What if Arturo Gatti had fought one of the big 3 at 140 ?

[THE THIRD MAN]

surprisingly enough I think the best match-up for him would have been Tszyu, mainly cause Kostya didn't have much speed and was a bit flat in movement, not saying that the man couldn't box but he wasn't necessarily a light footed fighter who had flashy combos, Gatti would have a hand speed advantage and at 140 had underrated foot movement and boxing ability, Kostya probably would have won down the stretch in a war, but Gatti had a very good chin and IMO would have stuck with Tsyzu to the end of the 12th losing a close decision

Judah probably would have done a Mayweather or possibly hurt him worse cause he's a southpaw, and IMO Gatti had enough to probably beat Mitchell

I agree on Tszyus speed, he was more about perfect timing and execution after wearing people down.

Tszyu had that ability to cut off the ring with faster opponents, all of whom failed. For Gatti to win against Tszyu he would have to stand in front of him and just go for it, boxers never stood a chance against Tszyu, but Gatti could mix it up and he was no slouch in the fighting department. It wouldv'e been a great fight in 2003 or 04. Tszyu's lost years. Tszyu catches him eventually by mid rounds pretty much like Floyd and Oscar did.
