    Shocking. The guy was one of my favorites. What a warrior. Another boxing legend dead. Crazy. My prayers go out to his family and friends. Tells ya, man, life is too short. These guys lived hard and lived fast. RIP "Thunder" Gatti.

    Rest In Peace, Arturo Gatti.

    Great warrior, dude had balls of steel that you'd never see from any modern fighter. He will be missed.

    Definitely some foul play going on. Has mark on his neck and injury to the back of his head. Some b.s. going on.

    A class act through and through. and toughness to impress even non-sports fans, much less boxing fans. he will be missed.

    Gatti was one of the few fighters that kept me interested in the sport while i was in middle school and high school. Its such tragic news. I grew up watching him fight. RIP
