Gatti - Mayweather

Boxing is a pastime of mine, and while I don't keep the best tabs on the sport, I know a good fight when I see one:
Big puncher vs. skilled boxer is usually a potent formula for fistic fireworks. That's the expectation Saturday night at Atlantic City's Boardwalk Hall, where WBC super lightweight champion Arturo "Thunder" Gatti puts his title on the line against top-ranked contender "Pretty Boy" Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Mayweather is fast, as in Muhummad Ali fast. Gatti is a great fighter, takes punishment and throws hard, but in the contest of speed vs. strength, I'll take speed.

There's no way I'm buying the PPV though, might have to find a different location or just catch the highlights after the match.

Mayweather in 7. KO.

I didn't purchase the PPV either, but I was tempted to. I thought Gatti had a chance, but Mayweather can back up that mouth of his.

Maybe I'll be able to catch a replay at some point.

I didn't get a chance to catch it either, although I certainly took a look at the headlines.

Gatti didn't even hold even. Too bad - I thought he would have laid a few punches on him and slowed down the fight.
