Which all time great should not be there?

Ironic: People around here used to laugh and say I was crazy when I said Gatti would get into the HOF :hahahaha9: Nobody believed me when I said the HOF had nothing to do with greatness and everything to do with popularity and name recognition :chuckle9:

Once he suffered a tragic death I knew that it was a sure thing. I'm a little surprised that Vernon Forrest and Diego Corrales haven't ridden in on the same wave. They don't deserve it either, but both were better than Gatti.

Corrales did enough to get in legitimately, I think. Vernon should get in since he was also a good guy out the ring, but his resume lacks.

..........ridden in on the same wave"? You mean death? You little ****! Go find a gym and get in there and take a few in your guttless gut, little punk ass talking about the deaths of real men who aren't next to you as you talk that way! You lil ****! Theres some people here who have never been taught respect and simply talk out of their azz!
What expertize do you have to say who "deserves" it or not? Ray

I've seen most of these boxer's fights. That qualifies me as much as you. If you don't think a tragic early death promotes sympathy for the victim then you are even more stupid than I thought. There is nothing disrespectful about that.

Didn't Gatti, Forrest and Arguello all die within the same week also?

[Earl-Hickey]

Arturo Gatti, was in my opinion a great "fighter"

same year. i don't believe it was the same week.

Ingo probably shouldn't be in.

Okay. Ever see that story on all 3 guys on HBO Real Sports? If not, it's worth a look. I think I have it on DVD somewhere.

If that is the case than why are Eubank and Naz not in there? Naz was more famous internationally than Gatti. Eubank was one of Britain's biggest ever fighters.
