Will Gatti make it into the HOF?

Gatti was a warrior but he lost his two biggest fights very badly so he doesnt get in.

 

If McGuigan is in, sure.

 

We might as well let everyone in then.

 

McGuigan shouldnt be in either, neither of them should, we have to stop letting dross in at some point otherwise it'll just get more and more diluted. No offense to Gatti, hes not dross but hes just not top class.

 

I Hope He makes it ,RIP Arturo

 

RIP Arturo, but noway.

 

If heart helps him overcome world class opponents then yes definitely but Gatti was beaten badly by DLH and Mayweather despite his heart which is why I dont think hes quite there. Alot of fighters have great heart but never achieve anything significant, they will always be remembered by the people who watched them so Gatti doesnt need the hall of fame.

 

I don't think talent should be the only criteria. In fact, considering it's a "Hall of Fame" not "Hall of Achievements" should it matter at all?

The people who belong there, are those who made a contribution to the sport and McGuigan and Gatti certainly did. Even though they weren't the best fighters, they deserve recognition for helping the sport in the way that they did.

 

Gatti is a legend and should be treated with respect with his fantastic ring wars.

 

Then I refer you to my other post where I say we may as well let everyone in. It all depends on your personal stance on where we should draw the line, personally I feel it should be a lot higher but I understand your point of view.
