    Khan probably turns Gatti's face to mush. Gatti gets cut or swelled up, but is he able to do one of his famous comebacks? A la the Rodriguez and Ruelas fights?

    I cant help thinking that if Ivan Robinson could pull it off twice (Just !) than Khan could too . but he had better keep those feet moving

    If Garcia can catch Khan, so can Gatti. Gatti had a better left hook.

    pointless thread
    'THUNDER'!!! gatti versus one of the most chinniest fighters ever
    Gatti also had very good boxing skills, he would have outboxed him anyway
    it wouldnt even be a good fight, gatti is a hall of famer, total mismatch, Khan best win is marcos maidana for christs sake HAHAHHA

    gATTI WOULD KNOCK HIM OUT EARLY, or late, no way does khan stand uo to gattis ower punches not a chance

    you think a glass jawed fraud like him who got ko'd by non punchers like drilzane, watson, limond, gomez, diaz could cope with gatti lol

    135,140, 147 it don't matter. A bloodied Gatti smashes his left hook on chicken neck Khan.

    Agree with most gatti would stop him. Gatti was brawler but he could box a little too and would never stop coming and punched hard at world level

    I would favor Khan, but going against Gatti with that chin? anything can happen.

    Gatti had decent boxing skills. "Very good" is an overstatement. He boxed better early on at 130, particularly against Patterson, but his "rebirth" at 140 of his boxing skills was largely exaggerated (big surprise) by HBO.

    Now Khan's skills are of course incredibly overrated, but he does have enough speed and straight punches to swell up or cut Gatti. Whether or not he ends the fight on his feet is a whole different story.
