What is the purpose of the Hall of Fame? I think it is for boxers who deserve to be remembered for what they did in the ring. He's not the GOAT. He's not an ATG, but the man should -- and will -- be remembered as the man with the most amazing comebacks.Originally posted by mangler View Post
I think it all boils down to how you define the HOF. If it's only for the best of the best then Gatti doesn't deserve to be included. But if it includes boxers who participated in numerous memorable fights then he ought to be included.
Gatti deserves to be remembered.Comment

Last time I checked, you don't win world titles based on heart alone.Comment

Yes, he deserves it. He was my favorite boxer. Certainly not the best ever, but 4 fights of the year.
Anyone who voted "No" must not have seen any of the Robinson or Ward fights. They were epic.Comment

Reasons why gatti is not a hof'er
didn't win one round in his brutal, one sided losses to mayweather and de la hoya
lost to journeymen like ivan robinson, mickey ward and alfonso gomez
never defeated a single hof fighter.
Loved to see him fight, but he was not a hof'erComment

Gatti put on great fights, but wasn't a great fighter. He may get in based on sentimentality, but not on merit.Comment
