    after finally llyod marshall and red lopez made it to the HOF, it is now time to look for the best fighter that is yet to be inducted in the HOF. To me, it's Chris Eubank

    consider only those are are eligible for induction and those that are not in the IBHOF list.

    Here is my Top 10 List:
    1. Chris Eubank
    2. Nigel Benn
    3. Naseem Hamed
    4. Tiger Jack Fox
    5. Young Jack Thompson
    6. Hilario Zapata
    7. Ernesto Marcel
    8. Michael Nunn
    9. Jiro Watanabe
    10. Myung Woo Yuh


    Next 20:
    Rosendo Alvarez
    Yoko Gushiken
    Eddie Booker
    Masao Obha
    Hiroyuki Ebihara
    Donald Curry
    Ceferino Garcia
    Steve Collins
    Davey Moore
    Horacio Accavallo
    Peter Kane
    Mike O'Dowd
    Santos Laciar
    Harry Jeffra
    Iran Barkley
    Pone Kingpetch
    Kid Azteca
    Kid Cocoa
    Ken Overlin
    Johnny Famechon
    Sammy Serrano
    Joey Archer
    Ray mancini
    Julian Jackson
    Sumbu Kalambay
    Gerald Mcclelan
    Meldrick taylor
    Lionel Rose
    Dave Sands
    Jimmy Carruthers
    Frankie Burns
    Memphis Pal Moore
    Luisito Espinosa
    Buddy Mcgirt




    I feel that the above top 20 fighters are more deserving that brian mitchell and barry mcguigan.

    Virgil Hill will be in there, but he has not been out of boxing very long. I am not sure if Donald Curry will make it in the Hall of Fame. Is he in there already? I really do not know. I think Donald should make it in. Very good welterweight. Davey Moore? The one who fought Duran no,since the featherweight is in the Hall of Fame I think. I saw that on the list. No way. Iran Barkley has a better chance of getting into the hall by being a 3 time champ, but not Davey Moore of the 1980s.

    Donald Curry?
    i feel oscar larios is more deserving in making it than curry.

    Davey moore of 60s, the one who lost to sugar ramos and died due to brain injuries amidst the kid paret tradedy.

    Virgil his was denied once to get inducted three years ago

    Do you homework Asero, Virgil Hill has been retired for less than 3 years you have to be retired for 5 to be considered.
    Oscar Larios has more longevity than Curry but Curry was better fighter in his prime Curry at one time was considered #2 PFP only behind A PRIme Hagler, some even rated him above Hagler. Larios never considered a pfp guy. Curry was also a 2 time champ.

    Virgil Hill will get in one day,probably not first ballot but he wont have to wait to long.
    FW Davey Moore is borderline, but might not get in.

    Ah but anarci your forgetting your Aserometry...Oscar Larios is a scalp on Manny Pacquiao's record, therefore his standing is much higher then usual to elevate Manny.

    Just like Sasukul is a top 5 flyweight alltime and David Diaz is the next coming of Lew Tendler....And Eder Jofre is overrated because then that makes Fighting Harada's resume look weaker and therefore Manny Pacquiao surpassed him as the greatest asian fighter when he beat Nedal Hussein.

    Simple Aserometry my friend.

    Yey but never #2 like Curry, and that era was stacked.

    Also Curry wasnt a fraud.. Just a short prime and drained against Honeyghan.

    I think Mijares was a good fighter although being ranked 5 to 7 was a little high.

    Larios was not a world class fighter when he fought larios. That has no weight to pacquiao's standing.

    Just look at his 122 career and i would show that he has a better resume that donald curry
