Australian National Boxing Hall of Fame
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Australian National Boxing Hall of Fame was founded in 2001 and began inducting boxers into the Hall of Fame in 2003. Since then annual induction dinners have been held.
The Hall of Fame has a display of boxing memorabilia open to the public via a showcase at the National Sports Museum at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG).
