Those close to Gatti crushed by news of his death
Sad day for boxing as yet another legend dies early, and tragically.
Condolences to all his family and friends.
Jesus! What a waste! Was shocked when I first heard the news this morning, but now found out his wife could have been behind it? Bloody hell, hope they get to the bottom of this and it doesn't drag on. RIP Champ
That left hook and never say die attitude in the ring I will never forget. The Ward fights just literally made me jump off my seat. Amazing heart and excitement. RIP. :cool:
Shocked to hear the news. FFS!!!!!!!!!
Latest word is Brazilian police detained her ass now. And they're looking at her as a prime suspect.
I am more angry now than sad. I hope they fry the biitch.
Vic ortiz should have to sit and watch all of his fights before considering the career of a true prize fighter not so much a knock on ortiz as it is huge respect for gatti .......ortiz was just the most recent example of the exact opposite of what gatti was in the ring.

Here's more details.
They are now saying that the wound to the back of the head was from a stabbing.

Thx. man; hadn't gone through all the threads when I posted.
Well last night as a true fan after watching the Darchinyan Agbeko travesty I put on Gatti vs Dorin one of my favorites and then the Rodriguez fight.
You will be sadly missed Arturo!!!
Damn, that poor kid is going to have some real psychological issues to deal with as he gets older. :(
Well I hope Donald Trump and and company (like Gatti's promoter) send a personal hit squad on this bitch. The saviour of AC IMO.
Maybe she used a friggin ice pick cuz the police says there's not a lot of blood in the crime scene. Just like Joe Pesci in the movie Goodfellas when he stabbed someone in the back of the head.
Some say boxing is too serious now, and lacks the characters it once had.....
Well Gatti may not go down as one of the great ones, but he made boxing fun for me, and his battles with Ward and in particular (to me) Robinson will live on in my mind.
Unlike many today, he had personality in the ring, and stayed honest to it. Boxing is the toughest game in the world, but I always finished watching a Gatti fight with a smile on my face.
SHOCK :confused:. This is horrible
WTF!!:oTHIS WIFE KILLED HIM,LOOKS THAT WAY DOES'NT IT.Such a shame,Gatti had Heart and Desire by the tonne loads!
Awesome wars he had.
RIP LEGEND GATTI,IM GUTTED:eek:*
R.I.P. Arturo Gatti
May the person responsible for his death Rot in Hell!!!
I found it hard to sleep last night after hearing this just before I got into bed.
Still shocked. First fight I saw of him was Wilson Rodriguez fight and I just thought - wow. Tried to catch every fight after that if possible. Was never the greatest fighter but is third on my all time favourite fighters list for sure after Ali and Benn.
I would have loved to see him fight in the flesh though was kind of glad a fight with Hatton never arose because I would have been in Gatti's corner for that one.
Not sure who said it in The Ring, maybe Jack Ryan, but they summed his career up by saying a few years ago (as best I can remember) "Arturo Gatti may not be one of the greats but he is a fighter who will guarantee you have underpaid for your ticket, even if ringside, every time he steps into the ring".
I had considered making the IBHOF trip for his (undoubted) inaugration in 3 years time as it would have coincided with my 40th birthday - two days after Gatti's would have been.
I like to play as Gatti in Fight Night but don't think I am going to be able to do so just yet :eek:
Legend :appl:
RIP Arturo - I doubt boxing will ever see your kind again.

WIFE !!!!!
I'm sick about this. Down to my core. What the f#@$? I can't even write about it.
I missed this when I was online yesterday, but what horrible news so soon after Arguello died as well.
True warrior, always gave everything when he stepped through the ropes, even when he was outmatched and victory was unlikely. Never dull, never a quitter.
RIP.
Been on my stag do all weekend and only just logged on and heard the tragic news. Gatti wasnt the most gifted fighter in terms of skill but man he had one of the biggest hearts in boxing.
RIP Arturo Thunder Gatti you will be missed by all thanks for the memories!!

It shows how ridiculous life is. A year or so ago she was having a fit watching her husband get punched in the mouth now she murders him. :-\

What did you think happened? It seems like the Mutt was correct, no? ;)
No, it's not the same woman. I thought it was initially, but I just found this video that gives details of his death, and it shows her being taken in by the police, and it's not the same woman from the Gomez fight.Quote:

You sure? If that woman had blond hair it could be the one from the Gomez fight, maybe? :-\Quote:

First reports were, his head was bashed in. It's also hard to strangle someone unless they're dead to the world. They tend not to like it and struggle a tad. I stand by what I said it takes a fair amount of strength to do it unless the victim is unconscious.Quote:

If it's true and looking at her size in the VT should could be Khan's next opponent.
Positive. This girl is tiny compared to the other woman, and the face is totally different. Plus, if it was the same woman, that means the woman from 2 years ago was only 21, and no way in hell was that woman 21.Quote:
