    You're right, it's not the correct answer - but at least it's a start, and a target for others to beat.

    Guess - Harold Johnson?

    If that’s way off, then clearly I didn’t post this, someone has obviously hijacked my user registration.

    Harold Johnson's dad wasn't a HOFer, which you of course know - so yes, someone is clearly messing with you!

    Hi Greg.
    Unless Grebs dad was a HOFer, you might be barking up the wrong tree ;)
    stay safe buddy.

    Maybe Young Bob Fitzsimmons (son of the famous one)? I checked that he fought 3 IBHOF's (Tiger Flowers, Jack Delaney and Young Stribling).

    Now we're getting somewhere, best answer so far... but we can go even higher than 3!
