Why I Love Boxing

As you all will find out I have three passions in life (well, three passions that don't involve naked women)1. Politics, 2. Film Making (my newest passion) and 3. Boxing (my oldest passion). I just love the sport of Boxing. I've embedded a clip of the 9th round of the first fight between "Irish" Micky Ward from Lowell Massachusetts and Arturo "Thunder" Gatti . This was not Championship fight nor was it the biggest payday for either of the fighters. Just bragging rights were at stake.

Going into the 9th round both men had already fought a tough fight. The 9th round is considered by many to be one of the greatest rounds in the history Boxing. as you watch the clip I want you to listen to the voices of the announcing team from HBO, these are harden professional announcers who have seen it all. They are over come by emotion as they watch the fight. It does not get any better than this. Dappa
