Arturo Gatti

Give him this as people try to compare him and RIcardo Mayorga. What did Mayorga do after losses to Trinidad and Oscar? He pouted and stormed off with hsi tail between his legs refusing to give an interview. What did Gatti do after the pummelling against Mayweather? He stayed in the ring and was accountable for his loss talking to HBO even though he was embarrassed. Its a matter of class that separates the two It's so funny that we have a guy with the username Mayweather and a guy called Gatti Fan arguing. :D

yea i think he's hall of fame material. You cant be in like one million fight of the years and not be good enough for the Hall. A lot of people in other professional sports are inducted into the hall of fame because they were a blast to watch and changed the sport. I think Gatti did both so he definetly deserves to be in it already in my eyes. Or at least put him in the "best hearts of the sport" section. lol. they should have that actually... thatd be cool.

yea sry. i uhh.. got an anger problem. ill keep it cool. dont worry kid. I was messing with you boy but ya you fly off the handle like any good boxing fan does its the nature of our sport. I gave the poster of this thread shit because he was giving gatti shit when the man deseves respect win or lose because gatti's main purpose is to please the fans and in conjunction make money. Is he an A level fighter is he an Elite no way but is he good enought to get in the hall of fame not realt but he is not done fighting and if he wins another belt I say he is in because he has done alot and not just in winning but he is better than many men who are in the HOF so let the debate rage

your pissing me and a lot of people off stop attacking people for their opinons unless your posing as zab judah or think your him in other words don't be a punk. answer the questions and give your opinions with out giveing people flack for their opions or people will not give a fuck about anything you say. I am a big gatti fan and even I wonder how good he really is as far as on paper and HOF consideration. I know what the guy your responding to said but because of what he siad people will no care what he said. You have a habit of attacking people on this site let it go provide good arguments like evil did. I am not your dad and shit, but just keep it cool and possitive you can make the guy look like and idoit if you would back up gatti and showed what he has done in his career. Ja get me yea sry. i uhh.. got an anger problem. ill keep it cool. dont worry kid.

Its not like people say Gatti is a great fighter. Not even diehard Gatti fans say he is. He is what he is, a good fighter with a great heart, and a will like Ive never seen. He gives you an exciting fight everytime out, with the exception of the Mayweather fight. Let the guy be, he doesnt go parading around like hes the best. Ive yet to see an expert that has dissed Gatti in anyway. They all have a lot of respect for him.

his only claim to fame is the ward trilogy which is kinda pathetic seeming as how ward has no claim to fame either except gatti. what has the clown ever done U aint no boxing fan.

STFU. u have no idea what ur talking about. Maybe he wasnt a great fighter, but he was certainly good. He was a great fighter because of his heart. Without his heart he would have been just good. But i consider an all around solid fighter, and i no a ton of people that agree with me. love that guy... damn. your pissing me and a lot of people off stop attacking people for their opinons unless your posing as zab judah or think your him in other words don't be a punk. answer the questions and give your opinions with out giveing people flack for their opions or people will not give a fuck about anything you say.

Ja get me. na I'm just kidding is fun hearing peoples shit. sometime what people say to each other gets me rollen. I just felt like picken on ya cause you have been shooting flack all day. just have some good insites and its cool. Gatti was a solid champ when he help belts but not at 140. He is a tough toufh hambre who prings it and he knows that his style can get him beat but he does not care because his style makes him a lot of money and people love him in the states.

Hes not close to being on the level of those fighters popularity wise... on a national seen he is world wide he is not even close. Gatti is not famous people know who he is and what he does. Ali transended the sport himself and he is that last great american icon. many people at the deepest darkest places of the word new who ali was. Gatti would be a blip on ali's radar but a very exciting and real blip.

Chill playa....Gatti actually sucks...yea his resume is shitty and he is only the champ because of the stupid route that Pretty Boy took to fight Zab....sorry STFU. u have no idea what ur talking about. Maybe he wasnt a great fighter, but he was certainly good. He was a great fighter because of his heart. Without his heart he would have been just good. But i consider an all around solid fighter, and i no a ton of people that agree with me. love that guy... damn.

Doesnt have much skill to him, but he puts on a show and is good for boxing. Not a very talented fighter overall though. Just entertainment. He's there for Atlantic City and HBO to make money off casual fans who like wars and brawlers. He just makes them money, isnt a great fighter though from a tatical stand point. Just their for casual fans? im a hardcore fan and i love the man. Just because he puts on a war doesnt mean he JUST appeals to casual fans. Hes their for entertainment because he has the best heart i have ever seen. He doesnt go down for shit. A true warrior and one of the many memorable fighters of this generation.

some times you suprise me evil and the thread starter needs to take floyds dick out of his ear. FLoyd is irrelevant, were talking about Gatti.

perfectly said alot of non hardcore boxing fans either know boxing by Ali,Tyson,DLH or Gatti Hes not close to being on the level of those fighters popularity wise...

one titles in two (soon to be 3) divisions. was in the fight of the year 4 times. won the KO of the year against ruelas. is one of the biggest box office attractions in boxing. doesnt dodge anybody. gave three of the greatest fights in history. has more heart than anybody in the sport. has faced two of the greatest boxers in our era (floyd and oscar). his resume is none too impressive and he has 7 losses. but gatti is good for boxing. hes a fearless warrior who gives the fans a good show while showing the heart and sportsmanship of a champion. THAT'S what hes done, bitch. some times you suprise me evil and the thread starter needs to take floyds dick out of his ear.

Gatti's nickname should be Lionheart. He has the most heart in all of boxing, is always entertaining, and lays it all on the line. A true modern day warrior. He is an inspiration in what boxing should be. No he isn't the best, but he doesn't suck either. There are many worse than him. I am a fan for life.

Typical shit i see coming out off ppl like normal on this fourm! where having a fourm about WHAT has gatti done 4 boxing? lol 2me it sounds very strange 2 say tht, Gatti is considered by many boxing experts (including former world Heavyweight champion George Foreman) and fans alike to be one of the most exciting boxers living today. He brings excitment to the ring and he is the reason why many kids 2day have decided to take up boxing as a sport, He participated in Ring Magazine's fight of the year three years in a row, from 1996 to 1998. He is one off the most popular boxers in the sport today. A Former World champion and i believe he will beat Baldomair and be a champion at welterweight, Gatti-Ward It has already been called the fight of the century by many experts, including HBO commentators. Emanuel Steward called round nine of that fight, the round of the century. Gatti has a record of 40 wins and 7 losses, with 31 wins by knockout. and if Gatti was on one channel side facing a decent boxer in a non title fight and another so-called better boxer was on the other channel fighting another so-called champion for a title i would watch Gatti fight everytime, Gattis a warrior he has the heart off a lion and if some boxers these days had half the heart gatti had we would have a wonderful boxing sport with great fights. perfectly said alot of non hardcore boxing fans either know boxing by Ali,Tyson,DLH or Gatti
