    popularity is a major criteria in the selection of HOF. that's the same reason why i think vargas and gatti may make it...

    If it was up to me, I'd say none of them. A few probably will get in, but I think the standard is too low. There are only about 15 fighters from the past 15 years I would induct, and none of these guys would make the cut.

    None of them really have HoF resumes but the well liked guys like Castillo and Corrales will probably get in.

    I agree with Dinamita for the most part. I think the standards for the Bhof are a bit low at least in comparison to other sports. Personally I probably wouldn't vote for any of them but I think quite a few will get in.
