Default HOF RC Boxing List - WTB and looking for suggestions

Hi everyone, and greetings from a first-time poster to this thread. I recently took an interest in collecting boxing cards, and wanted to try to figure out which cards are considered the 'true' rookies of some of the most notable boxers. Here is my work-in-progress list:

1887 A&G N28 John L. Sullivan
1887 N174 Old Judge Bob Fitzsimmons
1890 Mayo James Corbett
1890 Mayo Young Griffo
1901 Ogden's Cigarettes Jim Jeffries (Heroes of the Ring Series, General Interest Series)
1908 Ogden's Cigarettes Tommy Burns
1908 Ogden's Cigarettes Joe Gans
1908 T226 Red Sun Stanley Ketchel
1909 American Caramel Marvin Hart
1909 Ogden's Cigarettes Jack Johnson
1909 Ogden's Cigarettes Sam Langford
1910 T218 Mecca Joe Jeanette
1912 Cohen Weenen Georges Carpentier
1915 Ogden's Cigarettes Jess Willard
1915 Ogden's Jimmy Wilde
1919 Underwood and Underwood Jack Dempsey (possibly a 1920 issue)
1921 W551 Mickey Walker
1922 Sporting Champions Benny Leonard (1920 W529)
1923 W580 Gene Tunney
1926 Greiling Cigarettes B+W Max Schmeling
1927 Greiling Cigarettes Jack Sharkey
1928 W513 Tony Canzoneri
1929 Godfrey Philips Primo Carnera
1933 Sport Kings Max Baer
1935 Pattreioux Sporting Celebrities James Braddock
1935 Pattreioux Sporting Celebrities Joe Louis
1938 FC Cartledge Henry Armstrong (1930s Exhibit)
1938 FC Cartledge John Henry Lewis (1938 Churchman, 1935?? UTC)
1947 D. Cummings and Son Sugar Ray Robinson
1947 D. Cummings and Son Jersey Joe Walcott
1947 D. Cummings and Son Willie Pep
1948 Leaf Jake La Motta
1948 Leaf Marcel Cerdan
1948-9 Futbol Po-Po / Boxeadores Disc Archie Moore
1951 Topps Ringside Ezzard Charles
1951 Topps Ringside Rocky Marciano
1958 DC Thompson Floyd Patterson
1958 Heinerle Ingemar Johansson
1960 Hemmets Journal Muhammed Ali
1964 Bobbie Joe Frazier (1964 Nestle)
1966 Panini Sonny Liston
1973 Panini George Foreman
1973 Panini Roberto Duran
1976 Panini Leon Spinks
1977-79 Sportscaster Sugar Ray Leonard
1977-79 Sportscaster Larry Holmes
1982 Panini Marvin Hagler
1986 Panini Mike Tyson (Italian version)
1986 Browns Boxing Evander Holyfield
1986 Browns Boxing Pernell Whitaker

I have 1989 as the cutoff for this list, but very open to considering others that I may have missed that should be on here, up to a max of perhaps 50 cards. While I have a few of the above, I'd be interested in buying the others, and would love to jointly start an SGC or PSA set registry for something like the above if there is interest and agreement on specific issues. I would love to hear suggestions and tips from the real experts here, and look forward to learning more!

Edited 9 Feb 2013 for updates

Fitzsimmons has a pre-Mayo rookie card-an Old Judge. It is a rare card but it predates the Mayo
