    Hall of Fame. Last time I checked, Gatti has been one of the most famous fighters of this generation. He should be allowed in the HOF.

    he put asses in the seat, fought his heart out and never took the easy route (cept for gamache :-( ) sounds like a shoe-in for the HoF

    He's a HOF'r. Not because he was the greatest fighter, he wasn't, but because of what he did for the sport.

    I swear that some of you douchebags like Amsterdam don't actually even enjoy boxing with all the **** you guys talk about fighters.

    McGuigan didn't have the longevity like Gatti, but he was better during his prime. He dethroned an ATG in Pedroza, and had good wins over contenders like LaPorte and Taylor.

    If the only reason Gatti was so big is cause he's white then why are there thousands of white fighters who arent as big?

    You're a douche.

    There's a ton of reasons Gatti was as popular as he was and the number 1 reason is that he is a ****ing warrior

    If Gatti was not Italian, the effect wouldn't have been the same. Why was Morales and Corrales not as celebrated, they were equal warriors at their best and also elite fighters, why is Gatti bigger?

    Gatti was never even an elite fighter and a punch bag in his later career.
