It's a Hall of Fame Induction Class that those in Canastota and boxing circles worldwide will never forget.

On Sunday, "Iron" Mike Tyson and Sylvester Stallone will join several others and be forever enshrined in the International Boxing Hall of Fame in Canastota.

In anticipation of unprecedented crowds and media coverage, the Hall is adding more tents with chairs under them and several risers for cameras to shoot from.

Festivities for the weekend kick off at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday, and while it's unclear when Tyson and Stallone will arrive, they are most definitely expected for the actual induction ceremony at 2:30 on Sunday.

Are you excited for the induction ceremony? Will you attend, with Tyson and Stallone just down the road in Canastota?\
