    Arturo Gatti...

    ...Is not that gifted as a boxer.

    What's up with all these threads about Gatti vs Duran and Gatti vs Pac? His trilogy with Ward was amazing, but that doesn't make him a great fighter.

      No, it's not called respect.

      It's called ******ity.

      Floyd vs Jennings

      Who wins?

          Its called ******ity that people Respect a man who was completely fearless?
          E.g. Everyone around him including Buddy McGirt told him not to fight PBF,
          he didnt give a **** he was pure blood and guts and he deserves every ounce of credit he gets on this forum!

            Gifted enough to even have a chance against Duran and Pac?

              So because he went against McGirt's wishes and fought PBF, he has a chance of beating Pac?

                  i understand your point as well.. i love gatti... gatti ward is my favorite fight of all time.. ive watched it at least a 100 times...

                  but he wasnt the best fighter out there... fighting duran or pac or any of these great fighters is just too much for someone like gatti

                    no,

                    but if pac went into a war with gatti,
                    he'd hav a chance.

                    gatti is the most exciting fighter in history imo,
                    and he could take punches all day.
