[Anthony342]

The 2019 International Boxing Hall of Fame Inductees were announced this week. Here's the list from their website. What do you guys think? Agree or disagree? And didn't you guys say there are a lot of people that are long overdue for induction? Who would those guys be?

[New England]

not a particularly strong class, but they let three boxers in every year without exception and by default from what i can see.

There is a reason why fans carry the torch when it comes to determining who is elite, an ATG, etc... Same reason why we need things like a linneal when it is appropriate,etc. the Hall of Fame does not mean much.

[BattlingNelson]

Weak class. Possibly the weakest ever.

[OctoberRed]

Meh. They are running out of names.

[ShoulderRoll]

Once they let Arturo Gatti into the Hall the standards for enshrinement were severely damaged forever.

[Anthony342]

Really? But you guys just did a thread praising the abilities of Curry.

[TBear]

Curry is not a strong choice but I would question Buddy McGirt even more.

Yeah. Curry was good, but his stay at the top was short. McGirt? I mean wtf did he do to deserve entry?

Yeah, I don't get it either!
