    Gatti-Ward trilogy

    It was good, but doesn't it make Micky Ward look like a bit of a pleb that he couldn't finish a one-handed Gatti?

    Good stuff, though I think Gatti won all three...

    I think the first Gatti/Ward was either way but i get the point. Ward wasn`t good at all and had Gatti boxed in the series then Ward would most likely been stopped!

      Yeah, it was close, but Gatti practically whitewashed the first half... the second was the worst for me, far too one-sided.

      Micky Ward probably went home after the third and said "Ah, Jayzus, I was in a good fight, so I was. Took him to de edge, so I did. Oh bugger it, he only had one hand."

        The Gatti-Ward trilogy is thirty of the greastest rounds in boxing history, and to call them just good, is idiotic.

        By the time of the third bout, when Gatti broke his hand, Ward was severly passed his physical prime. In short he was an old man, he gave it his all, but he had nothing left.

        Anarok your the ****ing pleb. I'll bet you've never gotten into a ring in your life.

          hahaha good one man

          who cares about skills and who won? All I think about is the fight they put up and I get them both mad props...

          Ward has 11 losses on his record, but when I think of him, it dont seem that way, I respect Ward wayyy more than Mayweather

          and if I can meet one of them it would be Ward...

              It was a waste of time IMO. Gatti could've fought Floyd then instead of wasting time with Ward.

                Jesus, have you even seen the fights? I doubt it.

                The Gatti-Ward trilogy isn't about titles, or anything like that it is about man against man and honor and pride and guts.

                Some of you who can't see that, are just dumb.

                  the only thing you can take away from this trilogy was that there were no titles on the line.

                  otherwise, they were some of the best fights you will ever see.

                  if there were more boxers in the world like Micky and Arturo, we would have many more fans.

                    I think the fact that there were no titles on the line, made them all the more unbelivable.
