    Doesn't matter. There are other things to consider when adding up a fighter's career campaign. A great example here; Moorer won the heavyweight championship of the world, the oldest and most international title in sports. Moorer fought for the title once held by John L. Sullivan, Jack Johnson, Jack Dempsey, Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano and Muhammad Ali, and won that title. Vitali Klitschko, as a recent example of a gifted heavyweight; fought for that title only once, and lost. History alway has the final say. Moorer is IN.
    Every fighter that wins the Heavyweight title is a HOF ?

          How many top 10 fighters did Tua fight from 1996 to 2000? I really liked Tua, but his resume is thin to say the least. He was a great puncher, but most of his knockouts came against fringe top 10 guys.
          - - Would've KOed Ike in the rematch for starters. Lewis had to be dragged to the ring to fight him. Nyet say Big Dummy, Field, and Tyson. Even Foreman, ie no upside to fighting him as Ruiz, Rahman, and Moorer found out.

            All real world heavyweight champions are automatically worthy. That includes Marvin Hart, Primo Carnera, Leon Spinks, Buster Douglas, Michael Moorer, Shannon Briggs, Tyson Fury. Ingo and all the others are already in.

                Damm, I dunno. Did he blast out Lennox Lewis then get blasted out in the return, or did I just dream that?

                    - - Primo with the best record of all heavies not in the HOF, a better record than at least 40% of them.
