Although the most recent inductees are hard to argue against. I understand it tho as the more fighters they get attending the HOF weekends the more sales will increase.
I understand your philosophy behind the mythical fight predictions and how that wouldn't really play a role, but do you think that being inducted into the Nevada Boxing Hall of Fame would become equal in achievement to winning a professional world title (for a boxer who retired without ever holding a title)? Would such induction help with his legacy?

Thanks for taking the time to share your views! I just want to clarify and make sure that I holistically understand your viewpoint. Looking forward to reading more of your take!
