    whats the big problem with going to see it live, you can get plane tickets cheap now, coming from los angeles to atlantic city is like $250. if you live closer its even cheaper than that. with tickets and hotel you could probably just spend 500 maybe a little more for a weekend of boxing. and you have 5 months to raise the money lol

      If the fight is in AC, 12000 people are guarenteed to be there. About 11,000 will be Italian Guido types, but a packed house is a packed house. The people will come to see Gatti fight.

      If you put the fight somewhere else, you risk not being able to sell out the fight. Mayweather does not have enough of a fan base to sell out any random arena.

        By the way, this fight should not be Pay Per View. There is no way this gets 200,000 buys.

              so predictions
              i think mayweather will hurt gatti plenty, but don't be surprise if gatti pulls of something, i honestly dont know who to pick
              PROS AND CONS
              Pros for gatti
              experience, been at 140 longer, fightin in fav place, determination and heart, power

              mayweather
              speed, boxing skills, power


              CONS for gatti
              chin, wanting to brawl

              mayweather
              over confident, legal issues


              THIS IS JUST bASIC Ill think of other stuff later

              This is gonna be another good one. Mayweather being a smart boxer will never brawl. He'll frustrate Gatti chasing him all around the ring. But I'm not counting out Gatti one solid punch from this guy might change Mayweather's movements.

              It is still way too early.

                pbf is very fast and has less power. gatti is not too slow and has power. gatti has improved his accuracey as seen against jesse james. chin wise gatti has proven that he has a a good one. dlh knocked him down in the first but why was the fight stopped in the 5th? dlh had opened up a cut and was basically schooling gatti. gattis corner throws in the towel. prolly because of the schooling he was getting and the cut that later required 13 stiches. so his chin has proven to be sturdy. both tkos were due to cuts. he has taken much more abuse than pbf could ever give him. the only way pbf wins is if gatti cuts badly or if it goes to the cards. pbf will definately have a higher output and connect % that would give him a decision if he follows up with good defense effective aggressiveness and ring generalship. i keep hearing about floyds defense which i agree is very good. however, he tends to get careless and when he does he gets caught. he doesn't want that to happen against gatti. if he does he will be floored. gatti is known for being a good finisher. i would have to say that corrales may have been the closest to i a fight like gatti for pbf. but corrales didn't stick the jab and he swung from way outside looking for a ko. to be honest i have no idea who i would pick as the winner in this fight. i would tend to lean towards pbf. but gatti definately has the thunder for the makings of a huge upset.

                  Floyd is gonna box circles around Arturo for a 12 round UD. Maybe even a later stoppage.

                    I'm a huge Gatti fan and I want him to win but Mayweather will wipe the floor with him.
