Would you vote Hamed and Lewis into the Hall of Fame?

[Dan...]

Lennox for sure, Hamed is borderline for mine, but considering who else seems to get in yeah, probably.

[BROOKLYN CESAR]

Lewis gets in easy but i dont think Hamed did enough!!!

[Thread Stealer]

Hmmm, yes, like many here I would 'definitely' vote Lewis in, but Hamed not so much. He had a good run, but when he came up against the only prime, current, good champ he fought he lost horribly and quit boxing altogether. When you have other guys in there like Yuh, Chang, Marcel, Curry, ... hmm, can't remember who else in nominated, but there are many guys that have had better runs.

Ernesto Marcel was a great featherweight champ who fought everyone from Duran to Arguello. Admittedly he was knocked out by Duran, but, that was his only ever bad (KO) loss (one of his few losses altogether) and he retired as the featherweight champ with a massive victory over a prime Arguello and very nearly knocked him out. One of only two people to beat a prime Arguello (not counting Pryor as having fought a prime Arguello). It was a great fight.

Yuh and Chang had very long title runs, but I personally don't really think they fought that good fighters for the majority of their title matches. Still, they were very good. Curry of course was a brilliant fighter in the WW, LMW and MW divisions. There are many great fighters in there though. Lewis is 'definitely' in.

These guys you're naming aren't in Canastota.

The two most inexplicable omissions from Canastota are Lloyd Marshall (who beat at least a half-dozen HOFers) and Eddie Booker....I wouldn't mind seeing guys like Julian Jackson, Marlon Starling, Donald Curry, Brian Mitchell, and Esteban Dejesus in there.

There's a lot of talk of the more current fighters (Gatti and Hatton for example) and debate on if they should get in, but these guys should all get in before those 2 do.

Both deserve the NOD...Hamed has horrible character though

[KILLA RIGHT]

HA someone wouldn't vote for ll...He's one of the greatest heavys ever

[Jose Rizal]

I don't think either is a **** but both of them deserve their place in Canastota. Lewis is in a higher rung though.

[Mayfeather]

Both should be in there no doubts

[Chr0nic]

lennox, alright, but he is suspect as he was more into the money than anything else, hamed **** no i would'nt

[hammerhiem]

Having seen the list and read the report on each's achivements I can see why you would only vote Lennox this Year.

Hamed will get in at some point.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Both deserve it.

Hamed was the first guy in decades to unify the featherweight division beating all 4 alphabet champions. Maybe the division wasnt the strongest but how strong were the heavyweights? His only loss was to an ATG when he was clearly unmotivated. I think the mark he left in terms of bringing excitement and charisma to the "little guy" division should also not be overlooked. I'll always remember when he owned New York against Kevin Kelly.

Lennox isnt even an argument.
