Fighters who wont get into the hall of fame, but will always be remembered

the Ayala brothers and for sure Johnny Tapia, the craziest fighter I ever saw

 

Good Call :good

 

Cotto

 

I would be shocked if he didn't make it in. Championship record aside, if you had to name 20 of the most exciting fights that have ever taken place in a ring Gatti would probably appear in more of them than anyone else.

 

Tony Galento

 

Saoul Mamby is a close call, but he'll never get all the votes.....:|

Leon Stinks is actually infamous, but the IBHOF will never let his ass in...:-(

Jerry Quarry?:think

Vinny Pazienza?:verysad

Frank Bruno?:verysad

MR.BILL:hat

 

Jose Luis Castillo and Diego Corrales

 

Chris Arreola

 

Mark Breland

 

Zab Judah, though not for the reasons he would like.

The first three words of the first post were "what active fighters." And then post after post of retired or dead guys.

Only on ESBatsch

 

Vitali klitchko currently, i doubt he will get in too many injuries, plus he's overshadowed by his kid brother had a better career :huh but will always be remembered by his classic bout with lewis....

Past- Billy Conn, will always be remembered by the fight he was winning against the great Louis but blew it...

The boxing HOF is too damn easy to get into, it should be more like other sports where only the best of the best get in...

 

I actually think Tapia is pretty close to a lock to get in the Hall.

A few others not yet mentioned:
James Butler
Tony Galento
Ike Ibeabuchi
Leon Spinks
Chico Corrales
Jorge Paez

Mickey Ward might be the best example of recent days. Emmanuel Augustus is obviously also a good one.

Edit: didn't notice the OP said active fighters. In that case, it's just hard to tell. Guys early in their careers still have a shot, I guess.

 

Rustico Torrecampo

As an answer to a trivia question regarding Manny Pacquiao's career.

 

Touch Of sleep that nickname sticks.
