Will Mickey Ward end up in the Hall of Fame?

I am totally against the IBHOF lowering it's standards but it has already. Ingemar Johansson already got in because he was a well known heavyweight with a big punch. He does not deserve to be there.

I think Gatti and Ward will both be there someday. Maybe even a guy like David Tua. Is Cooney there yet?

Johannson at least won the HW title, and also beat a top contender of his day in Machen.

While Micky Ward should not be inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame, he does currently have a presence there, as he deserves to be remembered despite his not being in the highest echelon of fighters.

"Great white dope ends up in HoF" I think it will work

Who's going to remember him if he doesnt get in the hall of fame?

He'll be remember for the Gatti trilogy. the trilogy is overrated, but the first fight was a classic.

Some non-HOF fighters are remembered.

God, I hope not.

I beleave gatti deserves it because the boxing hall of fame isnt for boxers with amazing technical skills. Its just for famous boxers and you dont get much more famous these days than arteuro gati...I know i spelled it wrong

No..................................

[enadeus]

I'm not sure if he will...but anyone who puts it all in the line with so much heart, and a true warrior in the sport, really deserves to be in it.
