This fight would have been one of the best fights of all time if they would hve fought in their same era.

Two WARRIORS that are going to give our money's worth. Who would hve won this fight???
No matter the outcome, I know it would have been a CLASSIC!!!

If anyone could just get these two to take a chance and mix it up, it might be a pretty decent fight! Yeah right...a bloodbath brawl regardless of the winner, but I'd probably lean toward Chacon, but Gatti may have just been too big.

I'd go for Chacon although he was past his best by the time he won the Junior Lightweight title his will to win and heart were so strong that I think he'd have too much for Gatti. Chacon still had a very good punch and I think he'd use his experience and soak up Gattis early assults before coming back in the later rounds and winning on points.

We're talking about Gatti when he was at 130!... 8)

.....and Gatti's a Light-welter not a welter!. 8)
