    I added Junior Jones to the list. Is he HOF? He did beat Barrera twice with KO's, and fought but lost to Erik Morales.

    I didn't spend much time looking at the list, so I missed Mayorga, and as for Pavlik its just way too early to tell.

    I'm glad someone agrees that Mayorga is a HOF. He did after all beat Vernon Forrest twice at his prime (even though the second fight could have gone either way), he lost a controversial fight to Cory Spinks, and beat Fernando Vargas and Michel Piccirillo.

    I didn't agree that he was a HOF. I said I missed his name on the list otherwise I would have laughed at him too. He's not anywhere close to HOF status in my book.
