If Gatti wins this month, do you want to see him fight Hatton?

    hatton wins this easily.....will be exciting with KDs.

    but why gattis deserves another chance i have no idea....this fight is worthless for the fans - we deserve to see cotto/hatton/mayweather fight each other. How many "tune up" fights do these guys need.

      Arturo Gatti is one of the best draws in boxing, and that's not disputable. That is why Gatti fighting these guys makes sense. As far as the Oscar point, that's true but Oscar was big for 147. I think Oscar's frame fit him most naturally at 154, although he was able to be the big man at welterweight. Gatti-Mosley would put fannies in the seats but I think Shane's speed would be the difference. Plus I think Shane really has his eyes on Judah/PBF if he gets by Vargas. Say this about Shane, he challenges himself better than anyone with fights. Actually, Arturo proved that too by fighting Floyd which makes them two of my favorites

        i think this fight would be a foy candidate i know gatti looked bad in his last fight but honestly who does not look bad against pbf?....gatti has a good chance to win this fight because it would be a brawl and that is his type of fight ...he will not have to deal with the pbf type speed...and hatton is not a great boxer...hatton has not been in the wars gatti has been in so i belive he has the advatage in this fight.. his pressure type style will cause gatti problems but it will make for a great fight...hatton also has the stamina to take the fight to gatti for 12rnds.....this fight ends with both guys cut, but gatti getting the worst of it hatton wins by tko due to cuts between rnds. 6-9...

          Nah, Gatti should retire after his next fight...He has taken too much punishment already.

            For me it all depends on how Gatti is going to show up in his incoming fight. If he goes in there breathing fire and he completely dominates his opponent despite tough opposition then why not give him a shot at Hatton?

            We only have our perceptions but it's only Gatti himself who knows if he honestly have a serious chance to defeat Hatton. So what ever Gatti's decission is, I'm with him.

              I think Floyd may look to continue to move up in weight if he beats Judah.

              When we are talking about boxing and the matchups we would like to see and the predictions that we make the "if" word is naturally going to come up Bozo...right?

              So what you are saying is that if Floyd beats Zab he is then going to campaign at 154? Not disagreeing with you I just think that Floyd is not gung hoe on fighting a guy who is not going to let him breath inside the ropes...

              Regardless of Floyds skills Hatton will put Jr. thru hell and Floyd figures why go thru hell? In my opinion Ricky Hatton would give Floyd his toughest fight from 140-160, some may think that is ****** but I think its the truth.

                      I'm afraid of this too. Hatton is the guy who will beat Floyd, if given the chance.
