zab has had a good career,, the things that will help him is his longevity,,
good amateur career,,, olympian i believe or close to it,,,
had alot of solid wins at 140, and was a 3 time champ there,,
lineal welter champ,,,
fought a who's who of his era: ward, tsyzu, corley, spinks twice, floyd, baldomir, cotto, khan, lucas, clottey, danny,etc
one more big win, and he should be a HOFer,, not first ballot, but he will get in eventually,,,,
would have liked to seen him tangle with hatton, shane, corrales, castillo, morales, jmm, manny,
well he has spinks who beat mayorga (Mayorga had just ko'd forest & was blazing hot at the time) mickey ward, corley, matthysse. a win over Malignaggi would be good..........
i don't think judahs resume is as poor as a lot of people think............
I actually agree with this..
Nope. The Baldomir fight is where he threw it all away. He acted like a bratty arrogant sh*t and almost got KTFO for his misdeeds. Then he crumbled after four with Floyd. The rest is history.
His best win is Cory Spinks, a guy who he's 1-1 with. Noway is he HOF, but there are worse fighters in there already so it doesn't take much more to get in.

I think so.
The HOF is occupied by the recognizable faces of the sport. Not just the best and most accomplished.
I've met a lot of people who don't follow boxing, but they know who Zab is.
Also, hes got a lot of solid wins over some stiff competition. But, unfortunately, he doesn't have that superb, career defining win.
The question here is, what is the HOF, and what determines who should be in or not?
I mean, if Qawi can get in, so should Zab.
You bring up an interesting point bro,What does it take to be a HOF?I've always thought it was a mix of accomplishments and wins over quality opponents..Zab has accomplishments,but he does not have the quality wins..He's a strange case,I think there is an argument for him to get in..There is also a very strong argument for him not to be in..Zab is a very strange case..

The spite in Mayweather's eyes lol.
Anyway in my opinion he should be in the Hall of Fame, in the sense that he is one of the eras fighters I will talk about 30 years from now; that being said I believe the Hall of Fame should have tiers and categories.
Open Question to some people on this thread:
since when is: "some people got into the HOF who do not belong" a reason, a justification for allowing this to happen again?
Of course not but then again you think Bradley should be in the Hall of Fame so I'm not surprised you asked this.
Most everyone came into this thread and talk very sensible..You came in this thread and brought the same vibe as Calm down,a known troll..I mean I always knew you were a troll..This just confirms it..
Zab is more accomplished and better than Gatti, or some of the others that got in. So, yes.
Thats a very fragile argument....A red herring. What your argument boils down to is "Zab belongs because others who don't belong got in." And thats your point not mine. Now heres the thing about Gatti
many did not think he belonged as in the HOF.
The people that did think he belonged did so because certain attributes not related to his actual skill. His exciting fights, the type of ethos he represented, his star power over people.
Zab has none of the qualities that got Gatti into the HOF. Zab does not go blood and guts, Zab did not have the draw, Zab was/is a chronic underachiever while Gatti did better than he should have.
I like Zab. I think he is a force to be reckoned with as a gate keeper, I think in the first four rounds of a fight he is dangerous to anyone, and I fully expect him to pick up a championship again somewhere down the line. But he is not a HOF
