Let's have some predictions for the sweet science!



Video of the pre-fight press conference (big video too):

I'm thinking Mayweather for the win, most probably by decision. As much of an asshole as he was during the during the pre-fight press conference (and yes, I loved watching him get owned by Vivian Harris) I can't pick Gatti as the winner of this fight. As much as I want to see Gatti take the win, I just can't see it happening. PBF is a dick, but he's one hell of a good fighter.

he is a good figther, but I want Gatti to win, I heard Gatti has been really trying hard to work on his boxing more instead of a punching stand point..

soooo....Gatti + his natural attitude + more boxing skills = one hell of a fighter.

Mayweather is quick though. Good tatics and all....soo its ognna be one hell of a fight.
Any pubs/bars/resturants showing this fight? i anna go out and watch it.

Mayweather is by far a better boxer. Gatti will probably be able to hang in there the full fight, so he could still possibly catch him with one good shot. Should be a gooder.

Mayweather all the way. He is a dick, but that is what makes it interesting! The press conference was awesome!

I'm very dissapointed with the outcome of that fight. Gatti has taken bigger beatings than that in the past and not thrown in the towel, I think he realized Mayweather was way to quick for him.

itll likely be shown as a rerun, but it wasn't what i thought it would be. i hoped mayweather would get shitkicked for his cockyness but turned out he really is the best pound for pound boxer :(

Yeah I thought Gatti would have lasted longer. Mayweather is fast as hell though. I think landed punches were 17% to 52%. :nut:
