My dad passed away a couple years ago. Mickey was his favorite. His fights with Arturo are cemented in my childhood memory. Thanks for the memories Mick.
Watching Mickey stand and deliver might be one of the best sights in boxing history. The moment his heels hit canvas he came back with the world in each hand. He could walk the greatest down with each hand. Beaten, bloodied, he’d rise and walk you down again. Nothing but hurt in his hands. Dealt nothing but hurt in each and every slug. If I’m at my worst and I need someone behind me, Mickey is the guy. Hands down.
I travel 2400 miles to meet micky ward . Today is a day I'll never forget . He is a very kind man , and a great person , today was and will always be something I remember. My hero is everything I thought we would be .
Bagpipes, heavy guitars, raspy vocals, Celtic crosses and flashes of Mickey Ward on the Ring! ...you cannot make a more BADASS video! 😄 Greetings from Poland!
Thomas herns vs Marvin Hagler, Muhammad ali vs joe frazier.... Speak what you mean... and i have strong doubts Gatti vs Ward was the match of the century... it was good though, no lieing here.
I'm a hip hop guy through and through but I know a bad ass track when I hear it..,.and this is one of them. Props to the salute to Micky Ward, great tribute.
Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place, and I don't care how tough you are... it will beat you to your knees and keep you there if you let it. You, me or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit... and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! If you know what you're worth, go and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers... saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him or her or anybody! Cowards do that, and that ain't you! You're better than that!
I did karate and boxing. Karate taught me control, power and anticipation. Boxing taught me timing and speed. Some learn all from one, some from both, some never no matter what.

Never saw these guys until they did a show after a hockey game in Milwaukee on Feb 24, 2012. Rocked the fucking arena and tore up the stage. Best damn show I have ever been to.
Being a Native Son of Lowell Massachusetts myself it makes me so proud to see one of our own fighting so hard . Truly the Heart of a Lion. Lowell Forever !
The perfect tribute to all those ultra bad ass, fearsome and indomitable Irish and Scottish warriors that fought, bled and perished the World over for causes not their own, along with all those lean, mean, green fighting machines that terrorized their opponents in the ring, and on the street. The Irish and the Scots, Europe's premier warrior races!
When I was a lot younger there were 3 songs that I always had a little part of stuck in my head, I had no idea who the songs were by and what they were called, all I remembered were the tune and a tiny snippet of lyrics. I've spent years wondering about them. As of today I found them all. The 1st was Castaway by Green Day. The 2nd was The Anthem by Good Charlotte and the last was this.
Every white country on earth is supposed to become multicultural and multiracial. Every white country is expected to end its own race and end its own culture. No one asks that of ANY non-white country. Immigration, tolerance, and especially assimilation are being used against the white race. All this immigration and intermarriage is for EVERY white country and ONLY white countries. People are only telling white children in white countries that they need diversity. White countries will be 100% diverse when there are no white people left. Diversity is a code-word for the genocide of white people.
ninjakid6 oops, sorry ninjakid didn't mean to get so close to your trousers. Evolution has, of course, made the human kind develop, as you said “Traits" physical abilities or just plain old characteristics that allow us to adapt better to our surroundings. However, falling in the trap of making up different types of humans is a great big invitation for one of them, preferably the one that has a bit more cash going, to pretend they are superior to another. I couldn't care less if you buy it or not, in two-hundred years globalisation will have finished with the dirty argument.
Cian O'Sullivan We are forced to share every single part of our lives with non-whites, and not allowed to have any exclusive white communities. Nobody is taking away the right of ALL Blacks in ALL Black countries to have anywhere exclusive to live, forcing them to integrate and share every part of their lives with non-Blacks.
Panther tattoo on my hand this days .....THe warrior code ..Thank you to the good people .That believe in me ..Even if you are older .....Boxing stuff .
Told my son about Mickey Ward and how gutty he was. How my son is. Not the biggest but all heart and guts. I played this for my boy every time he had a football game.
I had never heard of Micky Ward until I saw the fighter. I went back and started watching his actual old fights. My God that guy was awesome. Ward Vs Gatti I was maybe the best fight I've ever seen.
+Jake Pullen Yes been to the Old Court more times than I can count. One of my Best Friends worked there for many years. I have been to Gaelic Club too as mentioned in this song! Is it Kelli Demarco now Pullen your Wife???
Jake Pullen Yes! I have known Kelli for a VERY long time. More than half my life..... Haha. Small world. Was I bartending that night at the the Shamrock? Or just there drinking? It was a while ago when I met you with her. Well tell Kelli I said hi :) Happy St Patty's day :)
i was in an entirely other room with a closed door and the commercial for the fighter came on,i ran into the other room and yelled THE WARRIORS CODE! oh cool it's in a movie now.
"You make the most of the hand you're dealt, because a quitter never wins"
Asome!
That's the Irish Code.
You said it man
My dad passed away a couple years ago. Mickey was his favorite. His fights with Arturo are cemented in my childhood memory. Thanks for the memories Mick.
2024, how many of my Irish brothers and sisters are still here with us and going strong?
Watching Mickey stand and deliver might be one of the best sights in boxing history. The moment his heels hit canvas he came back with the world in each hand. He could walk the greatest down with each hand. Beaten, bloodied, he’d rise and walk you down again. Nothing but hurt in his hands. Dealt nothing but hurt in each and every slug. If I’m at my worst and I need someone behind me, Mickey is the guy. Hands down.
C'mon dude. #1 dude is 5'7. #2 guy was AT BEST a fringe contender.
This is boxing at its best! Thank you Mickey Ward. RIP Arturo.
The Murphys are awesome, their music just makes you feel good! They're all about family, friendship and brotherhood.

PS - Epitaph, can we get a better quality? 240p is bollocks, mate!

Not many bands can lift my spirits the way they do.
And hard work. That's what won me over to them. They are working class and take pride in it.
This ones for my old man over 25 years of addiction and 3 years ago finally got sober
Still sober?
quitter never wins
19 years sober
Micky Ward, one tough never give up fighter.
Yeah but what about that Mickey Goldmill?
I've been listening to this song for 16 years and always thought that it's about Rocky's coach Mickey
@@istvanpeterporkolab7918 😂😂😂 That's pretty good dude 😂😂😂
@@istvanpeterporkolab7918dude you can see in the highlights of this video that it's clearly not him😂😂😂

Greetings from Poland!
Micky Ward Vs. Arturo Gatti. The best 3 matches in boxing.
1 & 3 were good 2 was just a boxing lesson from Arturo Gatti (RIP)
@@rogerdelcampo6146 Agreed, top 5 all time, behind the Rumble In The Jungle and with Hagler-Hearns in between.
Mister Twist Hagler Hearns was just a mugging by the Marvelous one but still a great fight!
Thomas herns vs Marvin Hagler, Muhammad ali vs joe frazier.... Speak what you mean... and i have strong doubts Gatti vs Ward was the match of the century... it was good though, no lieing here.
God yes and there's no debate.
And the kid from Lowell Rises to the bell!!! My favorite line
Me to. Lowell forever !!!
LOVE LOWELL ☘️

Always love seeing Irish Micky Ward. AKA Champ!!!
What I love most is the the love for his Arturo....Irish and Italian. Brothers....love
Not gonna lie, this song both motivates me and makes me teary eyed.
Who is still watching this in 2024? #legends. Look up Benny Leonard, the best lightweight ever.

Ward v Gatti are definitely some of the greatest fights in history. Up the Lads!
Soy argentino, pero puedo sentir en cada fibra de mi ser esta canción. Cuando era adolescente con mis amigos teníamos estos mismos "códigos".
This song always makes me feel good! IT MAKES YOU WANNA STAND UP AND FIGHT ALL THE SHIT THAT LIFE THROWS AT YA!
This was my rugby clubs unofficial pump up song/anthem during the season and after we won state championships.... because were the "Warriors"
im second generation irish american from long island new york. been a mickey ward fan since hia first bout with gatti
Never saw these guys until they did a show after a hockey game in Milwaukee on Feb 24, 2012. Rocked the fucking arena and tore up the stage. Best damn show I have ever been to.
Rockin "the Pale" with pride!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Same here! My grandfather was the Ryan mentioned in the second verse. Billy Ryan

Arturo Gatti R.I.P.
Amen Micky wards best friend
Fighters to the end

Revisiting. Great tune

Yaaaaasss!!! One of the first DKM songs I ever heard...to this day it still pumps me up!!
Happy St.Pats💚🏒🥅
this song always makes me smile
This song got me so hyped I punched myself out
You will never make us Celts go into the night! We are the warriors! The kshatriya of the europeans!
When a man has to beat the shit out of someone, he has to beat the shit out of them, No if, ands, or buts about it!
Dude, you are THEE biggest try-hard ever. Only thing you beat is your meat to yo moms son.
This is a great song to listen to before playing rugby, gets you right in the mood. love it!
God, Mickey Ward is so deserving of being tributed with this song
I saw Dropkick twice, they were awesome both times.
Ward & Gatti brought out the best in each other
long live the Irish!
AMEN
I'll raise a glass to that!
as if we can be killed by conventional means...
Paul Phelan I am one of you. Long live the Irish.
Paul Phelan I'll say it again. Your right.
For my country for my town!
Ireland and Dublin

I always liked Mickey Ward! Hopefully, the movie "The Fighter" did him justice... can't wait to see it. Great song and video! Thanks for posting it!
"you make the most of the hand you're dealt, because a quitter never wins."
one of the best fight trilogies in the last 50 years of pugilism
Paciao/Barrea is a another 1
Hes done it again, hes done it again ❤🥊
He's got that dawg in him
My favorite Murphy's song!
Panther tattoo on my hand this days .....THe warrior code ..Thank you to the good people .That believe in me ..Even if you are older .....Boxing stuff .
Told my son about Mickey Ward and how gutty he was. How my son is. Not the biggest but all heart and guts. I played this for my boy every time he had a football game.
Has anyone noticed how sick the drums are in this song? I mean, they're not very dominant in this song, but around 2 minutes in they just kick ass.
No matter how many punches you receive and how humiliated you are, you always get up.
Best DKM song ever!!! And that is saying so much since they all kick ass!!!
Mickeys my second cousin through my dads family. I love Lowell and all its quirks. It certainly has some characters.
I'm going to use this as my entrance music to my first pro MMA fight.
how’d it go?
this whole album is amazing
What an anthem!!!! Unbelievable
Absolutely love it
I had never heard of Micky Ward until I saw the fighter. I went back and started watching his actual old fights. My God that guy was awesome. Ward Vs Gatti I was maybe the best fight I've ever seen.

Mickey stepped up to help gatti's family after his untimely death. That's what makes this vid so vital
