Which career would you rather have

Aturo Gatti will be remembered forever.:thumbsup

 

Gatti any day the man is a legend and probably bound for the hall of fame not on skills but on popularity.

 

Anyone who took the beating he took in Ward 1 + 3, Rodriguez, Ruelas, Robinson 1 +2, etc. etc. deserves to be in the hall of fame.

Some more gifted fighters could have gone on to be ATG's if they had half the heart that man had.

 

Arguably the biggest upset.

I personally don't see Douglas outlasting Gatti.

People have already started attributing that victory as more of Tyson losing it than Douglas winning it.

 

But one day...he might not be able to remember that....

 

one the one hand while Tyson wasn't on top orm, I don't think any credit should be reoved from Buster. After all, it's not like he squeaked by, he really beat the **** out of Tyson, worse than anybody else ever did, and poorly prepared or no, it was the best version of Tyson anybody ever beat.

 

I'm not saying it's correct to discredit Buster, but it has already started happening.

 

In any event, that was one occasion.

Gatti was entertaining fans, and selling out arenas for his entire career.

And to answer the actual thread question, Aturo Gatti. He shined every time he took an hellacious beating but won anyway.

 

Your right, but damn did he fight like hell. He could have given up when he got knocked down, but I bet he thought of his mother and got up to give Tyson the beating he deserved for marrying a golddigger. My answer would be to have Buster's career due to the enormous payday he got for the Holyfield fight. Gatti don't have that kind of loot wit all of his fights.

 

Gatti without hesitation.

 

gotta be gatti even tho he fell short of some fights its the way he fought that will be remembered and thats why people came to see him cuz they know he wasnt a guy to not give you your moneys worth
