    Good to hear that Oscar De La Hoya and Felix Trinidad got their well desserved induction on their first year of eligibility.

        Yeah. He is so far above them

          So every pro boxer should get inducted then, in that case?

          "If Stallone's in, there's no problem with anyone getting in"

          Stallone isn't in the HOF for being a boxer he's in a different section that's specific to celebrities, writers etc.

          I don't understand how this eludes people. It's really not difficult to comprehend.

            P4P, Calzaghe was always better than those two superstars and I'm a fan of both.

                    All three should and deserve to get in the IBHOF. No doubt about it! Each has their own great accomplishment.

                      Olympic Gold Medal (I know it's not pros)

                      10 world titles in 6 weight classes

                      Defeated over 15 world champions

                      Ring Magazine champion

                      Was the pound for pound best in the world at one point


                      Ohh and since the boxing fans this day and age want to throw PPVs as greatness lol.....Oscar was also the PPV king at one point as well.

                      Am I saying he's better than Hearns? No but you guys need to get them off your pedestal. FYI Huge Hearns fan here too.
