  • Which current fighters do you think are already Hall of Fame worthy based on their current resumes/accomplishments?

    Which current active fighters do you personally think are already hall of famers based on their current resumes/accomplishments? I know there's been some questionable people put in over the years so it's questionable on what they look for anymore on who goes in or not, but who do you personally think belongs in of the current fighters?

      Other than pacquiao, nobody

      Canelo is elite to me by TODAY's standards but if I were to pick who would be hall of fame, I don't think his resume would be up there.

        Lomachenko, Rigondeaux and Robisey Ramirez go in based off their amateur careers. Pacquao is an obvious lock. Kazuta Ioka, Donaire and Chocolatito. Usyk based on his amateur career and his time at Cruiserweight.

          It's not the baseball HOF where they only take the cream of the crop. Pretty sure it's more like the Hockey Hall of Fame where they take a certain number of boxers each year regardless of if it's a weak year or not. Like, I'm a big Gatti fan, but he's got no business being in the HOF.

            It's very tricky in my opinion. How do you rank "cream of the crop"? Back in the day, boxers would be blackballed from potentially classic matches. A guy like let's say Oscar had so much more opportunities than a Jack Johnson type of boxer. But both of them are great boxers to me, I'd say they are both hall of fame. And obviously someone like Sonny Liston didn't have the opportunities as other great boxers, but still HOF worthy because of what he was able to achieve plus skills.

            Gatti had some good wins, no great wins, but definitely brought a lot of fun to boxing. A people's champ. Is he HOF-skilled? Definitely not. But I can see why he was put there.
            Prince Nas was even more skilled and he's a legend in my book, but a good portion of people feel like he isn't HOF worthy and they have a good argument.

              There's probably 5 active at 115 alone - stacked!

              Chocolatito
              Estrada
              SSR - wins over Choco and Estrada in their primes
              Ioka - sealed it with the Tanaka KO
              Nietes

              Donaire
              Loma
              Mikey
              Crawford
              Pac
              GGG
              Canelo
              Zelenoff
              Kovalev
              Usyk
              Fury

              Inoue is only 28, he'll be a lock. AJ will be in regardless of whether he beats Fury across their two fights, we just need to see the fights to know who the top dog of the era is. Need to see more from Spence, Jermall, Wilder. Leo probably, Rigo if he beats Casimero.
