    Every supposedly decent fighter Cotto beat at 140 either sucks as of now or is a gate keeper. He has never beaten an A level fighter without controversy. HOF he is not. IMO.

      They are gate keepers because Miguel beat their ass. Get out of this thread, Iceta.

        Yes, he will be without a doubt in the HOF, he is a 3 division world champion fighting all of the best at 140 and 147 who would fight him winning most of those fights.

        Lets also keep in mind that his career is not over yet and he could still add some more good wins to his already outstanding res.

Then he beats Malignaggi unimpressively, may I add, all to get blasted in 2 rounds by Manny. Oh and the biggest victory of his career was an old Kosta Tsyzu... hate to burst but your bubble but Hatton was never any good.
            If you think Hatton came close to being KO'd by Lazcano and was unimpressive against Malignaggi? Then feel free to post vids/links as evidence to prove this. I'd like to see it.

            Tsyzu was still P4P one of the best in boxing when Hatton beat him(P4P #2 or #3 i think?)

            Losing to two of the best fighters of this era in Mayweather and Pacquiao doesn't mean you ain't ****!

              So he's going to drop 10 pounds to fight an fat Marquez? And then fight Carlos "That Guy Who Beat Judah..." Baldomir? Are you kidding? That's what gets him into the Hall? Get real bro.

                Now if you talking about lineal champ. Then OK I see your point. So is that what you saying? Lineal champ?
                that and also never was an undisputed champ he was the vacant champ at 147 and at 154 he beat Yuri foreman

                  Winning a lineal title means nothing if a fighter deserves to be in the HOF or not.

                  With that logic fighters like Langford, Burley, or Roy Jones Jr are not HOF'er since they NEVER won a lineal title.

                      No way in hell that a kneel-er will ever be put in the HOF. First of all it will destroy the integrity of the people who chooses the fighters to get elected to the elite group.
