    Not a snowball's chance in hell. 'enry was a great British boxer, but he never held any of the accolades that most of the fighters in the hall...like a world title.

    Maybe if there's a British Boxing Hall of Fame, he should be enshrined. Or if you're really dead set on seeing this guy receive some credit you should push for him to get "special recognition" which George "Scrap Iron" Johnson recieved.

    No, I don't think so.

    If he hadn't stuck Ali on his arse and bleated for 30 years about how he was ripped off something rotten...... all he would be remembered as is a decent European level fighter.

    Something like Jamie Moore is today.

    I have him ranked in the thirties of British ATG boxers so obviously not.
