    lol war?


    right

    duran would slick away from gattis thunder and bust his face up
    i think he'd stay out of the way of every hard punch without having to take a step back

    i think he'd be too swollen to see after a few rounds, if he can even stay on his feet.


    duran was a complete monster at 135
    gatti was a glorified clubfighter there.

      I think Duran woudnt mind going to go to war with Gatti thats why i put war.

      Also do you think Gatti is one of the worst fantasy fighters? You put him up against most people who like to fight like him and he will lose.

        Gatti would last as long as Duran wants to play with him. Which is probably not for very long.

        As far as head-to-head match-ups are concerned, Gatti does better at 130 lbs where he had a huge size advantage over most fighters.

          i get what you mean
          other than against floyd, when he simply couldnt handle the speed and accurracy, gatti was always down to scrap

          he was easy to hit
          that's what made him so endearing to the crowd

          he'd get all busted up fighting a cab driver.


          so yes, in a historic type matchup, where guys can handle his speed and power, a guy like arturo gatti would be easy pickings.

            Duran pounds him but the first 4 round are action packed and great.

            Gatti starts taking serious punishment and gets dropped
            Or corner stoppage around 9th round.

            But gatti on a good night could go the distance.

            Eitherway duran kicks his ass 10'outta 10'fights.

            Duran is an A fighter , gatti is B-

                  Gatti uses his wonderful defensive skills and ring discipline to outclass Duran and stop him.

                  Duran is no Angel Manfredy or Ivan Robinson.
