      Both these guys are good, but past light heavies like Michael Spinks, Dwight Braxton, Holyfield, Archie Moore, Bob Foster and others were very good too. Bivol & Beterbiev deserve HOF.

        Bivol already has a W over a future HOFamer so beating Beterbiev would absolutely make him a future HOF himself imo.

          Absolutely. But they must actually fight and have a winner first. I don't agree with the statement that they're the two dominant light heavyweights of their era, so they deserve HOF. Galindez and Conteh were the two dominant guys in their era between Foster and Spinks. But they never fought each other, so neither belongs in the HOF.

            Beterbiev is the one of most destructive light heavyweights in history​ relative to the guys he's fought. He wasn't facing any ATG Light Heavies. No way he walks over Spinks, Ezzard Charles, or Roy Jones. I like him, but let's have some context.

              Answer: yes.

              And it will be Beterbiev.

                Sure , why not ? If Big Head Bradley is in , just go ahead and put any recognizable name in. I'm not saying that about Bivol or Beterbiev. Just speaking in general.

                  only if Bivol wins.


                  Beterbiev's resume is trash. he's pure hype. who is his best win?

                    If they were American, definitely.
