    Drenlou is a joke, he almost never gets a fight right and when he does it's seemingly by accident.

    Gatti got in so he gets in. It's the hall of fame, not the hall of talent. Besides, he's a five time, two weight champ, with victories over 3 Ring top 10 p4pers: Lomachenko, Juanma Lopez, and Robert Guerrero. He's also a participant in one fight of the year bout and half a dozen contenders.

    Robert Guerrero was a no contest due to failed test. He gets no credit for that win OE

    Please, all of them are on something. He just got caught.

    And while we're talking about blood and guts warriors, I just watched Bobby Chacon vs Arturo Frias from 1985 and it is a WAAAARRRR!

    Gatti is the most overused and abused standard setter for the HOF in the history of boxing. If you're on the fence about someone getting in, and put them in by default just because Gatti is there, then no, they shouldn't be there. ****ing wack.

    His day after test was negative for Nandrolone. He should be given back that win.

    Just like modern day society, the "everybody gets a trophy for playing" crowd needs to fall back and stop blurring the lines between the truly distinguished and elite and the athletes people have a soft spot for. Just because guys got in who you think didn't deserve it - and there are some who shouldn't be in there but are - doesn't mean you lower the bar and drop the standard, it means the people making these decisions have to go back to the original concept and define the standard far better.

    Actually nandrolone is a naturally occurring hormone in the human body, usually produced by physically strenuous activities. Cut Siri some slack.

    Maybe we should remove Ray Robinson, Willie Pep, Archie Moore, Sam Langford, Herol Graham out of the Hall Of Fame too? After all.... many of them had more losses than Salido.
