    Hatton, Gatti was far far far to small to ever fight competatively at 147.

    true true , but Hatton wasnt much use as a 147 pounder either

    Gatti can slug but he can be smooth too , I've giving Arturo the edge.

    Would've been great though

    At 147 Hatton would be too much. 140 would be more competitive. Still go for Hatton though

    Gotta go with Thunder. Hatton has been exposed in his last few fights.

    Both by #1 P4P.:yep Hatton has a big frame, he balloons to almost 200lbs in between fights...Gatti will play right into Hattons game cause they bought want slugging it out with their opponents. Hatton likes it much closer though which i think Gatti will find hard to get away from. Hatton cuts the ring pretty well. He also have the speed advantage here.

    Hatton v Gatti at 147 would be more competitive than a Hatton at his best weight of 140 Imo. Anyway styles make fights, so whatever weight there probs would have been some fireworks.

    Hatton, by destruction.

    Sorry and all, but Gatti really wasn't all that.

    Hatton would probably stop Gatti at either weight in a great fight.

    Gatti should have stayed at Super featherweight or lightweight. Hatton beats him at 140 in a war.
