Comments Thread For: Jermell Charlo: "I'm Amongst The Hall of Famers Already"

Jermell has a point. Name an undisputed champion who did not make the Hall of Fame..

Jermaine Taylor & O'Neil Bell both were undisputed champions but neither is in the hall of fame.

There's an argument for & against Charlo getting into the hall of fame if his career was to end today; he's not a clear cut entry.

Wtf. This current generation. If you have to proclaim your a hof then ur not. It's friggin embarrassing. I can't imagine the truly greats from the past doing this.

Tim bradley is in there, Charlo has to be there no questions asked.

"Daring to be great". Hmm,where have I heard that before? Ah yes, Mikey vs Spence,Khan vs Canelo, Kell vs GGG,hell even Canelo vs Bivol. Daring to be great is the get out of jail free card for a smaller fighter when the weight jump doesn't work out for them,and they need an excuse as to why they lost.

100%. Esp. when the jump in weight coincides with a higher paycheck than otherwise. I'll give Canelo credit for Bivol though...he could've fought a lesser guy with a much bigger name and paycheck than Bivol. I think he really was daring to be great.

Add Zab Judah and Cory Spinks to that list.

And Buster Douglas.

Tim Bradley is in there because he unquestionably deserves to be in there. I won't even dignify it by breaking it down other than to say that Tim's resume is an entire galaxy beyond Charlo's. Charlo beat Tony Harrison and Brian Castaņo, horray. And he lost to both in the 1st fights (Castaņo was robbed the 1st time) and still today the best name on his resume comes from beating an aged Austin Trout 100 years ago. If he whoops Canelo or gives an epic account of himself, and then wins one more big fight then we can start talking about it.

So much for the daily Charlo filler.
