VBOOKIE EVENT ARTURO GATTI VS FLOYD MAYWEATHER (WBC 140 LB TITLE)JUNE 25TH, 2005

[elgigante]

The 140 lb class turns out what on paper looks to be another quality bout as Arturo "Thunder" Gatti takes on "Pretty Boy" Floyd Mayweather this Saturday June 25th at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. Gatti comes in sporting a record of 36-6 with 30 KO's and holds wins over quality opponents such as James Leija and 2 victories over Micky Ward. Mayweather sports azn undefeated mark of 33-0 with 22 KO's and has beaten both men involved in this years FOTY so far, Jose Luis Castillo and Diego Corrales. The matchup question here is will Gatti be able to lure Floyd into a brawl, which is his best shot at winning or will Floyd be content to sit outside all night and pick his shots with superior speed? Let your bucks do the talking people as this will be open until 12 PM day of the fight.

you have my answer chairman. but nobody else paid the fee so they dont get the secret to easy money ;)

As Crokick pointed out in the Gatti/Mayweather discussion thread going on in the forum, Floyd does have brittle hands but so does Gatti. Hand problems could lead to a deicison win either way but more than likely to Floyd IMO.

I stuck down 5k on Mayweather by KO, i think he'll win by decision but the odds are way better for a ko.
