im currently having a dispute with my mate on which of these was the greatest fight and while i agree both fights were awesome i think ward vs gatti 1 just edges it ,thoughts please ?
I think both were great fights but the choice is easy. Castillo Corrales for me. Superior skill with an equal level of brutality and one of the most dramatic endings I have ever seen.
This is clearly the thread starter again. The account is made today and backs up your initial claim? Get the **** out of here if you're going to be an idiot.
I agree 100% Ward v Gatti was entertaining for sure, but so is any bar-room brawl with a couple talentless bums. Corrales v. Castillo had it all. the drama, the in-fighting, the names, talent, and just the fact that Corrales fougth Castillos fight was just unreal. An instant classic.
no i started the thread but didnt post straight after if u check u will se i made a post about mayweather and cotto months ago so i didn't make this account today
Ill go the other way Gatti v Ward Im a big Ward fan so had more of an emotional attachment to the fight , Plus neither of them cheated by spitting out there sheild
As good as the Chico/Castillo fight was - the Gatti/Ward fight was 12 rounds of brutal back and forth ass whoopins. Chico/Castillo was as good as it was - due to Chico coming back and winning the fight by stoppage. But 12 rounds of Gatti/Ward 1 - was serious.
Gatti and Ward was a great fight, but Corrales and Castillo were two talented fighters who slugged with precision and skill far beyond what Ward and Gatti did. Most boxing expertts from Bert Sugar to Emanuel Stewart claimed it may have been the greatest fight of all time and that's enough for me.
Castillo vs Corrales. If you pitted both these fighters against either Ward or Gatti, you wouldn't get a brutal fight. You would get Corrales or Castillo brutally stopping the limited but game Ward and Gatti.
