Mark "Too Sharp" Johnson elected to HOF

i really cant comprehend what those press people use as a criteria to vote for a place in the HOF... i mean being avoided is a criterion already? geez....

Oh and this is a nice acomplishment to go with being ranked P4P Johnson was the first African-American boxer to capture a World Flyweight Title

Does being avoided go into the process? I'm no expert and I didn't see most of his career. So I'm going to qoute his Wiki page If Johnson's resume was largely devoid of star names, it was because standout fighters of the day, such as Johnny Tapia, Danny Romero, Michael Carbajal and Ricardo Lopez are widely considered to have avoided him If true, does that factor into whether or not he should make the HOF?

aint that twat in your sig from Liverpool??the slag let froch put a nott'nam kit on the kid...smh....

I don't agree with it, at all. It's got to a stage when they're just going to put anyone in the HOF. I mean, Too Sharp? A HOF'er? If Too Sharp did enough to be a HOF'er then there's plenty others who do. I imagine the likes of Booker, Cocoa Kid, Kingpetch, Lytell, Tiger Jones and the long list of actual HOF calibur fighters will never be inducted while the likes of Too Sharp, Cotto and the rest of them will be. I believe Cocoa Kid got in this year also~

There's guys in the HOF that never even won a damn title.

Nothing wrong with Cotto being in the hall of fame buddy. Dude fought everyone, only lost to Pacquiao really, and from we saw on sat. still has something left in his tank. Hell be a shoe-in when he retires but i can see what your saying

does being in the hall of fame mean he'll actually have a chance at being famous now?

if Tszyu can make it, Hatton likely, why not 2 sharp It's got to that stage. Where we are saying "If so and so why not so an so?" Down the line even lesser deserving fighters are going to be inducted.

I don't agree. Yes, once upon a time he was a pound for pounder but HOF? Err...
