Report: Arturo Gatti may consider a comeback
The Canadian Press is reporting that Arturo Gatti is considering a return to the ring.
The story included these quotes by promoter Yvon Michel, who sounds like he's doing his best to lure Gatti back:
"He hasn't said he will fight and will make a comeback. He's training, but not in a boxing gym."
"He hasn't made up his mind completely. If he ever decided to go that route, we'd be thrilled to work with him."
The story also suggested that Gatti, a native of Montreal, "covets" a Canadian title, one of the few belts he didn't win during his pro career.
Main Events promoted Gatti and when contacted by Newsday, was dismissive of the report. In e-mail to the Neutral Corner, Donald Tremblay, Main Events' PR boss, wrote:
"I don't think it's real. Either way Main Events would not be involved."
Let's hope Tremblay is right. Gatti has given so much to the sport, there is no need to give more. The 36-year-old former champion last fought on July 14, 2007, losing to "The Contender" star, Alfonzo Gomez.
