Given that Fernandez would have been part of the “Parade of Champions,” I probably would have asked a fellow scribe to take his place at the Summit, and once the 2:30 p.m. ceremony began, the happiness I would have felt because of the associations I described above would have been hard for me to contain. He has been an elector for the International Boxing Hall of Fame since 2001 and is also a writer, researcher and punch-counter for CompuBox, Inc. I have long and proudly declared that West Virginia is the only U.S. state to claim a woman as its greatest boxer, and now the legacy of “The Coal Miner’s Daughter” will be immortalized in Canastota. During these twin drives, I would have paid silent tribute to those honorees who were unable to celebrate their day in the Canastota sun in person – Goossen, Pioneer Paddy Ryan and “Early Era” Old-Timer Frank Erne. In an email given to the 2020 inductees from International Boxing Hall of Fame Executive Director Edward Brophy, it states: 11. As for the Observers, I have had limited dealings with Hauser, the most recent of which was linked to the release of “Muhammad Ali: By the Numbers” in 2018. "By combining the celebrations of the induction classes of 2020 and 2021, the Hall of Fame can honor inductees with all the bells and whistles that the Hall of Fame weekend is known for and provide each inductee with the recognition they each so richly deserve,". That’s how sure I am that it will happen. The focus instead lands on coming up big in 2021. Per ESPN's Dan Rafael, this year's group of Hall of Famers will be inducted alongside the 2021 class at next year's induction weekend from June 10-13. All rights reserved. I believe that if what I envision comes to pass, the 2021 celebration may well break all previous attendance records – if no social distancing or capacity limits are in effect, that is.

It's time for us to roll out the red carpet for the Nevada Boxing Hall of Fame’s 7th Annual Induction Weekend. The 2020 Induction Class includes boxers Fernando “El Feroz” Vargas, Clarence “Bones” Adams, Andre “SOG” Ward, James “Lights Out” Toney, … The UFC and WWE are committed to empty-arena events with an eerie vibe. But normally it includes a full weekend of festivities, as many in the boxing world relish in the chance to carouse in person. I first met her (as well as then-husband/trainer/publicist Jim) at a past Induction Weekend and our shared West Virginia roots and our mutual love of boxing created an instant and long-lasting bond. As for Mosley, my memories are more peripheral. Martin won the fight with a decision in the sixth round. But with gyms shut down and international fighters and trainers unable to travel, the necessary buildup to a fight became impossible.
But we think he’s on the right path. Thanks to my being ringside for their shows I got a small glimpse into why a majority of the voters chose to honor them – they are smart, driven, detail-oriented, hands-on operators who know all the ins and outs of their business, including how to identify stars and to move the fighters they sign.
