    C'mon, Corrales by Kayo. It isn't that hard to see.

    Corrales, definately. At 130-135.

    Although 140 was never his weight, so not sure how he'd look there.

    It would be a shoot out and in those kind of fights anything can happen,i dont see this going past five rounds.

    Cant really pick one over the other but it would be a ****ing war.

    I think although it would be a highly explosive, entertaining matchup, one would have to favor Corrales IMO... just a level above Gatti IMO. But Gatti and his punch might match up well for the come forward Corrales...

    Still, i pick Corrales by late TKO... what a damn fight that would be.

    Gatti by late KO/TKO.
    I can see Corrales outboxing Gatti early, but ultimately I think Gatti wll catch him and it will be a brawl from there and Gatti will get the best of it. Gatti had a monster left hook and that's the punch Corrales was susceptible to all throughout his career. Would've been a great fight like so many have said already.

    Chico would beat Gatti either by KO or UD. Gatti got hit way to much even in his prime. Lil Angel Manfredo beat the **** outta him so I can see the taller Diego doing a number on him.

    I'd go with Corrales but it'd be a corker of a fight.

    I think a lot of people are underestimating Gatti here a bit. He would not have given up in this fight despite heavy blows from Corrales. Gatti would have thrown some flush punches to Corrales, and you never know. Corrales would seem to win most of the rounds, but Gatti's power is still there no matter how many times you hit him.
