    Whether he wins or loses, he'll do 1 more basic fight and a retirement fight in front of atlantic city against a quasi-bum to say goodbye. So I'd say at least 2 but probably 3 more (including Baldy obviously)

        [QUOTE=All Gatti has going for him against Baldomir is a bigger punch and it won't be enough because Baldomir has a great chin. I think Baldomir outworks him and wins a decision.[/QUOTE]

        After watching baldomir fight judah, i think hes too slow to beat gatti. the only reason he beat judah is because he outworked him which is because judah didnt fight half the time.

              I would love to see a Warrior who has given so much to the sport retire on top with all his facilities. If he wins I dont want to see that marred by him getting a beating to an elite fighter.

              But what made us love him (his heart)might be the same thing that hurts him in the end.

                it will be perfect,
                Gatti beat Baldomir for the WBC title, Hatton beat Collazo for the WBA title and they could have a title unification fight. And the winner(Hatton) of that could face PBF (IBF champ) for the U.D. welterweight chanpionship.

                hope this **** happens
                Remember PAULKIMLAX, if Gatti beats beats Baldy he would be considered the champ at 147, which means he is the linear champ, WBC champ and Ring champ, and will go in the books that he is man at welterweight. technically he would be undisputed, but its kinda hard to get ppl to believe that since PBF is @ 147.

                and im foing to agree w/ PBF34 here I think what needs to be done if Gatti beats Baldy (which the odds might be 2-1 for Gatti, since Baldy is the champ)and ur right PBF34 Gatti should not be looking past Baldy, he is very tough, but like I said in a previous post Gatti should make his first defense aginst Urkal or the Estrada Cintron winner.

                Then a possible shot against Hatton, the only fact is Gatti would be 35 and Hatton would be well into his prime, and it really comes down to if Gatti can box Hatton better than Tszyu, b/c I think Gatti is a stronger puncher than KT and Im only basing this on Leija said and he fought them both and Gatti actually stopped Leija a RD earlier too. But the age and the battles Gatti has been in will worry me if he fights Hatton in 2007

                  i think gatti should retire after his next loss (which will NOT be to baldy).

                    If Gatti beats Baldomir he should retire and go out on top.He deserves that much for being a warrior and giving the fans so many great fights.
