know" factor going into it...at least the hype is making it seem that way. I still have to go with Floyd, with the ref stopping it in, well, let's say round 8.

Mayweather by 10th round TKO...

**75th** · 06-24-2005, 11:19 AM

Gatti KO9

No doubt in my mind.

I threw $50 on Gatti. I'm thinking Gatti in 9.

Mayweather inside of 7 rounds.

At first I was thining Mayweather by decesion, but now after thinking it over more closely, I'm fairly sure its going to be Mayweather by KO in between round eight and ten.

I'm still putting $50 on gatti with the 5:1 odds, might as well. You never know he might get a lucky body shot in.
