Damn.......

That is sad.

Yup. So young still.

I was reading espn when I saw the headline "Ex-champ Gatti found dead in Brazilian hotel". I thought at first it might be someone else, but nope.

Yeah that sucks...

Alexis Arguello killed himself last week as well. You young pups probably wouldn't remember him, but he was a hell of a boxer in his day too with a record of 82-8 with 65 knockouts.

whole bunch of shady going on down there.

Damn, he was one of the most entertaining boxers I ever watched. Ill never forget the epic fights between him and Micky Ward.

And a third boxer in recent weeks... Vernon Forrest was shot last saturday and killed as well. He was still pretty damn good too with a 41-3 record.

I'm genuinely pissed off about alot of the things i've been hearing regarding
gatti's death. With all the early reports talking about the character of his girlfriend and nature of his death has led everyone to believe that his girlfriend did it. Now they pull out this suicide crap, and now i don't know what to believe. They need to continue this investigation and find out the truth to bring justice if it is needed. I've been in a bad mood lately with all of these boxers dying within the last two months. I don't like to speculate but I want to believe that conniving bitch he called a girlfriend did it. RIP Gatti, not the best of boxers out there, but a true warrior.
