Ring Magazine hall of fame
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ring Magazine was established in 1922. In 1954 the magazine established its own Boxing Hall of Fame and inducted 155 members before it was abandoned after the 1987 inductions. Boxing inductions continue through the International Boxing Hall of Fame. 131 members of the old Ring Hall of Fame have been elected to the International Boxing Hall of Fame since 1989.
