    a great trilogy definitly but slightly overratd IMO. The skill level is at points very poor and i think a great fight needs a high skill level.

    Also the 2nd fight isnt that great

    The "scenes after the fight" (last vid) is a nice post. If anyone skipped over that, go back up and check it out. Those are good features for fans to help keep a perspective on the costs involved for these guys.

    I had the pleasure of introducing both of them.

    Gatti was selected the New Jersey Boxing Hall of Fame Boxer of the year several times and I was also honored with him several years ago in Newark at the COMBATT Awards Dinner.

    Ward, came to the New Jersey Boxing Hall of Fame induction ceremonies a couple of years ago as well.

    Fighters like these guys provided way more excitement, than guys like Mayweather, so it was nice to see them get compensated properly regardless of how good they really were.
