Can someone hook me up with a dvd of the Gatti-Ward trilogy on one disc? I'd like to find one out there that has a decent menu on it and all three fights with great quality on it.
Would be much appreciated. I'm gutted right now. I just heard this for the first time earlier when I checked my facebook and Sweet Chuck had RIP Arturo Gatti on it. Then Hype's as well. This fucking sucks. I've had two athletes that I admired get killed (allegedly with Gatti) over the past week or so. First Steve McNair and now this. Not a good day. |

I remember your pro debut and many other great fights on TV I seen of you. I seen you live at your rematch with Robinson, your war with Rueles, your rematch with Ward, and your fight with Millet. For pure guts and excitement, you were the hands down the best. I have talked countless hours about you and your fights with many people over many years. Thanks for all the great moments in the ring you gave millions of people. I hope you are in a better place now.
RIP Arturo "Thunder" Gatti. |

Thanks a lot! Info sent.
I had it on two discs (including the Legendary Nights or whatever it was type of retrospective) awhile back that I won through the "fanfight" thing on pound4pound.com Retired undefeated! lol. Whenever you won a "fanfight" you'd get a free boxing disc from boxingvideos.net I lost all those discs last year though in a water leak at my old apartment. lol...found my fanfight page... http://www.pound4pound.com/Year/2006/FanFi...onerKsc2303.htm |

I think all of these deaths are showing that even our heroes are human and vunerable. It also show "One life to Live". Make the most of it! |
