    Can anyone fill Gatti's shoes?

    I wonder who the next real blood and guts warrior is going to be?
    The guy has to have a big following like gatti did and sell out an arena. Who do you guys think is going to get the mantle. Corrales is retiring soon or so he says and castillo is getting older.

        Hatton appears to be that kind of fighter should he keep fighting until he is Gattis age..........

          A lot of people are hissing and booing the notion of Duddy as a pro fighter.

          I've said all along he's not going to be a top flight pro, but another Gatti type fighter.

          I think he's the same breed of fighter.

              Duddy crossed my mind as well but gatti had more skill than duddy.

                Margarito, Rivera, Vazquez, Cotto, Chico, there's a few other candidates that display a lotta heart, but there's only 1 Gatti.

                  1) there will never be another arturo gatti, thats for damn sure

                  2) i think duddy can come close. Hes got the power to bail himself out if hes far behind, and hes got the heart to last long enough to do so. Duddy is gonna be in some of the best fights ur gonna see in the next 5 years, hes already been in one of the best this year...

                    Calzaghe has a big heart and comes to fight, but he's an old man and at the end of the road now..
