NEVER.....................he has done nothing, he is a stepping stone for others that's all....if that's the case gatti, ward, baldomir, tapia, ayala and others should be in there as well, so NO judah is no where near even if he fights 20 yrs beyond this pointComment

I'm going to have to be the needle in the haystack here and say Yes he should go into the hall of fame, Zab unified the belts after a long ass time, he did so with pure skills and he looked great doing so, he TKO'ed Cory Spinks and Jermain Taylor himself couldn't even phase Spinks many years and fights later at a weight where Spinks was clearly not the same, Judah knocked him out ya feel me, against someone as quick and skill full as Cory thats hard to do especially when he's in his prime, you could argue for all 5 of Zab's losses and he gave Mayweather a run for his money, the best so far at WW even putting him down and not getting credit.. his ability and boxing superstar status combined with wins over Terron Millet, Junior Witter, Mickey Ward, Demarcus Corley, Cory Spinks and Rafael Pineda and also understandable losses in terms of caliber opponents against all but 1 person plus him being a champion in 2 weight classes 3 if he beats this next guy at JMW, all this is enough to put him in the Hall Of Fame..
there are lesser fighters in there in terms of skills and good name opponents, Zab clearly doesn't get the respect he deserves, if Zab was more laid back and knew how to maintain a game plan and use it effectively he could have lost all but 1 fight and it would have been against Cotto because if Zab had Shane Mosley's mantal strength combined with his own skills he would have out hustled Floyd, he deteriorated as the fight went on because he fed into the bull****, it came down more to just him having too big of an ego than not having the skills to defeat these guys.. I think he is worthy of entry into the hall of fame and he is still actively giving more reasons to be honored with HOF status.. you don't have to be Joe Louis or Aaron Pryor to be in the hall of fame, they were destined for that but someone like Zab definitely qualifies in my eyes. 100Comment
