        The Ward vs Gatti fights are as good an advert for boxing as you'll ever see.

        Just watched round 9 again of their first fight on YouTube. Makes the Rocky fights look like a tickling competition.

          Monster fight and round 9 was absolutely brutal. Gatti mini comeback with a few low blows and ward just shrugs it off with his balls of steel.. Compelling viewing and probably my fav round of boxing ever. How they mustered the energy to even walk to the corners after the bell I don't know.
