Arturo "Thunder" Gatti VS "Irish" Micky Ward I (5/18/2002) Part 2

[Snuckdoodle]

Irish Micky Ward!

[marcdogthelova]

8:11 HOOOOOOOOLY SHIT!!!

[xugamer07]

If someone were to make argument that boxing is art, this fight would be a perfect example. A timeless masterpiece!

[PoopFart57]

How the fuck did gatti take that massive combo to the chin!?!?!?!?

[Master8laster]

the timekeeper jizzed his pants

[Master8laster]

Gatti , always made the crowd thunder

[ebonygentleman79]

What a 5th round! Guts personified. Future fighters (Boxing and MMA) take notes. The money will run out, the pain is temporary, but pride lasts forever.

[freddyfreddy101]

the best fight ever! rip gatti!

[DASDRO]

8:11 typical Ward - out of nowhere!

[bluewidow121]

bot of them were awesome

[mrharoldb]

this fight is so 1950s style its brilliant.

[miloszewski]

nothing i can say here that hasn't already been said...but... wow. just wow. i won't claim to have watched the most boxing fights ever, but i cannot imagine there being a better fight...

[HeavyD2544]

@miloszewski I'm not sure if it beats this or not, but go to my channel and watch Aaron Pryor vs. Alexis Arguello under my playlists. Arguello was a 3 weight champ, and Aaron Pryor actually had the belt from this weight class in 1980. They fought this way for more than 12 rounds as title fights generally went 15 back then. Give it a look. It was voted fight of the decade for the 80's. It's my favorite next to this one, but it had better overall boxers. Pryor and Arguello are legends.

[randyds5]

woooooooow. Im typically a fan of MMA, but its wars like this that make me remember the sweet-science of boxing. Both of these men deserve respect. Fucking amazing boxing skills.

[Lassannn]

I have never seen a more ass-stomping trilogy in boxing history. I thought Ali-Frazier would never be toppled, but this did it.

[k1495knot]

Absolutely stunning. Theyre beyond human

[randylahey111]

in between round four and five if u listen closely u can hear mickey's brother eklund telling him a couple of times to hit him low haha

[focusandcreate]

Dude, he got hit in the balls!!! Yikes!

[PhflyDan1]

A penis dislodging low blow, from a tremendous puncher. And Micky didnt even get the upto 5mins he was promised... ShoooooT!!!

[johnosandra]

this makes me chill and sends me into a fit of joy and a overwhelming feeling of love for the sport of boxing

[herociouz]

This is history, baby!!

[Lassannn]

When I saw this the first time, I just stood there with my mouth open. They should both have died after this.

[PillsKillsKIlls]

thanks to that new movie these videos will prob be brought down =( classic fight i remember watching this with my dad when i was a sophmore never forgot how amazing it was havent seen it since thanks so much for posting it man, my all time favorite fight

[8ozGloves]

this shit is humbling!

[screwdrived]

Oh my god!

[hennen1234]

5:27 - "I'm all set I wanna go" - Ward. Fuck, Irish Americans are tough!

[joshmar11]

first time watching this fight, and wow. i was thinkin ward looked finished for this round then a five punch combo on the chin and things turn back around, Amazing stuff.

[virtr3uoso]

Amazing

[edyb8888]

does anyone know how much these fights produced each?

[Master8laster]

shame on wahlberg for not putting this fight in the movie , gatti deserved it so did ward.

[TUTUMAH]

This gotti woulda smashed boldamir! note...he was winning until the 10th round in that fight!

[MrKushez]

in terms of toughness.....Ward is up their with Lamotta

[chipp06]

one of my favorite fights of all time...

[oasis4ever92]

possibly the two bravest fighters to ever lace up gloves in one ring. i've seen thriller in manila, ive seen rumble in the jungle, ive seen corrales vs castillo...but this is on another level. Greatest fight of all time

[mizzoulibertarian]

Here is the rule, a dagoshould never mes with an irish american

[mrgor24]

does Lederman ALWAYS use the same template for when they cut to him???

"ALRIGHT JIM, [#] to [#], [score 1] to [score 2] for [winning boxer]

"JIM, I GOTTA TELL YA, [winning boxer] is not only showing us [obvious reason for being ahead], but he's also [another obvious reason for being ahead and how it's helping him stay in control]. In that last round he [note best part of round for winning boxer] beautifully."

[PhflyDan1]

I dont CARE that Money beat im or would beat Ward. But Arturo & Micky put it on THE LINE bless! Floyd will NEVER be in a scrap like this. NEVER!!

[FEENEYSON]

@PhflyDan1  ppl that say bless are faggots.. you are a faggot!

[jmkenola]

04:00 what a nutcracker

[shaggar70]

Best fight ever

[tom11zz884]

two raw, untalented fighters giving it their all

[mmmichaelb]

@tom11zz884

"untalented"

lol.

[Zerrick80]

8:12, Floyd said it best, "All Gatti does is catch punches"

[Jetball74]

Gatti MAYBE (and a big maybe) saved by the bell??? Any1 agree?

[Zerrick80]

@Jetball74 Thats not a big maybe. The left hook after that unbelievable combination is what had him about to go. Then he got hit with a big right hand. 15 - 20 more seconds in that round, Gatti would have been getting up off the canvas.

[jmarra07]

Bet Emmanuel Steward had to change his pants after the 4th round haha

[mizzoulibertarian]

I wonder what Ward workouts are like.

[erian2009]

THIS!! ...is what boxing needs, two warriors that just wanna fight! Forget the money! forget the ppv revenues!! forget everything just get in there and toe to toe with someone and slug it out!! jose luis castillo vs diego corrales, barrera vs morales, gatti vs ward, boxing just needs one more WAR!! to comeback. good fight!! one of, if not, the best fight of all time!!

[IrelandRaven]

ward has an irish fighting heart alright.

[timpano]

thanks for the vid, man

[tuptugen]

8:12 Thats just beautiful stuff.Nuff said........I think ive never seen more perfected left hook to the body,than the one owned by Ward. In addition,i have to say that Gatti could box very nicely...i had him in memory more like a brawler and puncher but here he showed very nice movement and boxing abilites..

[iiuh1]

lol at manny stewerd having an orgasm at 8:00

[andrewl07]

That flurry by ward around 8:00 is absolutely amazing.

[Fripitto]

8:05-8:30 --> :D

[newmagnum49r1]

oh lord, what a fight

RIP gatti

[boutassai]

F**king 8:12 beautiful combination by Ward.

[mattbatley1]

@boutassai ur right it was fucking beautiful ive watched boxing for years but this would be my best fight ever i would think round 9 is awesome

[Crafter07]

@boutassai The best combination i have ever seen!!!!!!!!!

[focusandcreate]

@boutassai How the hell did Gatti not go down???? Seriously, I don't think either of these guys are human when they fight eachother.

[FSMNoodlyAppendage]

@boutassai It was like Arturo knew how awesome it would be so he stuck his chin out for Mickey lol.

[MickyWard1]

In five round amazing fucking fight back for Micky Ward!

[thuglyf121212]
