Micky Ward's boxing recovery. Micky Ward vs Arturo Gatti

[MightyWhitey8814]

Concussions happen more often than you think in boxing. When you get "rocked" or in other words dazed by a good shot that is a mild concussion. Micky Ward is a fuckin warrior IRISH PRIDE!

[irishphil757]

Mexican and Irish the baddest motherfuckers to ever live!

[MightyWhitey8814]

@irishphil757 The Irish are but mexicans are just dog shit.

[iamthedarkavenger]

Take a good look kids, this man is a bad muthafucker.

[fingig1]

That bit with him joking with Gatti is unbelievable!



[iamthedarkavenger]

@fingig1 I know right, two warriors just doing what warriors do. That was wild.

[sameer594]

The doctor is like donald rumsfeld 3:50

[judikerr]

[mashrescue1]

My big debut as the EMT, but it was awesome!!

[55mrfuckhead]

Best boxing trilogy ever

[ry3304]

THE TRULY GREAT FIGHTS ARE ALSO GREAT HUMAN BEINGS...

FEDOR, WARD, GATTI, NOGUIERA, ETC LOLS

;.

[fuckoff187]

[treid100182]

Ward might be the nicest human being on the planet.

[2egypt]

Loved the movie....now I want to find out all about Micky Ward, an amazing fighter and personality. Wish him all the best.

[tyson55]

The cool thing about this is that they showed this footage before a Gatti fight! after this he walked in the ring with Gatti. Him and Dale Earhart jr.

[abunjahal]

He's a nice guy and a great fighter.. thats rare.

[Elisangela509]

 who's won ?

[DodgeDweller420]

@Elisangela509 mickey won the first fight and gatti won the last 2 fights they had. it was a great trilogy

[SDK2584]

@Elisangela509 Ward and Gatti fought three times. Ward won the first fight and Gatti the last two, all by decision. The footage shown here is after their last fight in 2003.

[stephendavies92]

good old micky what a flim not has good has the really micky ward

[upshaboya]

[upshaboya]

@aoxomoxoa88 dats how sport should b.. leave it on da pitch or in dis case da ring

[aoxomoxoa88]

@upshaboya I agree.

[WorldMilitia]

@upshaboya yep

[Flashtonen]

his wife looks great, just like in the movie

[djoakley2099]

shame jim lampley is the narrator he's an arse

[massterra]

Arturo was a personal friend going back as far as the third grade and my respect for him is sheilded with brotherly love, but Ward, is as honest a soul as one could find amongst our people. What a class act, gentleman and respectable person. A fan 4 life.

[kosovanwhizkid]

@HelloKittyGodess Yeah okay buddy, I hope that great 'comeback' has made your life a little happier. Just so you know, we have officially established that your mother has been cock-eyed. Lets leave it at that, since you were so eager to get your mother into this clever conversation.

Good day.

[kosovanwhizkid]

@HelloKittyGodess Nope failed with that one. You talked shit and shit came your way, now go and sit in the corner.

[MrREYWARD]

@3:33 lol... shaking front mirror,,mickey ward tough man!

[kosovanwhizkid]

@HelloKittyGodess Your mum must have sucked a lot of Ward cock. Micky and Dicky combo, filling both holes.

[kosovanwhizkid]

Great fight I've ever seen.

[AvisWrentmore]

God Bless Mickey Ward

[f3nder111]

@HelloKittyGodess ; cuz your mom a slut

[scuz55]

mickey ward = one tough fucker

[Ninjikayatsu]

Gatti and Ward remind me of Barrera and Morales. Except Barrera and Morales hated each other with such a passion.

[aic029]

His brain was actually shifted in his skull, hence the double vision. That just sounds brutal. And yes boxing needs more fighters like Ward and Gatti, not so worried about their already fat wallets.

[ztme07]

lol gatti vs mayweather

[skagen27]

Micky Ward, One of the true greats in boxing.

[LilGuilty702]

we need more boxers like Ward Gatti

[freakinricandito]

I happen to find the scene with him and Gatti hanging out in the dressing room b4 gattis fight priceless.

[Roop433]

Lowell all day

[hangnail17]

Mickey, you have proved yourself, you will start feeling better. Regardless of the amount of money you are offered, you have your health, you have money. Count your blessing and stay retired. There should be no amount of money to jeopardize your well being. Congratulations to you.

[Maryjaneslave]

look at him just chomping on that handful of asprin like it's candy

[dandemon1989]

@Maryjaneslave i think that was ice

[Maryjaneslave]

@dandemon1989: I suppose that makes more sense

[kunkushun1]

'Irish' Mickey Ward fuckin tuff sob.

[kingsteve55]

And they say MMA is a dangerous sport? Micky Ward is the toughest motherfucker around. RIP Gatti

[mlafon25]

what his movie trailers.apple.com coming December and have to say thank you to Mickey Ward and his family for bring the city of lowell to light

[agoodud]

A true animal warrior and a nice guy to boot

[Lippreader]

WOW that story shows us how mercyless the sport is. All respect to mr. Ward!

[Pinoy2500]

Micky a true warrior, nothing but respect to a fighter like that.

[123ghz]

"yeh im alright, lil bumped up" lol

[bennythebull93]

ward and gatti was one of the most entertaining rivalries in boxing of all time

[stevestoner13]

Dear God! Ward's fucking tough. No doubt about that.

[ElephantRage]

349 is a lot

[Nqorule336]

Now you see why a good defence is important. Floyd Mayweather never took that type of punishment from Gatti.

[dan32113]

if i ever needed a man to help me "when the shit hit the fan!" Micky Ward would get the call. Legend!

[flatpat1]

After hearing dana white and joe rogan constantly talk shit about boxing, I've never been so hateful toward those shitbags after seeing this video. Boxing is the real combat sport, theres no lunging in and tackling your opponent if your getting your head kicked in.You just have to keep going toe to toe and take a beating.

[yankees101979]

@flatpat1 ufc last a few min hitting all over the body ,taking shots to the head for 12 rds is insane i dont care if they wear gloves dont get me wrong ufc looks painful hahahaha

[stevens15007]

Got voted fighter with most heart,too true,stay retired Mikey you already a legend.

[GAZ9025]

best brawler

[DereeceG]

in the hospital, great sportsmanship

[jitrenice]

6:53 this guy need to get his rear view mirror fixed!

[xMIKEBROWN30x]

Other promoters want him to keep fighting, with symptoms of double vision and loss of peripheral vision in his right eye? Just goes to show they don't give a shit about the boxers as human beings, only as money makers.

[prettywiseguy]

I bet Don King made him an offer...

[NoahRMendoza]

@prettywiseguy True, the man is practically evil.

[Fripitto]

1:12 'Why I picked this sport?' :)

[andykokolis1977]

Ward was a great fighter his movie is going to be awesome.

[RickWolffTV]

Is that movie (The Fighter, right?) happening? I heard Arynovski's project was on again off again. Is Wahlberg still playing the lead? WOuld love to see it come out.

[Midnightrambler3760]

Great fighters do not get hit with every punch. Somehwere along the line he should have invested some time in learning defense.

[yankees101979]

@andykokolis1977 ya man i was watching them film it ooks cool

[sz42781]

@andykokolis1977 whats it called and when is it coming out

[TBONE889]

@andykokolis1977 just saw it...it is awesome...just wish there was more focus on how a tough motherfucker he was in the ring than the personal life!!

[cnoc1916]

@andykokolis1977 Wow! 10/10 for his movie.......absolutly superb!

[vichetmeng]

@andykokolis1977 YES, INDEED, The movie was FUCKING awesome...

[Olthetime]

Really does show just how much these guys give. Especially in the case of all 3 times these two met.

[emmyxbabey]

Mickey Ward lives down my street,

i would sometimes see him walk his dogs,

[DARQMX]

Same here! haha. His gym is down the street too, I can't wait to see his movie.

[emmyxbabey]

whats the name of his gym ?

[ahjvsajgb]

how about u ask for an autograph then

[barackobamaexpress]

Micky "the drunken Mick" Ward = overrated white hype. Zab beat the white off that motherfucker, haha

[MMAstriker101]

you need to kill yourself, blacks would not be in this country without WHITE PEOPLE...stop being racist its not going to get you anywhere!

[DARQMX]

What are u black? You nigger?

[barackobamaexpress]

Yeah, AND?

[DARQMX]

oh I should of guessed with the Obama thing. Figures. Stupid nigs. lmao

[Flipper79able]

People will always say that about a white professional athlete especially jealous black people who are threatened by everything.

[robbieirish]

fuck you fucking nigger. barackobamaexpress! lol another useless fucking nignog! back to the field ya bum

[hdjbby]

have you guy's seen Micky's brother on youtube? his name is Dicky and it's called HIGH ON CRACK STREET...UNBELIEVEABLE!!!!!!

[classicfanatics]

R.I.P ARTURO "THUNDER" GATTI.... he was ALWAYS so EXCITING to watch !! he was a throwback fighter that could get knocked down 3 to 4 times and still come back and knock his opponent out. there was no doubt that gatti was a great boxer but he just loved to bang and go to war. he could of made fights easier 4 himself but he loved to please the crowd because he was a warrior !! damn !! it's really sad to end his life the way it did. thank u for all the great fights arturo !! i'll miss u bro !!

[Midnightrambler3760]

You are wrong about making fights exciting to please the crowd. Fighters make fights exciting because they lack the defensive skill to not make them exciting. If Arturo Gatti posessed great defensive skill, do you not think he would have used it?

[PrOzAcUsEr666]

@Midnightrambler3760 Gatti was using his hand speed to dominate Ward with combinations in the first fight before taking shots from a Ward that tried to bully him and then he turned to brawling. So yes I do honestly believe that even if Gatti's defense was better he would have not used it in order to brawl.

[Midnightrambler3760]

So in the first fight Gatti let a lesser boxer who he was dominating drag him into a Brawl? Who won?

Wasn't very smart was he?

[PrOzAcUsEr666]

@Midnightrambler3760 No it wasn't actually but it shows he did have hand speed which applies skil.

[Midnightrambler3760]

Gatti was more skilled than Ward. But hand speed does not necessarily mean good defense.

The fact that both guys were landing at over 70% shows there was very little defense going on.

[RobotsandRacecars]

ward+gatti =WAR

[anubadapatpassword]

He looked like he got hit by a car.

[neaput1]

Makes me want to cry. Ward/Gatti was the best and they beat respect into each other. They made my old body feel like I could take on the world. Ward is a good person, and I hope he lives a long life.

[Taffykill]

R.I.P. Arturo

Truly a legend.

[prowolf1]

Sure, both are great incredible warriors. But what´s about the responsibility of the ref and the coaches to prevent their fighters from severe punishment, injuries and handicaps which last for the rest of the life? And which pleasure have "fans" to see their heroes as cripples after their career?

[zr24X4ROCKS]

great respect between these two great warriors . R.I.P. ARTURO !

[julzstyle]

Gatti was from Montreal !

Montrealers are tough

Look at GSP!

R.I.P Gatti. You're the reason why i started watching boxing. What's wrong with bitches theses days.... mcnair, then gatti, fuckthem bitches, i hope they rot in prison. If it was the contrary, people would say look at these violent men bla bla bla, but now that it's the damn bitches, nobody speaks out!

[classicfanatics]

WELL MCNAIR'S BITCH IS GONNA ROT IN HELL SINCE THAT CRAZY BITCH KILLED HERSELf !!

[redpacman45]

who is micky taliking to at 2:32 - 2:47? is that gatti? can someone confirm this?

[AlCal88]

yep

[sudsybaker]

Hey Red,,that is Gatti next to Ward in the Hospital. Ward was joking that he needs a size 10 shoe..and Gatti was laughing about that with Ward..

Two great warriors.....RIP Arturo.

[redpacman45]

thanks.

[EllieMaeD5]

irish boxers are class!!! people like barry mcguigan wayne mccolough steve collins bernard dunne john duddy andy lee and u can sorta count micky ward!

[xplund]

Sorta count Mickey Ward?! I don't care if he never got the title, he was one of the best fighters I ever saw. He was a class act. So was Gatti.

[ozzieb69]

i think what ellie maed5 means is that miki ward isnt irsh the rest were born and raised irsh

[schoopsmack]

he isnt irish? my parents are from sweden i was born in the usa ...so i guess im not swedish by your logic

[irishrover1967]

lol mickey is a legend lol i bet he was sore as fuck after that gatti fight and gatti must have been sore too lol they knocked the fuck outta each other

[spykelee02]

Micky Ward is awesome, one of my favorite fighters of all time. Classy too. And he's tough because of both his heritage, and environmental factors surrounding his upbringing. I think that's fair to say. I wonder what he would say regarding all of the things discussed about him?

[pizzaman978]

he wouldn't have a thing to say about it i'm sure. micky's a pretty humble guy. he doesn't go around town show boating and talking smack. he's one of the most down to earth guy's i know. he'd probably laugh. that's about it.

[spykelee02]

I work with a family member of his, she says the same thing about him pretty much. Always nice to have positive representatives of professional boxing, because some people can really give it a bad name with their attitudes and lack of professionalism... Thus somewhat tarnishing the reputations of the boxers who were always respectable.

[pizzaman978]

it isn't about being irish. i've lived in lowell my whole life. theres more irish here then there is in the whole of ireland . that means people who's families came here to work in the mills and dig the canals 150 years ago, to people gettin off the boat as we speak. micky aint tough cause he's irish or because of the way he grew up. he's a world class boxer because he put 110 percent into it . you irishmen talk all the shit in the world. you fuckin love america though and you know it.

[vegasmark07]

mickey ward is a legend that guy traded more then most fighters will

[Arstu123]

Ward is taking "few" painkillers :D

[BIGFELLA123]

Tough SOB

[aceofbass1994]

weres gatti's recovery video? he broke his hand

[red9969]

micky is de toughest boxer

[lowellirish]

TOUGH, TOUGH, TOUGH...All I hear...He's a jerk. Period. I got sucker-punched by him after him and his 7 friends ransacked Mary M's party in Lowell! They just walked in uninvited and started a fight- "Chevy vs Ford" (remember you douchebag?!) I laugh every time I see your face! Just like mine was! ASSHOLE. GOOD!! Hey, I was STILL standing, wasn't I?! Fuck you!

[peaceman1234567]

Sounds like another boxer who`s meant to be disciplined but isn`t.You see the Amir Khan v Micheal Gomez fight in Britain? No? Well i drive a taxi and Gomez jumps in and becomes a complete cunt.There you have it.

[ih8britishpeople]

rah im irish ill kick all ur asses pussy wannabes

[1985rrr]

"ih8britishpeople" you Yankees are such an insult to us real Irish - those born and raised in Ireland, not a bunch of Plastic Paddies from the USA humping some distant heritage. you hate British people? you never even met one, mate. grow up and get your own identity.

[mikehoncho00]

Whatever having irish heritage is something of pride. Stop being a hater and embrace fellow irish people. I for one wish my ancestors had stayed in ireland, but i didnt have a choice. I'm still proud of where I'm from. That's like telling black people to not say they are from africa because they don't live there. You are a hater, fag.

[joeytrimble]

i'm hearin that

[CelticKid92]

haha irish americans embarrass u???? ok well lets just take a look at boxing: irish american fighters r way better than fighters born in ireland. jack dempsey, terry mcgovern, gene tunney, micky ward, gerry cooney, jerry quarry???? any of those names sound familiar?? u should be proud of irish americans and call us ur brothers asshole.

[irishrover1967]

fighters born in ireland that have been world champions barry mcguigan wayne mccolough steve collins,Jack McAuliffe Eamonn Loughra,George,Gardinern,Johnn­y Caldwell Rinty Monaghan I could go on but i wont so dont talk your balls about irish american fighters are better

[st5188]

Fuck you

[st5188]

IRISH CUNT

[eggheadAKAspensley]

irish are tought cause IN IRLAND! its a hard tough livin.. irland was poverty striken for hundreds of years and life was a fight to survive.. that has stayed in the mentality of the irish

[chngdwrld]

Alot of class-it's hard to find in a fighter-Ward and Gatti>Historical men that should be looked up to-MUCH RESPECT

[CADAVERHUSK]

Terry Wogan is Irish too...

[Elreypachuco]

"Irish" Mickey Ward = WARRIOR!!

[esco42085]

of course hes tough, hes irish.

irish are to white people what mexicans are to latinos, and what the vietnamese are to asians.

[KayNyne13]

there's a book that came out on his life not long ago..he ain't tough cuz he's Irish, of course he's a old school descendant of the Fighting Irish..but he had a hardcore and tough life growing up..that's what made him such a warrior. ''Irish Thunder by Bob Halloran'' seems to be a great book!

[pugile80]

lol i agree mate.. im going out with an irish grl,,, and i thought us italians are tuff lol..... she fucken puts me in my place :(

[pugile80]

lol i agree mate.. im going out with an irish grl,,, and i thought us italians are tuff lol..... she fucken puts me in my place :(

[PeteThePrinceFTW]

Gatti is arguably just as tough if not tougher. Italian fighters have shown to be the toughest fighters ever. That's the truth.

[ongwill79]

This guy is tough.
