    Comments Thread For: Sergey Kovalev: Hall Of Fame Is Not My Goal, But I'll Be Happy If I'm Inducted

    Sergey Kovalev has carved a respectable career inside of the ring, but is it worthy of enshrinement into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in Canastota, New York?

      Easy, Krusher. Beat Pulev's brother, win a title, add some weight and go fight Dillian Whyte

          At his best he was a great fighter, would probably beat several guys who are in the HOF but if we're going by best official wins and accomplishments I don't think he did enough to get in.

              He'll make it, one of the best LHW's of all time, arguably beat Ward the first time and was destroying everything on his path like GGG used to.

              He will be a HoF, no doubt about it.

                  This.... If he got the official win over Ward i think that would have edged it

                              He's nowhere near one of the best lhw of all time. One of the best of the 2010s - that's it.

                              I don't know if he would beat Stevenson when they were both at their peaks. He officially lost to Ward even if Ward cheated 2nd fight and got a poor decision first fight.

                              Pretty sure he doesn't beat Beterbiev from a few years ago, maybe even now. then look at the lhw from the seventies - murderer's row.

                                  Mancini, McGuigan, Gatti are in the HOF. So on merit Kovalev deserves it but voting for HOF usually is not based on merit.
