    maybe they will only let one K in per year.
    You have to be retired for 3 years to be elected into the IBHOF, couldnt have let Wlad in earlier even for something unique as that.

      Since each elector gets up to 5 votes, and anyone who is named on over 80% of the ballots gets in, its feasible that 6 fighters could be elected. But that would be very unlikely. It would almost require the voters to conspire to balance out their ballots in an effort to ensure they elect the maximum, and a number of voters not to vote for someone they think should get in.

      In all likelihood 4-5 get in
      If James Toney does not get in on his first ballot that will be a got damn catastrophe. Maybe you kind of have to blame him for fighting on for so long after his prime, but **** that. Wladamir, or Cotto, or Ward will have to wait for another time. Sorry.

      James Toney needs to be inducted immediately.

      And I will be going to this event.

        Mayweather
        Klitschko
        Tony
        Eubank
        Froch

        Benn, Bradley, Hatton would have been my next possible votes.

            You would pick Froch or Eubank over Andre Ward?

            He was a different class of fighter to them and dominated his weight class including Froch and then moved up and beat the best available at the time too.

            At least Froch did fight all comers in his time, which you can’t say about Eubank

              I...don't support Cotto going in. Not this year.

              Floyd - absolutely.

              Toney - I say yes.

              Grabomir - I say yes, unfortunately, he deserves it.

              Ward? I don't know. Personally I don't think so.

              I would put Cotto in before I put Ward in.

                I cba to go over this. Ward had to cheat to win and has a pretty poor resume at 168.

                    Klitschko brothers are a no brainier. Especially the elder brother. The great Vitali Klitschko

                      Timothy Bradley may have been a solid fighter, but nowhere near Hall of Fame level...
