Arturo "Thunder" Gatti 1972 - 2009

RIP ARTURO! WE GONNA MISS YOU! That make me so sad. I remember when i meet him the first time. Cool dude, very nice. Montreal will miss you.

 

I heard on radio that upcoming story was on boxing great found dead in anothe rcountry under suspicious circumstances. I', going through old timers in my head, I'm thinking old time boxers, was shocked then they said Gatti.

 

I'm shocked Rest in Peace Warrior you have my ultimate respect forever.

 

People say the **** so much that it has become a cliche to say, "but the good die young" I'm not talking about behavioral l wise cause we all **** up...but damn. Rest in Peace champ

 

really stupid comment there.

 

i died a little inside...

 

I was never a huge fan of Arturo Gatti and never ranked him above a B+ level as a boxer. I enjoyed his trilogy with Ward, especially the first fight.

However, I was a fan and am shocked and saddened to hear of his death and the apparent circumstances.

Coming on the heels of Arguello's death, it seems this is a sad time for boxing.

Despite never having the skills to be a superstar, the man had a warrior's heart and mentality and had just finished his very exciting career. He should be just settling in to enjoy his retirement.

Instead, he's gone.


RIP Arturo.

 

I couldn't agree more RIP Arturo gone way too soon.

 

His heart made up what he lacked in skills. Never was a huge fan either but im extremely shocked to see one of the most undeniably exciting fighters ever die so young. Even more shocked that its most likely a murder.

 

co-sign

 

sounds like a murder to me, hope everything gets solved..

rip arturo..

 

R.I.P Arturo. Very sad news.

 

I'm shocked, Gatti was just enjoying his retirement and he was the last boxer I expected to go. RIP a man who had the heart and warrior spirit to carry boxing.

 

Sad news....R.I.P "Thunder" Gatti the definition of a true warrior.:deal

 

Horrible news. I found about about it on the Showtime telecast and couldn't believe it and had to rewind it to hear it again. I hope this gets thoroughly investigated because it sounds too fishy. Arturo didn't deserve to go out like that. RIP Champ.
