    A H.O.F Idea!!!

    This thread was Inspired by the question of Mickey Ward and his Potential induction into Canastota HOF..

    I do not think he should be inducted.. BUT there is a way that Guys like Ward can get into the Hall.. without putting them beside the ATGs and thus devaluing the ATGs a little..

    And that is to Induct FIGHTS themselves into the hall..

    You don't really want to say Castillio or Coralles is really worthy.. but their 1st fight is the stuff of legends.. SO a section dedicated to the great Fights.. regardless of who fought them.. would be a way for some fighter to get their names in there without actually being inducted.. which would still be an honour for sure..

    What do you think?

      I don't think so. The boxing HOF should only serve one purpose.

      perhaps they could create some other kind of establishment to showcase great fights, but it shouldn't be Canastota

          I dig it.

          They really should do that.

          Good ****, Welt.

            I personaly think that that purpose should be to showcase the very best from boxing whether it be fighters or fights. Just my opinion of course.

              A good start would be to induct the FOTY and retroactively as well .. So you would already have a full Gallery.. then Perhaps hold votes to include others ??

                  cause you can have two non hall of fame fighters...but they could have a hall of fame fight

                    I like that idea. Guys like Gatti, Ward, Corrales, and others deserve to be recognized some how.
