ARTURO GATTI, hall of famer?

[everlast99]

he'll be in there for sure theres a lot of fighters that aren't really hof material but are in the hall

[Hous]

In all honesty if you ask a normal guy that doesnt watch boxing they will only be able to give you the names of three current boxers. Those boxers are, Oscar De La Hoya, Mike Tyson, and Arturo Gatti. I do realize Mike Tyson is now retired but ask people and many will give you Tyson because they dont keep up to date.

If you put Gatti in the Hall of Fame, you better go back and put every other "warrior" who won a title belt in there. Give me a ****ing break. Gatti is great for boxing, but to put him in the Hall of Fame would completely ruin its credibility.

[DiegoFuego]

gatti will be inducted for the simple reason that he is one of the most exciting fighters in the past 20 years. along with his heart, his fights, and his soon to be 3 division titles, yes he most certainly belongs in the HOF.

so basically you guys think Gatti deserves to be in because he's exciting? LOL

ya man, i dont know about you, but when i want to watch boxing i want to watch an exciting fight, not a boring one, boxing would suck if it was boring to watch...and gatti is the most exciting

[Bonafide]

In a lot of Arturo Gatti's interviews, they have asked him if the thinks he deserves to go into the hall of fame. he says he does because of all the outstanding action fights hes put on, how he was able to change his style, and because he has fought some of the best ever (DLH, PBF) even in losing efforts.

I think he should get into the hall of fame personally, not because of the competition he faced, but because he is what boxing is all about. Hes has great heart and that is something boxing lacks today. He is still the face of boxing IMO, not PBF, and i think he should always be remembered. What better way to be remembered then put into the hall?

his last 2 or 3 fights should decide whether or not he should be in the HOF.

[Dirt E Gomez]

If he beats Baldomir then I flip a coin, heads I think he should be in, tails he shouldn't be.

[DUPLICITY]

Some of you guys are using ridiculous criteria.

Let's put Emmanuel Augustus in IBHOF. He is entertaining. Sounds silly, right? Well, it SHOULD.

**** Arturo Gatti. He has never beaten a single a-level fighter. Not ONE. And he was horribly humiliated when he fought the elites. Gatti is hot steaming garbage.

what does that have to do with being a great fighter?

hey, Vargas should be in too because even though he lost the 4 biggest fights of his career, damn were they exciting!!! Vargas is in for sure!!!!
