    Why? After Lennox and Wlad was on his comeback after getting KOd he was considered the #1 HW until he retired, and after a 4 year lay-off he came back and dominated the WBC champion as well as three solid HWs, and is a 3-time HW champion. I think that's good enough, but of course it's not up to me, time will tell.

        He was considered the #1 HW for how long exactly? And who did he beat in that time?

          I sure don't. We all have different standards I guess.

            Less than one year, Sanders and Williams. But remember, he's still fighting right now, what if he fights, say, Valuev and Haye this year and beats them both?

              I think he will get in easily tbh.
              Hopefully you are still here in 5 years so I can remind you of it when hes inducted

                So for less than a year against less than stellar opposition. Dominated? I don't think so.

                    They will easily get in the HOF.
                    Can't ask more than dominating the division you're in...
                    If you fail to see and appreciate their dominance, you're just a hater, simple.

                      Right now he is, along with Wlad. Remember he's still fighting, what would you say if he beats Valuev and Haye this year?
