I loved MJ's music too but...

Lennox would knock you out if you called him Canadian. Gatti called himself Canadian when he was in Canada. But once he was in the limelight, he was Arturo Gatti. Italian name, Italian parents, fighting history of Italians. Canada is not a real country anyway. ;)lmao. fu-ck you. Green K

I seriously doubt Gatti would be going around tellin' people he's Canadian. He would proudly say he's Italian. Just as Lennox Lewis has always said he is British.You're actually wrong about that. He has referred to himself as Canadian for as along as I can remember. He then started to refer to New Jersey as his home away from home. Same goes for Lennox. Lennox was a Canadian through and through until he realized that his career was going to be resounding flop had he stayed here. Hence him moving back to Britain.

Sheeit. I was born in New York but I have been living Canada my whole life...does that make me American?

Lewis was born in West Ham, London, England in 1965 to Jamaican-born parents. Unless there's a place in Canada called London, England....then I'm going to say NO.I know where he was born. Just as I know where Gatti was born. That does not preclude them from being Canadian. Let me guess -- People born in India or Pakistan who have been living in London for forty years aren't really English, right?

No. That's like saying Lennox Lewis was Canadian.Lennox Lewis was Canadian. lol

No, Gatti was born in Italy.**** off, please.

When I discovered Gatti had been murdered, I toasted his memory & drowned my sorrows with a bottle of Rum.. While drinking.... It suddenly dawned on me that both the Rum & whatsisname come in tots..horrible. i shouldn't be laughing at that shit. i'm going to hell. :grumble:

For the record, this thread is about Gatti, not Michael whatsisname. When I discovered Gatti had been murdered, I toasted his memory & drowned my sorrows with a bottle of Rum.. While drinking.... It suddenly dawned on me that both the Rum & whatsisname come in tots..

Gatti was canadian??!!lol. From Montreal.

I am really getting a little pissed off at the Canadian news and how they're trying to portray Arturo Gatti despite the fact that he was just murdered by some ****ing dimwit, gold-digger. Talking about his assault charges and how he spent a couple of nights in jail for breaching probation or whatever bullshit it was. Arturo is a Canadian boxing legend and should be treated as such. Why the hell are they lionizing MJ and treating Gatti like he's the diddler? Sorry. Rant over. Gatti was canadian??!!

For the record, this thread is about Gatti, not Michael whatsisname.

It's not the wrong forum. What sport did Arturo Gatti participate in again?
