Taylor is one of my faves on that list but it's just too bad he was beaten by Pavlik twice, Froch and Abraham at a pretty young age, and badly too. I would understand if it was like Roy who started losing fights at mid 30s-late 30s after he already made his legendary move up to HW. But losing like that at late 20s-early 30s and just like 30 fights really hurts your chances at the HOF. I would also understand being 30 and being battle worn from 40-50 pro fights but 33 fights..na. Winky was a good fight but a draw, Hopkins were two good wins, Lacy was boarder line win, Ouma was an alright win, Joppy was an ok win, Raul Marquez was an ok win.
Jones, Hopkins, and Calzaghe are in for sure. Taylor and Tarver are close, but probably just outside of where they need to be to get in the HOF. Kessler or Froch would be HOFers if they win the super 6 tournament.
