Light-middleweight Elisha Obed, holds two world records as the first world champion from the Ba***** and 57 KO's on his resume which is more than any other champ at 154..

Other's who are well worth a mention:

David Kotey ( FW champ,Ghana)
Dado Marino (FLW champ, Hawaii)
Hogan Kid Bassey (FW champ, Nigeria)
Vic Toweel (BW champ, Sth Africa)
Charles LeDoux (BW champ, France)

Hmm, I don't know about some of them. They were very good, but not really solid HOF material.

Vic Toweel when he faced the best fighter he fought got knocked out in the first round and then stopped in the rematch easily too, though that guy was a very good fighter and massively underrated, but his short career hindered him from true recognition as the brilliant boxer he was.

Sammy Serrano is a very overlooked champion and should also be a definite HOF. One loss in between 17 or more title defenses at 130 in a fight in which he got knocked out while winning every round, which he won back in a rematch and fought all the very best of his time and his time was a damn good one. He has wins such as Ben Villaflor, Leonel Hernandez, Nkosana Mgxaji, Victor Federico Echegaray and many other solid wins over good opposition before finally losing his title to a young, undefeated Roger Maywether and retiring thereafter.

Marcel should be a definite though soon, with just a few of his wins being over great champions like Alexis Arguello, Antonio Gomez x 2, Alfredo Mercano x2, Sammy Serrano, Bernardo Caraballo, Jose Smecca, Ramiro Bolanos, along with being horribly robbed against two other great fighters in their hometowns when he was only given a draw against Kuniaki Shibata in Japan for the FW title and a terrible SD loss against Leonel Hernandez in Venezuela.

He's just coming into eligibility and most expect an easy first time nod.

Yes, he will be a first ballot inductee as will Tommy hearns once they become eligible.

I believe Chavez, Tszyu and Tyson are all up this year and will probably all go in first ballot. A case can be made against Tszyu going in over some already on the ballot, but Chavez and Tyson are in unless a lot of drugs are going around.

Great list I would also add Tony DeMarco though
