    Starling and LaPore aren't in the IBHOF? What! Both awesome fighters that are deserving of their place. If STALLONE gets a place why can't legit fighters get one?

    Yeah, I mean, they definitely shouldn't be voting in high skilled, no resume, no longevity guys like Too Sharp in before similar high skilled, no resume, no longevity guys like Watanabe from a decade before.

    Stallone was not inducted as a fighter, he was inducted as a non participant.

    this mere claim created n urge in me 2 watch it .
    when i did , it just did not seem like intentional and i doubt that it mattered because d 2 were just in d middle of n xchange .

    so did Starling immediately lose focus in d xchange just because of d bell , which i doubt they even heard ? possible , but i doubt it .

    I think that Molinares was deprived of d title and both should have been immediately rematched .

    edited , added and there4 fixt


    Roman - maybe
    Legra - no
