Ten years ago Thursday boxing great Arturo Gatti was found dead in his hotel while on vacation with his wife in Brazil. While originally ruled a suicide, two years after his death it was determined Gatti had actually been murdered.
Boxing writer Dan Rafael (@danrafaelespn) reminds us to take a moment to watch one of Gatti’s most impressive wins, his second round knockout of Leonard Dorin (aka Leonard Doroftei) from July 24, 2004. It was the first, only and last loss of Dorin’s 24-fight career.
10 years ago tonight Arturo Gatti electrified Boardwalk Hall with this nasty KO win to retain his 140 title: https://t.co/XC2mArGtga #boxing
