Anyone going to be watching in a few minutes there is 2 fights.

Carlos Baldomir vs Arturo Gatti for the WBC welterweight title

Malik Scott vs James Walton Heavyweight fight.
 
These two heavyweights are pretty lame at the moment, let's hope the main event is more exciting, which is pretty much guaranteed with Gatti fighting.
 
I think Gatti should give up now, being stopped by a non puncher like Baldomir is a pretty big signal that your time is up.
 
It's a great shame to see a warrior come to the end of his career. I bet Hatton is reeling as it would have been an explosive, bloody war and a massive payday having fought Gatti, despite doing little for his credentials.

If Hatton takes on Baldomir, I think we'll see another fight like his last as Baldomir is a big guy and very durable but if Hatton wants Mayweather, he needs more chips such as Baldomirs WBC belt.

You've entertained me plenty Gatti, enjoy your wealth and health.
 
This sets up Baldomir v Mayweather I think... Mayweathers options are very limited on who he can fight right now and so I imagine he will go after Baldomir if the rumoured fight with Mayweather v Spinks doesn't happen.

Easy pickings for Mayweather if he fancies it, even Gatti made Baldomir look very amateurish and slow in a couple of the rounds

Gatti's time is up... but Baldi is a non puncher with people his size... he walks around huge compared to gatti... gatti was too small.
 
agreed - baldomir is not a big puncher - i think gatti just ran out of ideas/steam and that's what ended the fight.

Shame of hatton (did you see how gutted billy graham was) - Hatton would have beaten gatti easy and got a massive payday and massive respect in the USA but is now left with nothing really.

Mayweather v Baldomir is not a big draw for US audiences but if it does go ahead then Mayweather will destroy Baldomir.

P.S shocking 8 round heavy weight fight - really poor stuff!
