Lennox Lewis gets into the Hall. So does Merchant.

Yeh,well deserved!!!!!!!Well done Lewis,you are truly a legend!!

Agreed...Lennox is a legend...a top 3 maybe top 3 HW of AT.....He deserevs to be there....

Merchant say what you want about him but he has been a solid for many many years...I am sure a lot of you do not remember him from his days at The Philadelphia Daily News and The New York Post...But he was top notch then as well...

Merchant calls it as he sees it even if he is wrong he is honest....

Have to respect him for that.....

Yes, maybe so, but when he was a reporter, he once wrote some of the crulest things I have ever seen written. For example, re Sonny Liston returning to Philadelphia as a champ and nobody meeting him at the airport. Merchant said something to the effect: "What did he expect? A ticker tape parade. The only thing they could have used as confetti was the paper from his rap sheet." Nice guy--all 140 punds of him.

May be so but again...You don't have have to like him but respect him for his honesty...In this sport there are not too many guys who say it how they see it..

Point taken on honesty, but---AND I just typed a long reply and somehow lost it so I'll do it later.
