Is this an official vote? If not, do a list.Sportofkings wrote:Michael Carbajal should have been put in long ago.Ambling Alp wrote:Thanks for catching that I will edit that. I just copied and pasted from previous elections.
Just to further clarify a couple of things about eligibility:
1. Larry holmes has last fight was in July of 2002. However we have been allowing fighters eligible in this situation. We aren't going by the month. As long as someone didn't fight in 2003 or later, he is eligible this time.
The reason this was changed is becasue we of the way we do the 2nd election of the year in November. In that election, only fighters who got two or more votes (but not enough votes to be elected) in the May election are eligible. Obviously a fighter likes holmes would not be eligible at all this year since he would have no votes if we didn't make an allownace.
2. We have been allowing votes Nelson and Fenech. Ignoring their comeback fight which was several years after they retired the first time.

Re: Boxrec Hall of Fame Ballot (May 2012)
Max Schmeling has more votes than Larry Holmes ? Crazy.
Re: Boxrec Hall of Fame Ballot (May 2012)
Holmes is a jerk....I almost held my vote....but I'll add it....he deserves it.
Re: Boxrec Hall of Fame Ballot (May 2012)
Larry's mellowed alot in his retirement. Last few interviews I've seen, he actually seems likeable.

I've always liked him, since the first time I saw him fight against Roy Williams when I was a little kid.
