    burner's user title makes it all more hilarious.
    I don't understand his logic... Curry not in, like you said Lopez barely gets in, but yet Gatti and Corrales are locks and his explanation is "that is how the hall works"

    Castillo gets in but Curry is not?

      This is a huge fight. Legacy defining for both.
      So What? There are countless times were there were HOF fighters in the same division and still didn't fight. You really must not know much about boxing leading up until the 2000's...(no disrespect)

      I'm just saying that there are dozens of situation were we had guys who were clearly the best, fight made the most sense, fight could have made the most money....but still didn't happen. That is just how boxing is. If Floyd and Pac don't fight...it's no more disappointed to me than it was back in the day when all those other fights fell through. I guess you can say Im use to it...seeing how I have been through this circus many times before.

        exactly. not a big fan of hamed, but the fact that far more talented fighters with much better resumes than gatti are not in or are barely getting in says a lot about someone like castillo's chances. gatti will probably get in but shouldnt, corrales same thing, but castillo will not get in. All 3 are not really true, legit hall of famers.

            Why are you guys getting mad at me. I didnt keep Curry, Lopez and Hamed out. The voters did. Like I said we will see when they are eligible for the Hall.

              Not my opinion, not yourr opinion but the CONSENSUS opinion among Casual fans and a few historians as well

              If Floyd beats the Pacman, he's a Top 20 ATG IMHO

              Pacquiao is a beast
              Where do you rank Floyd now?

              Where do you rank Pac now? Fuck where everybody else ranks him, where do you rank him?

              What chances do you give Pac in beating Floyd?

              How good do you think Pac is?

                Well lets just pray us boxing fans get treated to such a big fight. Right?

                    We just giving examples of very good fighters who are not in, of fighters who barely got in, and asked if they are not locked then how the hell can YOU say Gatti, Corrales, and Castillo are locks? I mean what logic are you using for that statement?
