Mickey Ward has possibly the best left hook to the body I've ever seen in the sport, but not a lot else of note. If he lands that liver shot you're done though, I don't care who you are.
Gatti lost to Manfredy, who Mayweather chopped to pieces easily. He got the championship by beating some italian guy nobody ever heard of and was allowed to skip tough fights (against Kostya and the other legitimate champions). He's an exciting fighter but nowhere near PBF skill-wise. His main chance is that he's so much bigger than PBF who it seems will end up moving to heavyweight before he finds someone who can beat him. He's fighting way out of his weight class in an apparent attempt to challenge himself.
If lightning strikes and Gatti somehow lands a couple big left hooks flush he has a chance, but I don't see it as a very big one. PBF is a 5-1 favorite and if I were going to bet the milk money I would bet on him. I don't see Arturo winning this fight but in boxing you never know. I thought Mike Tyson's corpse could whip that Irish guy and look what happened there.
