    There was a head clash for sure but ward was p4p number 1 for headbutting and clotteys looked somewhat unintentional as he actually threw a punch before their heads collided, ward literally just jumped forward head first in a non boxing manner. Double standards or maybe clottey was secret p4p 1?

    Also gatti? Cant be serious. He wasn't a ww.
    What side of the argument were you even taking?

    I was pointing out that Kambosos was better and now you're attacking Baldomir's resume for some reason?

        No doubt about that.

        He was the lineal, TBRB, Ring, WBA, IBF, and WBO lightweight champion of the world.

        That is an insane accomplishment no matter how quickly the wheels fell off.

          He's below ricky hatton ( skillwise IMO) but he's better than Gatti. Was his win over Teo bigger then Hattons win over Tyszu? Debatable.... I think Ray Manicini was a better. Ray was only a one time lightweight champion but George was unified and lineal. So yea he gets in, Everyone gets in.

            Arturo Gatti is in the HOF - they let anyone in.

                    Wait a sec. I just found out Vernon Forrest isnt in the hall of fame which is wild. Why is Gatti in over Forrest but now George Kambosos Jr would get in ?? Hmmmmmmm.

                      Because half the judges are on the take
                      It comes down to getting votes and who’s your backing
                      Gatti , may have not been the superstar and the most victorious but he was must see tv for a few years and lit up AC like no other
                      The Boardwalk Hall will always be Gatti’s home away from home
                      Just to be clear , I think Forrest is deserving of HoF
