Re: IBHOF- Class of 2017
Holyfield and Barrera are no brainers. Johnny Tapia seems kinda on the fence, but he's certainly HOF worthy just not sure if he was a 1st ballot HOF kinda fighter. Eddie Booker's induction is long overdue. Jimmy Lennon Sr. was before my time, but I'm sure he deserves his induction. Steve Farhood and Tompkins are good broadcasters to me. Farhood's scores are getting a bit screwy lately, but he's a true Boxing fan and I enjoy seeing him on broadcasts.
Jerry Roth is probably the choice that would raise a few eyebrows amongst fans.

Absolutely love Tompkins. Great selection.
MAB is one of my all time favorites. A great fighter. Maybe I can get up there for the induction.
