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.
