Who are some Retired Fighters who are HOF Bound?

[Guest]

You would really put a guy in the HOF who lost twice to Ivan Robinson?

If that's the criteria, let's put in Angel Manfredy... he was pretty good

I was thinking, Lloyd Honeyghan, Donald Curry, Nigel Benn, Chris Eubank, Ottke. Mike Tyson as well is a must.

[Don Corleone]

His fights were great and always exciting to watch, everytime he got into the ring you can tell he was gonna put a show so he deserves more resspect then people give him, there have been better fighters but their fights weren't that great compared to Gatti

Seeing as Manfredy beat Gatti and Robinson both, he should be in then.

That's where we disagree. IMO the HOF should be for great fighters, not guys who were in great fights. Danny "Little Red" Lopez qualifies on both counts yet he is snubbed every year. Try comparing his record to Gatti's.

[Don Corleone]

The reason I say Gatti is because he was just a great performer, and would you rather put someone who was boring and never put a show but had many wins or somenoe who always put on a show and for the fans and had a decent amount of wins? More people remember the person who always had a great heart and was always exciting to watch

Not quite that far back, lol, but I was going to great fights at the Olympic Auditorium in the 1970's.
