Gatti doesn't compare to Michael Jackson as far as being well known. Sorry, what happened to Gatti is sad but he isn't going to get anywhere near the coverage Michael Jackson has.

it's kind of inappropriate to name michael jackson for the minute's silence along with gatti and arguello imo

They do a lot of this stuff in advance the prep for the show.

They got Gatti in but I doubt there was time for a proper tribute which will I am sure come next week on HBO etc.

jackson is obviously a bigger name but his name seemed out of place in that event. don king shouldn't have pushed for it.

Why not since he was apart of his life?

cos it's a boxing event not in any way related to jackson, nor king's personal life

It's fairly powder puff stuff when you think that men of boxing can even relate to this odd character..
