gatti's next fight is set

[abdiel2k3]

well we saw last nite tito dont make full 160 either
so thhis fight might take place at 154
either way i still pick DLH
same as b4
Trinidads still the bigger hitter
DLH can still be elusive
OR as we saw against hopkins he can also try to make it a strait up fight if he wants
but i dont think he'd risk that with tito
he wants to beat him for sure and knows that he can
with hopkins he knew he would most likey lose so he figured he was gonna at least go out in a blaze of glory
but with tito hed prolly do the same as the firts fight
except not take the last rounds off
DLH by KO

Gatti's one of my favorite fighters of today and not because of talent, cause the man gots a big-time heart, however I think some of y'all are crazy for thinking he'll beat either Cotto or Mayweather. I see Cotto knocking him out if not tko and Cotto is ready to go straight to him right now! Mayweather, to be honest the last full fight I saw of Ugly Boy Floyd was the one w/ Corrales and I 've seen highlights of him here and there since he moved up. I don't know what kinda power Mayweather brings to 140, but he's not gonna need bombs in both hands to beat Gatti silly, it may turnout to be a borefest just as long as Pretty Boy stays on the outside, cause he'll be potshottin' the overrated Gatti all-night. This Leija- Gatti matchup is something I'd rather see than the annhilation Gatti will receive from the 2 other fighters. I think Leija can pull a mild upset here, remember he just beat a very young speedster in Bojado, this is going off the subject but I think Bojado shouldn't have taken the fight w/ Leija he went up against a very good veteran it just wasn't time for the young kid to take someone on with Jesse James experience, Bojado should go down in weight he looks more like a natural 130-135 he doesn't have the same pop like he did at 130. I hope Bojado doesn't burnout cause the kid's got a world of talent and carry a good relationship with his trainer Buddy Mcgirt would definitely do wonders for his career

The same people that are saying Gatti will easily beat Leija are probably the same people that thought the old Pro Leija had no shot against a rising prospect in Bojado.When will you all ever learn?

Yeah though ok, Bojado was younger, less experienced. This obviously showed because he didn't go right after Jesse when he knocked him down like he should have. He gave Jesse enough time to put himself together again and mount an offense strong enough to get the decision. Theres no way he'd have a chance vs Gatti. Gatti hits so much harder than Bojado and goes right after you after your down. This will be 2 experienced fighters though one with the power advantage that will probably pave the way of the fight.

Yeah I remeber thinking that if Bojado would have piled on the pressure after that knockdown, he would have won the fight. I also think Bojado needs to ****-can mayweather. mayweather couldn't even make it to his fight. He had to devote his time to ruining another fighter.

Any fight with the name Arturo Gatti on it is always a possible candidate for Fight of the Year. He's one of my favorite fighters simply because he's a true warrior, always fights with passion and has the heart of a lion. However, at the moment he's not really the best at his weight class which is perhaps the hottest in boxing today. There's Tszyu, Mayweather, Cotto, Mitchell, Harris and Hatton. Simply WOW! Gatti's just biding his time with this proposed Leija fight. I see him winning but it's not gonna be easy against a good old veteran like Jesse James. JJL's coming off a tight but impressive win over a young talented fighter in Bojado. He's been through tough wars too against Tszyu, Ward, Lazcano, Mosley and de la Hoya - he's got the experience.

A win over Leija should set-up his next big payday against Cotto or Mayweather. I see Cotto knocking him out in a slugfest and Mayweather by way of a sleek boxing clinic. Bad fights but good paydays for him so I'd rather see him against untested Ricky Hatton. Should be another entertaining fight for boxing fans. This could go either way.
