      Congratulations to the one and only Motor City Cobra, The Original Detroit Kronk Hit Man. Top 5 All-Time @ Welterweight and that includes a lot of dudes. A dude who lived to crack jaws, and dislocate eye sockets. Rather stretch a dude out @ any weight, before he let a fight go to the cards, or die trying.

      Much respect to Mike Spinks and Mike Carbajal as well.

        This is the Nevada "other" HOF which has only been open a few years. It looks like they're taking 5-6 a year so it's going to be a while before they get to everyone. In New York Hearns was selected in 2011, his first year of eligibility.
