    ARTURO GATTI, hall of famer?

    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?

        One of the most marketable fighters today.

        Three times been in fight of the year, and what some people claim to be fight of the century.

        One of the all-time warriors of the sport.

        My vote - Yes.

                    I say yes just because when he fights you know you are going to get 100% out of him. Though I was dissapointed when he quit on the stool against PBF.
