    I find that rodent, Jose Sulaiman is in there after all the devious and corrupt things he's done to boxing a bit of disgrace. I wouldnt mind seeing if someone could detail all the shitty manouvers he's pulled (if we had the space of course)

    Whilst Don King is also a bit of a scumbag, he has managed to make some tremendous cards.


    anyone else?

    Rocky Marciano should be booted out of the hall of fame. Thats pretty easy.

    thus the reason i used the word "person" in my title as i was really trying to angle it towards somebody like Sulaiman, who seems to only harm the sport

    I would have booted Sulaiman out. This guy did more HARM than good for the sport. The bribe charge, and his alpha title, and who pays more to be the "Champ". That ant right. Wonder if he bribe some one to get in the hall?

    me too. remember a couple of years ago when they (WBC) gave a fighter in the HOF an honorary WBC belt (was it Griffith or Benitez????) and the slimeball himself was there to present it, i can remember reading it in "the ring" can anyone refresh my memory

    Then they don't know what in hell they're talking about. 49 straight wins, no losses, against fighters of the calibre of Louis, Walcott, Charles, and Moore? If that's not HOF material I don't know what it.
