    What's your personal top 10 Gatti list?

    As Lampley put it:
    Arturo Gatti wasn't really one of a kind. Just the most illustrious modern example of what it means to be a people's fighter. His will towards risk always exceeded is urge for safety. Not every fighter should or will fight that way, but those who do are special. Boxer's who entertainment value in this moment in the sport should make them special to fans.
    1)Marcos Maidana
    2)Carl Froch
    3)Manny Pacquiao
    4)James Kirkland
    5)Mike Alvarado
    6)Josesito Lopez
    7)Abner Mares
    8)Vic Darchinian
    9)Amir Khan
    10)Matthyse (i wish I could put him higher, but he hasn't been in something I'd call a real war yet)

    Pretty much agree with your list. I would also probably add Pac and Marquez on there somewhere.

        between what Lampley said and your list...you pretty much ended your thread. Gatti I enjoyed watching all Gattis fights....until his downfall outside the ring which led to his ending in boxing!

                Definitely Victor Ortiz, and I don't even like him.

                    Micky Ward was more exciting than Gatti
