    Dariusz is certainly HOF - material. In his prime, he was a beast, unified the LHW division, clearly beat Griffin and Thadzi who both beat Toney, dominated Hill, knocked out Rocchigiani who had never been knocked down before.

    Benn should be inspite of his losses. 100% courage. He went over the pond, never lost to an american fighter, and they werent bums either

    all have a claim but i like to say that the hall of fame is about the boxers not the records. it's about what they did in culture and for there sport. so to all those poeple saying barry mac shouldnt be in the hall got to remember he united a country together which is more than say most of the other hof.
