    No grown person is forced to do anything unless they owe someone $$$$$ and is/was willing to do anything to pay off that debt.
    TBF, the matchmakers did Gatti a huge favor by putting him in with a bunch of D listers.
    Those fights put him on the map.

    I still say his wife had something to do with his demise.

      He beat the hell out of his wife in public, strangers intervened and attacked him causing a bruise on his head, then he killed himself and the cops initially blamed her because of the bruise.

      But multiple people saw him assault her, multiple people saw strangers attacking him to defend her, and two different Brazilian coroners followed later by two different Canadian forensic pathologists all said it was a suicide.

      And he had already attempted suicide in 2006 and had a very long history of threatening to kill himself.

      The reality is he was a drug addict, he was punch-drunk, he was mentally ill, and he was extremely violent towards women. That's why he's dead now.

        Hindsight remains 20/20
        Since no one called him out during his career

        I can't find any post assault pics so I can't say if he pushed her, grabbed/shook her or curb stomped.
        Grabbing a woman's arm is considered assault.

        Not condoning violence from either gender, but don't think for a second women are above pushing a man to his limits
        When trying to leave a situation is difficult
        Or when a woman tries to get flirty in public, with her man right there.

        Some women thrive for that bad boy
        A bad boy with fame and money
        Cha Ching !

        You get what you get

        That said, NO GROWN PERSON HAS TO DO ANYTHING

          The police initially ruled it a homicide because Gatti had a bruise on the back of his head, but the coroner's report indicated a suicide. Gatti had a decade-long history of talking about suicide and attempted suicide at least once in 2006. They later found witnesses who said that the bruise on Gatti's head came earlier in the night when he was assaulting the woman in public and random people intervened and hit him in the back of the head trying to stop him. Reporters from both HBO and CBC interviewed multiple different witnesses who said they saw Gatti hitting the woman and they saw people attacking Gatti in return.

          Two Brazilian coroners and two Canadian forensic pathologists examined the evidence and they all agreed that it was a suicide. Only people hired by Gatti's manager to push a narrative said otherwise.

          So no, you have no idea what you're talking about. Gatti was a headcase drug addict who beat the hell out of his wife, freaked out, then hanged himself. Stop trying to prop up his legacy.
          Nobody goes on a vacation to kill themself. Wake up bro, she did it. And we know what she did to get out of it. After all she was a very successful strlpper/prost.

            The woman is obviously a total PSYCHO. Strippers and prosts are all bananas. Every single one of them has major issues. Her husband tried to take his life and now her son has. It's all on amanda rodriguez, she is the common denominator. If you saw her old IG posts when Jr was about ten years old, you would know she's insane.

              If he indeed said that, then he earned everything that happened to him.

                I believe he was murdered. Didn't she force him to sign his will over to her 2 weeks before he died? Or threatened him that he would never be able to see his kids again. So he did that. They had a plan to go to Brazil that was probably her idea considering she's from there. She probably picked up two hitmen rather easily in that country and said they'll be paid handsomely once he's dead and she acquires the inheritance.

                They claim he suicide by hanging himself off a purse strap from the stair rails. A 3rd party forensic team used the same purse and a dummy of the same weight of Gatti and the strap snapped almost immediately from the weight. This led them to believe that idea was impossible and that he was murdered by some dudes that were let into the hotel room. There was no security cameras around to confirm or deny that anyone else entered.

                Listen, she's Brazilian, she was in Brazil and she probably got them on her side easily by saying he was an abuser. I remember when she got out of jail and the cameras were on her, she had just looked like she left winning a lottery ticket and was about to party.

                In all that, I'm not saying Arturo was a saint because he obviously wasn't, though he didn't have to die. There are plenty others out there doing far worse that should. At worse, they just needed to get a divorce and she still allows him to see his children. The problem are most women are so pissed at that point, when the divorce hits, they're trying to keep everything from the man and that drives them into thoughts in their head that they may normally not go.

                      Yes well said. Those details are not believable,purse straps off stair rails, cmon that's ridiculous. With wills being revised and public fights, drugs, money, prostitoote's self esteem issues... it's all a recipe for tragedy. Wouldn't be surprised if the son, God bless his soul, realized his mother is a crazy witch who committed murder, and it was just too much to suffer.
