    So McGuigan is definitely ineligible. Fitz? Honeyghan? What do we think? Honestly I cant see a problem with them.

    TBH I meant that Barry doesn't deserve to be inducted as a 'founder member'. He was a good fighter but he's one of the second tier of British world champs IMHO.

    McGuigan was an average champ and his 'punditry' relegates him further.

    I agree, if only a few are gonna be originally inducted its gonna be hard to decide who to leave out.

    As much as I hate the chubby ******* Hatton is probably also in the same company as Moran and Minter.

    So what are we doing here, just basically devising a P4P list and putting the top 20 in first and continuing on in that order?

    I thought this 'Hall of Fame' could be used to induct maybe not just the greatest British fighters of all time, but those that we feel deserve to be there based on different aspects i.e Carl Thompson for being a warrior, Michael Watson for being an inspiration etc.
