    With a Bum Of The Month resume it will be a very long time before he gets a call from Canasota N.Y. if at all.

      His personality is unbearable, but I see no problem with him being in the HOF. He’s got a fairly weak resume, but ten consecutive title defenses is tied for fifth most all-time.

        Wilders career isn’t done yet but he’s also accumulated a knockout record I think ? Much like Foreman who I think is more known for his power and stoppages then his own wins . I think he a.so only defended the belt three times but is also the oldest heavyweight champion. To reach the hall of fame you get their fir accomplishments in your own era ,I’d be on the fence however if it were me voting because I really think he needs a true top win against a current guy who’s in top 5 at least .

        Theres been fighters like Shavers in there so going on that I’d probably have to induct him which in the older days if you were just known it got you in so ? Wilder has more going for him then a good handful of heavyweights who got in . Looking past his resume , title defenses are real and so is his knockout percentage,you can even make things up here like the most wins with a right hand I don’t know but he’s made his mark to any one’s discretion big or small .
        Shavers may have walked into the HOF at one point, but he certainly wasn't inducted.

          Up to this point, he's Furys best win and his fans call Wilder a bum.

            There are people less deserving that are in the hall of fame

              Only Fury and Usyk are worthy. The rest are road kill.

                Hard to recall a HW era as pitiful as the one we're in

                  Take a look back over the prior 10-15 years.

                    I don't think so. There are other good contenders out there. Fury and Usyk seem to be the class of the division, but that may be the case only because they haven't fought many of the up and coming HWs.

                      Not the IBHOF, but he is in the LV HOF, if that's what the other guy meant.
