  • Can someone please explain why Corrales isnt in the IBHOF yet Gatti and Mancini is?

    They were fun to watch, had good skills but lost all their big fights


    Corrales was actually the lineal champion at 135 and won the ibf and wbo at 130, fought in one of the greatest championship fights ever, had better wins than they had...higher ko ratio....more champions defeated.....won more big fights


    Damn.....Corrales deserves to be in.

    Corrales, Casamayor, Freitas, Mayweather, and JLC was a golden age at 130-135 and Corrales fought them all.

          Corrales was never forgiven by the boxing world for excessive spitting of his gum shield. HOF doesn't accept cheats.

            im sure there's **** loads of "politicing" during the selection process. Same with the NFL hof. How in the hell TO didn't get in 1st ballot is beyond my comprehension.

              He should get in for the Castillo fight alone really.

              But yeah I think he deserves it he had a good career.

                  I think the IBHOF gots too low a bar to start with, but yea its hard to argue Diego shouldn't be in if Gatti & Mancini are in. I suspect Diego's less than stellar history could have something to do with it.

                    Gatti, Mancini & McGuigan are exceptions. People always point to them as if that's the norm. But it isn't. They're at the low end of the curve.
