But I know why you said what you said, one sole reason. You know why. It's alright though.

His DLH loss was at 135lbs, the only time he fought above 130. He went back to 130 and became 130 champ. He is one of Boxingscenes top 20 (#8 rank) greatest Super Featherweights of all time

Originally posted by crold1 View PostHe's got a case but I wouldn't have voted for McGuigan and did NOT vote for Gatti. We can only vote for five and not sure he's one of the five best on the ballot this year. As to those ratings, he would probably still rate high. Working on redoing all the Jr. classes. I used a formula for those that had varied results.

Greatness in a class counts for a lot...in certain classes...and with TV in certain countries (just an opine on voting...no quantitative). Mark Johnson went in first ballot. Pone Kingpetch still isn't in and only one beat bad ass HOFers for titles (note: not Too Sharp). Took the ballot's realigning what is considered modern last year for Masao Ohba and Yoko Gushiken to finally get decades overdue calls to the Hall.Last edited by crold1; 10-05-2015, 10:01 PM.
