I am seeing your point perfectly, it was an amazing fight, very entertaining and the reason for that was because they are both balls out brawlers. The 2nd and 3rd fights were a farce because Gatti decided to box Ward and it was a huge mismatch. The point is that both fighters do not come even close to being elite or even contenders, they are proving grounds for many great fighters but they themselves were never considered great fighters.
Entertaining fighters? Yes! Great or even good fighters? No.
So their fight can't be considered in the same list with ali vs. frazier or holmes and norton. These were premier fighters who met in or close to their primes and had a lot at stake.
If I was asked my top 10 FAVORITE fights, then gatti - ward ranks in the top 10.
