    Will Floyd be a HOF cause of his skills or accomplishments?

    Or is it due to the fact that he started at 130 and he moved all the way up to 154? Or is it because he is undefeated?

    Accomplishments:

    130 title against Genaro Hernandez
    135 title against Castillo
    140 title against Gatti
    147 title against Baldomir
    154 title against DLH

    I think he's a HOF because of his accomplishments and the 0 on the record. If the zero on the record goes, he's no better than DLH as an all time great.

    Beating Corrales was a good win as well. Going from 130-154 and winning titles in all those weightclasses is his best achievement. That's what he says himself. He fought the best from 130-140. If he fights Cotto/Margarito then he beat the best man at 147 as well.

        Accomplishments methinks. His skills could make him one of the greatest ever, if he uses them against someone who will make people's mouths water.

          No better than DLH, if he loses? WOW, So what if Floyd had starved himself years ago to make 122 or 126 and dang near killed those little guys, like DLH did when he campaigned at 135 and Floyd later came up to 140-147 and lost all his big fights, how would you look at him then? Thats basically what DLH has done in his career.

            Considering his skills, Floyds accomplishments are horrendous.

            He coulda been so much more. He still could be very big if he beats like Cotto and such, but good god he coulda been THE GOAT if he fought the best on his way up. He only did that occasionaly

                    Floyd will make the HOF based on his skills and his record.
