    Hid downfall were his partying ways back in 98 in AC.He was high on bitches,booze and **** and didn't train properly.That's why he lost those fights in 98.Altough he was beating Manfredy till he got stopped on cuts.Hell he evn beat up a cop while being drunk one night:lol:

    Believe me he's well respected on here.

    Like you said he would go through hell to get people on his side, and always entertain & always give it his all.

    Who is making fun of Gatti?

    His heart is a big as any of the great's from any pro fighting sport.

    No fighter has a heart bigger than Gatti's.

    Won world titles in two divisions, was a Top5 contender in those divisions and fought great fighters. He deserves a lot of respect.

    There are several good highlight clips of The Human Highlight Reel on you tube. I picked this one because no band and no song is more appropriate than ACDC doing THUNDERSTRUCK

    You can either be rockstar or a fighter you cant be both:lol:

    I think Manfredy would of been stopped, if that fight had gone a couple more rounds.

    The guy in my avatar is number 2 on my list of all time personal favorites.

    My current favorite is Kelly Pavlik.

    Ya don't even have to ask how much respect I have for Aturo Gatti!

    I'm a big fan of Gatti, and I haven't seen anyone on ESB disrespect him. Gatti was a good fighter, he won world titles, and was involved in numerous great fights. As a boxing fan, what more can you want?

    If he gets any disrespect, it probably stems from the Gamache fight.

    He gets none from me though.

    Arguello is my all time favorite. Danny "Little Red" Lopez is number 2. After that Ali, Hearns, Haglar, and then several are interchangable.

    Pavlik is my CURRENT favorite.

    The point of my post was simply that if I like Little Red and KP, ya know I gotta love Gatti!

    Don't worry man, I misunderstood and then realised you ment Pavlik is your favourite current active fighter not all-time favourite.

    I was too embarrassed to leave my post up there and couldn't think of anything to write instead so I just edited it and pretended it was a double post. :lol:
