        - - Willie Meehan had at least 10 HOF fights including Jack Dillion, Sam Langford, many x vs Dempsey, and Greb twice.

            1. Jim Driscoll [INCORRECT]
            2. Battling Levinsky
            3. Tommy Gibbons
            4. Sam Langford
            5. Joe Jeannette
            6. Jack Dempsey
            7. Kid Norfolk
            8. Stanley Ketchel
            9. Jack Dillion
            10. Frank Klaus
            11. ?
            12. ?

            It looks like I can't. I took a guess on Porky Dan, but I can't back it up, I am two short. Damn!

              Willie Meehan is a good guess too.

                I can only guess at some maybes without massive research. Can you at least give us a hint and tell how many there are in total, or do you know? I assume you do.

                I think The Houge brothers and Chuck Wiggins could easily be on such a list if not HOFers themselves. Another guy could be Gus Lesnevich. I don't know the HOF very well.

                  Good try, nevertheless... though Jim Driscoll looks a bit out of place here!

                    Yeah... but not really that close to 12 (I have him at 8)
