I believe ESPN had a phone interview with him a few weeks ago during FNF. Like others, he was deeply sadden by the loss. He mentioned that after their battles he had the utmost respect for him.

I would imagine hard,he did train gatti in his last fight,i know freitas was devistated him and arturo were close.

He's sad normally.

He was at the funeral in Canda and at all the masses in New Jersey along with the rest of the guys.

Cracked a few smiles but you could see the ywere forced.Micky is the thype of guy that doesn't exteriorize himself that much.He's the tough blue collar guy that just does his thing.

Yeh i read an interview from ward and he was obviously very upset over the loss....
Just a day or two after....

[MANGLER]

He's gotta be stung by it. He became part of Gatti's team and was trainin him at the end. They were close friends too.

[baracuda]
