    this was a fight much talked about after naz beat kevin kelly the fight was close to being made however gatti came unstruck when he was beaten severly by angel manfredo, if the fight happened at catchweight who would win? Would Naz's bombs hurt gatti? would gatti be too big for naz?
    who wins and how?

    I'd usually say 20-25 pounds would make a perceived mismatch at least a little more interesting, but size didn't seem to bother Naz.

    There are plenty of stories of him handing Johnny Nelson his ass in sparring, and he was a solid sized CW.
