The hall of fame has received a number of objections regarding Alexis Arguello, managed by Grimm, being present within the HOF. This is due to the season AA took part in being abandoned after just 13 fight cards, please note that a normal season is usually 40 fight cards if the commissioner has the stamina. Can someone refresh my memory and remind me why the season was cut short? Was it the John Shep incident or something to do with TF's computer?
Grimm state AA's case if you wish. Arguello was the only unified champion of the lightweight season.
Should Arguello be in the HOF for his achievements in a short-lived season?
Don't let your opinion of Grimm have an effect on your vote, consider Arguello as a fighter only.
So the voting question is:
Should Alexis Arguello be kicked out of the Hall of Fame?
HOF VOTE: ALEXIS ARGUELLO
Re: HOF VOTE: ALEXIS ARGUELLO
As I recall he beat Pernell Whitaker on one occasion. Pernell beat him on another. I think he should be in. I do think that's when the History of this great institution was lost in the Great Digital Erasure Event of 09.
Re: HOF VOTE: ALEXIS ARGUELLO
Kick him out!!!
Re: HOF VOTE: ALEXIS ARGUELLO
out. the season was 13 fights long. nobody gets in the hof in 13 fights
Re: HOF VOTE: ALEXIS ARGUELLO
WAs not due to any of HIS doing though. Why punish him? ...never mind I think I know the answer...."Because we can". lol.
Re: HOF VOTE: ALEXIS ARGUELLO
nothing against grimm or arguello. i just think there wasnt enough time to show a hof season.
Re: HOF VOTE: ALEXIS ARGUELLO
Maybe we should have thought of that before we allowed it? I'm not for reversing a decision.

you've got a point. i was never for it but maybe we could bump it down to an honorable mention.BoxBuzz wrote:Maybe we should have thought of that before we allowed it? I'm not for reversing a decision.

I've got it! How about the ol' Asterisk? That always works....SAV wrote:you've got a point. i was never for it but maybe we could bump it down to an honorable mention.BoxBuzz wrote:Maybe we should have thought of that before we allowed it? I'm not for reversing a decision.
Re: HOF VOTE: ALEXIS ARGUELLO
That sounds fair enough to me.
Re: HOF VOTE: ALEXIS ARGUELLO
My vote is to leave him in. The HOF already notes that he took part in a very short season.
I'm happy with the idea of adding a good old asterix.

That season was stopped because of Shep. The previous season(s), which was a two-fer, was stopped when my laptop commited suicide.Neri wrote: Was it the John Shep incident or something to do with TF's computer?]
