Is Wladimir Klitschko already a Hall of Famer?

He won his first heavyweight title belt against Chris Byrd. Then he defended it five straight times which were all won via Tko/ko. He was upset by Corrie Sanders. Then he suffered a TKO loss to Lamon Brewster after taking two bounce back fights. Then after beating Davarryl Williamson and Eliseo Castillo, he challenges undefeated hard hitting Sam Peter. He won that via Decision. Then he rematches Chris Byrd for a heavyweight title and stops him. Since then he has made 6 straight defenses. 5 of the 6 were by stoppage. These 6 defenses were against the likes of Lamon Brewster where he avenged a loss. Calvin Brock who was undefeated and a hope for the next best american heavyweight, then he unified his IBF belt with the undefeated WBO champion Sultan Ibragimov and won a near shutout. Afterwords he stops Tony Thompson in 11 rounds and stopped former universally recognized heavyweight champion Hasim Rahman in 7 rounds. What do you guys think? Hall of fame worthy already? I think he is

No, 3 KO losses in a rubbish division to below average fighters. He may be able to become HOF worthy depending on what he does in the next few year though

Too early to tell, imo he just finished putting all his loses in the past and his reputation with those loses too. I don't think he's been tested by a tough opponet in some time to see if he's worthy of hof. The 2nd Peters win was great but lets see how he does now.

He could end up with 70+ wins on his record and that would be impressive but his opposition is questionable. He has no marquee wins, that may change in the future.

No, he is a good heavy weight, but not HOF material.

He needs more decent wins to qualify for the Hall I think. Letting his brother fight his best competition isn't going to help.

If Wlad was undefeated at this point, I'd say yes But he has 3 KO losses in the worst heavyweight era ever. That alone should disqualify him from ever contending for the Hall of Fame
