    A Gatti fight? How green? That is the craziest boxing fan story ever.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I definitely didn't even watch boxing yet, but I'd imagine the hardcore fans would've known it would likely be a war. Ward was coming off another crazy FOTY with Augustus(which he was very lucky to win), and then was unlucky against Leija, who I thought took an easy out. Going on that form you could have assumed he and Gatti would match up like that.

    We were thinking Gatti was a used up warrior looking to rebound for more bouts vs contenders and Ward was a used up journeyman. It was just supposed to be a simple great action fight that to show well Gatti should have KO'd Ward mid to late or just walked in a UD.

    Not to sound like a boxing snob but gattI-ward was not a figjt that got me excited when it got signed...

    That fight and round was not forgettable. It was the total opposite. Referees should let fights go on more.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    This one had to be a war going in. I honestly thought Ward was going to knock him out prior.
