    Pretty much. People forget that the HOF is different than being an ATG. The boxing HOF puts in pretty much every significant titleholder.

    - Especially Castillo and Corrales (RIP) - because these guys were in their prime years and at their most dangerous.

    - But Mayweather beat them convincingly - well in the Castillo II fight and Corrales undoubtedly got walloped.

    If Pac wins impressively against Margarito and the fight is made between him and Floyd, Manny will be the favorite this time. The line was moving as Manny was getting heavy action and before it went off the board he was only +125. Since then Manny's popularity has increased and Floyd's decreased. Also Mosley looking poor against Mora and another Manny performance the linemakers will have to make Manny the slight favorite.

    Floyd Patterson fought several HOFers, including Sonny Liston twice, Archie Moore once, Ali twice...Here's a highlight of Floyd knockouts. Gee, I'm glad we have a good non-Pacweather thread for actual boxing fans for a change.

    Floyd doesn't fight them until after they're actually in the hall of fame.

    This is less like counting chickens before they hatch than it is like counting chickens after the freshly laid eggs have been stepped on and dogs have eaten them and shat them out.

    It took me a while to warm up to Patterson, and Torres, thinking they'd be lower level versions of Tyson. I was wrong.
