mate, people who molest children should be hung

should be castrated then repeatedly arse rapped by gorillas.

Missy probably regards rape as heinous a crime as child molestation but I highly doubt most, especially males on here (as the first couple of replies show), do.

If Tyson was convicted of molesting a child then his entry to the HOF wouldn't even be considered, however if there was just suspicion he was a child abuser he would probably be looked at far more sympathetically, like Michael Jackson, so would definitely be considered for the HOF.

Either way, rapist or peado, it doesn't take away from his boxing prowess.

i loved tyson, he was so good for the sport and an animal in the ring, a phenonomen

he's done some bad things

a maniac is a maniac and just because he is a maniac it doesnt make him a rapest or a child molester

ok he was convicted of rape, i for one tho hope it was his position and his personality that worked against him, im probably daft thinking that

i just hope one day we have another tyson or ali in the HWs, i cant see it tho

Oh man a nonse?!

That would be as fucked up as it could possibly be! I mean, I would like to think that the promoters would refuse to work with him and that if they didn't, then maybe the Arenas would ban him from their premisses! And if THEY didn't then the T.V companies would be under enough pressure to ban him.

But if they ALL didn't.... If they ALLOWED a convicted kiddie fiddler to ply his trade... You know he'd get inducted. You just know it.

Is it right? No, not really but then a man's measure is undeniable. If he has been allowed to become it, he is it.

Not sure this should hang on the front board?
Leave it up to Saddo in the morning,he can shove it back there if its suitable.

Well the Hall of the Fame should always be about his in the ring achievements in my book. It would be hard to vote for him if he had such a conviction hanging over him, but in a way, if that sort of conviction should stop you from voting for him, then so should rape.

There shouldn't be a gap of acceptance between the two offences.
