OUR PURPOSE

NATIONAL BOXING HALL OF FAME MISSION STATEMENT:

Our mission is to honor this nation's wonderful athletic community of boxers and the boxing world that surrounds them.

We wish to honor the sport's "GREATS" both past and present and even the future which we do with the presentation of our NBHOF pick for tomorrow's "RISING STAR" award.

We wish to honor the fighters that didn't quite win that championship but without whom there would not have been a ladder that needed to be climbed in order to have champions. That tough, courageous, most important and overlooked part of the sport "The Contenders." Most true fans of the sport recognize the contenders are the guts of the sport.

We wish to honor the boxing people in, around and out of the ring.

AND OF COURSE, we wish to honor the Kings and Queens of the sport, "THE CHAMPIONS."
