An excellent fighter, but not HoF worthy for me.

For exactly the same reason that I gave Joe Calzaghe, I can't vote Gomez in;

With that said, we are looking at RJJ & Evander as the top 2 candidates...
NO from me.

I'll say no due to lack of record.

From what I've gathered from his fights with guys whose records are there he has had a good season. Saying that, really the only difference between his season and Ward's is that JCG was luckier with the judges and didn't fight Holyfield, Calzaghe and RJJ as many times. So it was a good season, but not a HOF season AFAIC.

There were 10 Managers last season.

6 of us have now voted NO - so even if the rest vote otherwise, the majority rules - so Mr Gomez will not be entering The Hall on this occasion.
