Can more than 3 go into the IBHOF now?

Post by ShovelPunch »

I know there was a time when they only allowed 3 members a year in?

Has that changed?

In the "modern" category each member of the voting panal can pick 5 names. The 3 with the most votes get in.

However, as of April 2019, a new rule states, that in addition to the top 3, a boxer who receives at least 80% of the total votes will also get inducted. So in theory, 5 men can get in the same year - though I don't believe more than 3 have so far been inducted the same year.

Has anyone heard if it’s worth going for the weekend?

Of course it’s worth visiting but I’m talking for the induction.
