Comments Thread For: Hall of a chance: Among active fighters, who?s headed for Canastota?

[BoxingUpdates]

There?s never a bad time, really, to wonder which active fighters will eventually become hall of famers. But this feels like an especially appropriate time...

OK Danny Garcia is NOT a HOF, in every big step up he had, he lost, cherry picked fights against past their prime fighters, won a BS 147 belt, and then didn't reign, he was beaten, quickly, bested by all his contemporaries, Khan was a fraud, I don't count that as a big win beyond winning a belt. get him off this list...the Charlo's? No...younger yes, older no....unless something dramatic happens in the next 2 or 3 years....Wilder is a surefire HOF...10 title defenses, highlight reel KO's....best HW trilogy of the modern era...yeah he will get in.

Wait a sec. Spence over undisputed champion Jermell Charlo? Come on now.

[Grandma Lover]

Eh bivol seems like a long shot as well. A really good win against a 40 year old in beter and a small overrated fighter in carnela isn't really hof worthy. Heck beter has a better resume.

Can I ask why Tarver and Chris Byrd are not in the hall of fame ?

he put RYAN GARCIA as a candidate! a PROVEN cheat, ZERO division champion in a four belt era with no great wins and a lunatic. his list is irrelevant the moment you read that. whoever votes for ryan deserves a death penalty. and i am not even kidding.

he put guys like bam in his lowest category when he's better than guys in his 2nd category. bam's already better than gatti, mancini and pazienza (to name a few recent inductions).
kazuto ioka, a four division champion with an 8 year reign is not even mentioned.

So Sor Rungvisai, the 4th King of Super Fly's 4 Kings is also still active. Besides Gallo, he's the only with a winning record in fights between the 4. Also the only legit, unquestionable loss of Chocalatito? Courtesy of Sor Rungvisai in their rematch. I think he has a shot at the HoF

Spence?
Garcia?
Hof, you'd seriously consider Aj & Wilder? Ajs avoided both his (so called) peers until the top cruiserweight came up.
Name just 1 prime elite Heavyweight either have beaten, you don't avoid undesputed for the longest time 2 heavyweights have reigned in history & get into the hof. Fury, 2nd ballot maybe but not those 2 with they're shot old men & cans records, christ Aj only remained relevant because he'd wear a parachute every fight holding belts hostage with rematchroom clauses.

Its not the hall of fail every time you face a live opponent.

Can I ask why Tarver and Chris Byrd are not in the hall of fame ?

Well that's straight forward, Tarver is a disgusting two time drug cheat and Chris Bryd...did...what? Please tell me? Hold an alphabet title during a WEAK time for the division? No, not a HOF
