Well deserved. Besides scoring one of the biggest upsets of all time - a tremendous fighter at his height.

Muhammad Ali on Dempsey, Tunney, and Greb. 1969 Madrid newspaper ABC. "Dempsey, like Tunney, while champ, never faced a number 1 contender. For years, he ran from Harry Wills and would be scared to death whenever someone mentioned light heavyweight Harry Greb.”

I don't think Israel Vasquez should be voted into IBHOF, I feel the committee or whatever controls the HOF, should simply induct him & I think this approach should be used for fighters who have the merit but are in poor health instead of wasting time.

McCallum boxed like Hank Aaron played outfield. Willie Mays was flashier, but Aaron got the job done.

And it was just a slobber knocker of a fight. Just two young, tough, talented contenders battling it out.

40 yrs ago Oct 17: Iran Barkley outpoints James Kinchen over 10, 160lbs, Cobo Arena Detroit. Substituting for contender Robbie Sims, future 2-time champ “The Blade” uses 9th-round knockdown to upset future 3-time title challenger “The Heat” in brisk affair on Hearns-DeWitt card.

Respectfully, I can give you 10 guys on the ballot who were rarely on American tv in any context.

In reality, many guys on the ballot were not widely available to see in their day. Voters should do research. And many voters are actually younger than the actually fights/fights you are discussing. The conversations around this should be fair.
