Arturo Gatti vs. Floyd Mayweather, Jr.

This should be a great fight, Gatti fights are always exciting and the fight doesn't start until Gatti is bleeding. Hard to pick a winner, but I'm thinking Pretty Boy Floyd is just to fast and elusive, but if Gatti catches him square, lights out baby :) .

I'm a very big boxing fan, although the sport has go down considerably in recent years. I agree with you on the Tyson fight, not a dignified way of going out. I don't know what happened to him, he just lost "it".

Heavyweight boxing sucks, there is no talent

I will 100% agree with Polish, heavyweight boxing isn't the best division. The division where Eric Morales and Manny Pacquoio (sp?) is perhaps the best. Several good fights coming up though, the Hopkins fights should be a good one.

This is my full opinion on boxing
Theres is no talent in heavyweight
Lightweights don't hard enough for me to stay interested
The middleweights are really the fights worth watching now

Speaking of heavyweights, whatever happened to Klitschko? I thought that he was supposed to be the best fighter hands down once Lennox Lewis retired. However, I haven't heard anything about him in a long time (I have not had HBO since last August, so that may be why).

One of the Klitscko brothers is a good fighter, the other one sucks royally IMO, and he should retire, if he hasn't already. I haven't heard much from either, I think the one that is good got hurt recently. Middleweights are good, but I have to say, I've seen some all out wars recently at the lower weight classes. :)

There are wars, but that b/c a 150 Mexican can't knockdown another 150 Mexican b/c neither can hit very hard.

there's a great racial joke i could make here, but i''m not going to offend anyone. I just don't like seeing a guy taking an unfettered punch and look like nothing happened.
