you mut be mad. all exept VARGAS and AUSTIN. he is a great boxer but how does steroids, robbing winky wright and getting smashed by mayorga earn you a hall of fame spot? and austin was ****.
By the standards of the HOF, yes. ****, Rocky Graziano and Primo Carnera are in the hall so there's no reason why these guys shouldn't be. As far as do they deserve to be imortalized in the Hall-of-Fame IMO, the simple answer is no. Not one of them, not while guys like Lloyd Marshall, Cocoa Kid, Eddie Booker, Esteban Dejesus, and many others are not in. None of these guys deserve that honor.
BTW, he doesn't deserve to be in the HOF, but Vargas beat Wright, no controversy, it was a legit win in a close and competitive fight, but one Vargas certainly deserved.
