Arturo Gatti...

[dj Ramos]

Honestly its gettin disrespectful now he was a good fighter but ppl need to stop comparing him to high top fighters like duran the man had balls to fight and not give up but this is gettin ****** now pac vs gatti comon now

[D-MiZe]

...Is not that gifted as a boxer.

i didnt say that....you said he wasnt gifted..

The keyword being that, meaning that he's not that gifted to be able to defeat boxers like Duran or Pacquaio.

[Pretty Boy32]

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

I never said that ya idiot,
no way would he have a chance against manny, duran, de la hoya etc etc...
There are a hell of alot of idiots on this forum who only know the likes of manny and pbf,
your gonna get this threads either way.
You said the guy had no skills,
he was a world champion ffs.
You have no respect for the guy

Exactly.

But people think because he had great heart and courage then can throw him in the wrong with anyone. Then when questioned why someone would even consider that much, they reply ' because it's respectful '.

I agree.. much respect to Gatti and he was a warrior but the threads about Gatti v Duran and Pacman are nonsense. I don't see how you are "respecting Gatti" by making those threads. You're not doing much at all.
Because someone dies doesn't mean they all the sudden stand a chance against an opponent they wouldn't have before they died either.

anyway, stop with the negative bull****. the guy gave us some great memories and let him rest in peace.

You have no respect for the guy

So I should go make threads about him fighting Duran and Pacquaio to show respect?

WTF?



Btw Pretty Boy, the only reason you're in here is because of all the **** that is going on in the IRA thread.

Whoa, Demise i kinda miss the dude. Been thinking about possible match ups, just wanted opinions, you've said yours and i thank you for that, i never suggested Gatti would destroy Pac, just putting these thoughts in peoples minds/memories.

[Sin City]

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!

I don't think you understand what he is saying.. he isn't talking about whether Gatti was fearless or not or whether he was a warrior. He is talking about making obvious threads in which you know the outcome. Such as Jennings v Mayweather as he put it.

No you dont have to make any threads to respect him,
i respect him but i dont have to make a thread to do that.
You said he has no skills,
clear sign of disrepect.



Btw Demise, im not in here just because of the **** that is going on in the "Great" Britan thread

It's not just your thread, it's the accumulation of people comparing Gatti to other fighters like Duran and others.

I respect the guy and I really enjoyed his fights with Ward. But I think some people take it too far by suggesting certain matchups like Duran. In fact the Duran thing was worse because someone actually thought he stood a chance.
