RIP to a true legend, one of the greatest No guts No glory fighters to ever step inside the ring.

Rest in peace Arturo Gatti.

as far as skills that are not HOF but as far as what they did for boxing community I think they deserve a spot.


People will alway remeber Gatti-Ward wars or his other fights where he was about to lose but comes back with a KO

Amen to that. They may not have had the skills of the elite level fighters but theyve given us more great fights and memories than most of the top level fighters of the current generation put together. Man this sucks. So so sad. A true warrior. R.I.P. champ : (

HoF is for fighters that had FAME and alot of followers.

Gatti for sure is a HoF

But not a ATG

It's called working the phones and actually reporting, not cutting and pasting what might be a false story from an overseas source. I remember a few months ago another major boxing website reported a fighter's death and had to retract the story after the boxer contacted them to prove that he was alive. We on the other hand actually make calls to confirm the information before making such an error to put something out there when friends and family of the fighter could and will be reading.

So he is really dead yeah? Or is it just reports?

They found his body and it has been reported on major networks.

It's pretty much confirmed now, sadly.

I'm in total shock. I think my heart skipped a beat the second I read Gatti Found Dead. Total saddness. I still love watching his classic bouts and now it's going to be hard. RIP warrior...
