@Superchild88 well...MMA is just now coming around. I Mean...Boxing is great. but not anymore no disrespect or anything but...Come on Boxing isnt exciting anymore. The 2002-2005 era was the last who ra of boxing to be honest. MMA has some fights as good as this too...Just look at Shogun vs Machida
No disrespect to mma either; they are hard, well trained individuals. but it come nowhere close to the excitement of a classic boxing match. Ju-jistsu is not an expectaort sport, unless you like physically defined men wrestilng with each other.
@buddhafish69 Yeah i totally agree. Boxing has something that MMA does not i don't know what it is maybe its the heart, soul or whatever you want to call it. Personally when i watch an MMA fight there is some kind of void or something missing that really cant get me into it much.
@Superchild88 The void could be this: in MMA the fight would have ended at the point where Ward was knocked down because Gatti wouldve jumped on top of him and the fight would be stopped. In boxing guys get the 8 count and can come back, in UFC they dont.
@staunchx I think you may be right. It also shows the heart of the fighter being knocked down and how he deals with it after. Its always great to see a fighter come back after that.
At 6:02 Micky gave me the chills. To come back with a signature punch after being knocked down a few moments prior is just amazing. Micky is just a beast. I'd love to meet him.
That right hand would have killed me, literally i would have died in the ring, Ward not only gets up, but fires back......fuck me that is one tough son of a bitch
christ..micky ward is one tough son of a bitch...gatti too.....if you were in a foxhole and you had these two fuckers in there with you...you know they'd have your back...true warriors
@KrazieHavoc I Agree Brother, These Two Boxers Have Hearts Of GOLD!! R.I.P. Arturo Gatti one of the Greatest fighters of all time. In My opinion, He is the closest to the REAL LIFE ROCKY BALBOA.
OH, MAN! Ward is such a fuckin warrior.. Gettin hit on or around the ear was one of the worst feelings I ever felt in my life, and shit.. I could barely stand let alone defend, fight back and coax a world champion to carry on hittin me.. wtf! Crazy. They don't make em like Gatti or Ward no more.
@laistar Micky Ward said that right hand knocked him out on his feet, the 2nd big right hand while he was on the ropes woke him up! Thats why he bangs his torso, he"d just woken up.
round three best round of the fight-George "come on Jim tell us something!" Lampley "you don't need a blow by blow man to tell you about this, you know what your watching!"
Holy fuck, the heart on Irish Micky Ward man. He was as hurt as i've ever seen anyone with 2 minutes to go and he comes back with some fire of his own.
Again, I would've stopped it because Ward's legs were shaky as hell
