Comments Thread For: Deontay Wilder: "I'm A Hall Of Famer, No Questions Asked"

Not yet he’s not. He hasn’t beaten a top fighter yet, Ortiz? Nah. He was ko’ed twice by Fury. He’s got a ways to go before he deserves HOF.

Gatti and ricky hatton are in more for popularity than skill. hall of fame isnt even required to be the most skilled.

It has nothing to do with what you perceive as skill level. It's about your accomplishments. Ricky Hatton did enough to be in, but hasn't actually got there yet. In fact, we have a few that haven't over here when they should be a lock.

Hatton's win over world class Malignaggi alone is better than Wilder's whole worthless career.

There's a lot of hate for a fighter who Tyson Fury went life and death with. Also, those same people who laugh at the notion that Wilder gets in the Hall of Fame, are probably the same folks who believe that Mike Tyson had a Halll of Fame career. They've had the same exact careers, losing to the top guy(s). The only difference is Mike Tyson lost to tomato cans, while Wilder beat everyone he was supposed to.

Mike Tyson's world class wins...

Bruno x2
Ruddock x2
Botha
Golota
Spinks
Williams
Tubbs
Tucker
Berbick
Thomas
Smith

Wilder's world class win....

Tell me in which world are they the same? The world where Wilder gets his delusional ideas from? It looks like it from where i'm sitting.

Doesnt seem boxers nowadays need to do much to be inducted so Wilder will be eventually, even though he aint done much vs any top heavyweight fighters

He is. If you defend the belt 10 straight times, you're a hall of famer.

You believe these are HOF worthy?

[Sid-Knee]

Nope. Hall of fame for 10 title defenses against a string of solid contenders, being the best fighter that America has produced since Mike Tyson under the only rules that world history gives a care about; and being being a very very very close 2nd best heavyweight of his generation - The best generation of heavyweights since the mid 1970s. Anybody who would dispute any of that needs to choose a topic they're more familiar with to discuss.

I hope you're a troll. If not, seek help. Seriously.

He needs to get that body on his record. Nothing impresses people more than killing a guy in the ring !!!

That's surefire hall of fame stuff. No questions asked...

What shall keep Deontay Wilder out of the Hall of Fame? He has never popped dirty for doping, he has a high 91 percent KO ratio and he has the fifth most title defenses of any Heavyweight champion in history since Muhammad Ali.

Therefore, eventually and inevitably, he will get in. Perhaps not just on the first ballot. However, if he regains the Heavyweight title for the second time then he is almost a shoe in for a first ballot selection.

Be objective.

Wilder has the same title defenses than Emanuel Navarrete.

These days is not that hard to do that kind of things.

Emanuel Navarrete and Wilder both have more title defenses than Salvador Sánchez but look against who.

Stop.

The truth is that he only has one good win against an A level fighter, dont a élite, in the person of Luis Ortiz.

All the others were easy fights.

Stop, man.

Khan, Broner, and Wilder are all living in the same fantasy world.
