Potential IBHOF inductees

[Miburo]

Please do not use McGuigan, who should never have even garnered consideration, as a standard for who is worthy...

That should not be how it works though. Just because he's in doesn't mean we should let those as good and better in. We'd be letting in nearly every half decent champ from every single era otherwise.

He is not worthy, and it should stop there.

Agreed, otherwise they'll be letting in mediocrity and lessening the prestige.

Ortega is in the World Hall of Fame.

I thought he was in the IBHOF but it seems he's not.

You did a whole thread on Cocoa and didn't even mention him....

LONG overdue. He'll get it eventually. Needs the right year, one sort of like this one where the first year guys are weaker. Yuh is in because of it in part. Chang got his. Gushiken and Zapata are the remaining 108 guys who I think are must.

if people like mark johnson are getting in then might as well put ioka hiroki in ther because he was the only man ever to legitimately beat Myung-Woo Yuh and the only man to beat him actually and for being the 1st wbc minimum weight champion. adn why not shozo saijio and royal kobayashi and shirai yoshio as well for being japan's first world champion. you see how many other people should be getting in instead of these other undeserving american's who literally have accomplished nothing.

I remember seeing Sho Saijio fight in LA. He was a decent fighter, but clearly not on the same level as Mark Johnson.
