Boxing has been a part of my life since day one. I'll never forget coming home from hockey practice, grabbing a beer and sitting down(no time to shower) to watch a 10rd non- title fight.
By the 3rd rd. I was so loud and excited I woke my wife at @11:15 est. I told her you need to sit with me and watch this.
The heart, guts and respect these fighters displayed was far above anything I've ever seen.
I have no problem saying this documentary brought tears to my eyes multiple times. There isn't many things that can compare to real drama of giving all you have plus more.

(We) boxing fans, know Arturo Gatti was murdered. No matter what the horrible Brazilian police and government say.

R.I.P Arturo Gatti

Thank you both, "Irish" Mickey Ward and Arturo "Thunder" Gatti.

True warriors there, most exciting fights I've ever seen along with only a handful of others. The whole murder thing does look suspicious, gonna have to read up more on it... RIP Gatti

The fact it happen right after his wife gained rights to all property and earnings. Among other strange events including sloppy investigation. Just doesn't add up.
