Who Beat The Most Hall of Famers And Isn't In The Hall of Fame?

[keithmoonhangover]

Must be guys who are already eligible for the hall.

I'll start us off with Kid Tunero, who beat Ezzard Charles and Holman Williams.

Any advance on two? Can I get a three?

[franciscojavier]

Chris Byrd beat two(Vitali and Holyfield) and so did Greg Haugen(Camacho and Mancini), if at some point in the future Stevie Johnston Joel Casamayor and Diego Corrales get inducted then José Luis Castillo would have wins over three(but by that point Castillo would almost definitely be inducted anyway).

[keithmoonhangover]

Frankie Randall is another two - Chavez and Rosario.

[keithmoonhangover]

Another two. Uriah Grant beat Saad and Hearns.

[goose 5]

Izzy Janazzo beat Holman Williams and Cocoa Kid.

[goose 5]

Jimmy Leto beat at least three: Burley, Zivic and Holman Williams.

[goose 5]

Leto didn't beat Holman Williams-it was Chalky Wright he beat.

[Bladder]

A quick look through Charley White's record shows at least five.

[chrisjs1985]

Lou Salica beat Manuel Ortiz, Sixto Escobar, Midget Wolgast (three) and isn't in.

How about Del Flanagan?

[elmersalsa]

Lew Feldman beat 5 hall of fame boxers. His hall of fame entry is still long overdue.

[Ambling Alp II]

Here is one that is hard to top:
Johnny Risko had 7 - Loughran, Walker, Baer, Sharkey, Delaney, Slattery, and Godfrey.

[Esquire]

Junior Jones won 3 fights against hall of famers and isn't in the hall himself. He beat Marco Antonio Barerra twice and Orlando Canizales once.

[elmersalsa]

Del Flanagan beat 4 hall of famers:
Kid Gavilan
Sandy Saddler
Willie Pastrano
Beau Jack

[elmersalsa]

I don't know why these two guys are not in the hall of fame.

Rodolfo "Baby" Casanova beat:
WDQ5 Henry Armstrong
W10 Midget Wolgast
W12 Baby Arizmendi
W10 Newsboy Brown
W10 Freddie Miller

And Lew Feldman beat:
Chalky Wright (twice)
Lew Jenkins
Petey Sarron
Battling Battalino
Midget Wolgast

[Caractacus]

How many Hall of Famers did Gerry Cooney beat ?

[Seamus]

Jimmy Leto beat 6 HOF'ers and isn't in.

[Caractacus]

Are you talking about THE Hall of Fame in Syracuse New York ?

[Caractacus]

Joey Archer is in the World Boxing Hall of Fame,
but not in the
International Boxing Hall of Fame

[Ambling Alp II]

Only the IBHOF counts.

[Perseus]

THE Hall of Fame is in Canastota, New York not Syracuse.

[Caractacus]

what about Middleweight Champion Paul Pender ?
he defeated SRR (twice),Carmen Basilio and Terry Downs (twice)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Pender

[Caractacus]

Ralph "Tiger" Jones.
he was a staple on live TV boxing back in the 1950's.
at one time or another he had defeated

Sugar Ray Robinson
Kid Gavilan
Joey Giardello
Johnny Bratton

Some fighters of interest -

Muangchai Kittikassem vs Sot Chitalada 1 and 2 & the classic come from behind KO of Jung Woo Chang (provided Chitalada is ever inducted)

Khaokor Galaxy v Wilfredo Vazquez and Sung Kil Moon (provided Vazquez, a three weight champ with a win over Orlando Canizales among other triumphs - and Moon - regarded as a little titan in his day - ever get in).

Jose Luis Ramirez - the robbery of the year "win" over Pernell Whitaker and fight of the year revenge KO of Edwin Rosario.

as already mentioned, Frankie Randall's great first fight with Chavez and great second fight and revenge win over Rosario.

Srisaket Sor Rungvisai, controversial fight of the year win over Roman Gonzalez, emphatic rematch KO win and points win over another great, Juan Francisco Estrada. 3 of the best away from home wins by a Thai, prior to a string of disappointing performances. Gonzalez and Estrada are heading towards the IBHOF without a doubt, having participated with distinction is a classic era of super flyweight championship fights.

sor had a great run, unfortunetly he's never been in the same form again and had personal issues, but winning as underdog 3 fights in a row vs p4p level opposition is some hot sheeyat
