I know this is in the current scene forum, but there's a lot on here who don't visit there so i thought i'd make a new topic.
The circumstances aren't clear at the minute but looks like foul play. Damn shame for such a warrior who left it all in the ring each and every time.

Some are destined to die young. Gatti will always be James Dean to the boxing world.
