Legendary Nights: Gatti-Ward Trilogy

[Anthony342]

Did anyone see this tonight? I did, really liked it, nice tributes to Gatti, great career stories of both fighters. Just too bad Arturo isn't around to see it or be interviewed for it. I don't believe he took his own life either. Anyway, what did you guys think of it?

I haven't seen the program but it was definitely a great trilogy, slightly underrated in my opinion simply because it wasn't fought at the highest level of the sport and what was on the line was pride rather than anything of note in terms of titles, and number one rankings.

But take nothing away from what these men did, Mickey went to hell and back with one of the hardest hitting guys in the sport. It was great fun. Mickey once said, years after the trilogy was a beautiful memory that, "Gatti was my greatest rival but also my greatest friend". It's only in boxing that men who aim to beat each other endless can go get a drink when it's all over.

Honestly, i thought it ****** for a legend nights,,,,, It was more about their friendship, then the actual fight,,,

Was a great documentry but i have seen alot better legendary nights, like chavez-taylor, foreman-moore, etc

I mostly agree, and after reading all the rave reviews it was a letdown for me. But if you're a big Gatti fan, you'll probably love it. I prefer it to be centered around boxing and less about melancholy sentiment. I'm sorry for what happened to Gatti, but I've seen Lampley cry enough already.

Not even gonna act like I didn't cry like a b!tch at some of this Thoroughly enjoyed it, probably because Gatti's one of my favourite fighters of all-time.

most memorable part was when they showed the crime scene photos of a dead gatti,,,

That caught me off guard, it was pretty graphic

Yeah i agree that it was a good documentary,, i just think it was a bad legendary nights,,,, It didnt focus enough on the fights....
They shouldnt have used the legendary nights title, and instead called it the gatti-ward documentry or something like that

One great fight doesn't make a great trilogy.

Good thing there was three great fights huh?
