Are these fighters Hall of Famers?

No RJJ was NOT in his prime. He was not @ the END of his prime becuz he wasn't even in his prime

Get it?

How can you say he wasn't still in his prime going into 2004? Just because he lost he wasn't in his prime anymore? That TKO Tarver gave him psychologically damaged him as a fighter after. That's why he lost to Glen Johnson right after. Past his prime Jones Jr. is what Joe Calzaghe fought, and what Bernard Hopkins fought in their second fight.

If he wasn't in his prime still in 2004, what was the year he wasn't in his prime anymore?

Imo no. But Cotto will get in. None of the others will.

I loved Arturo Gatti fights. Always a fan favorite win/lose/draw he came to fight, but if you put him in the Hall of Fame, all of the above should be in the Hall of Fame as well.

Well said. It's almost as if there ought to be a "fan favorite" section of the HOF.

Arturo doesn't deserve to be there on skill or accomplishment but I think he deserves to be remembered. Everyone of us, who saw him live, especially those incredible comebacks in the 90s, will remember him.

Man come on u think he was still in his prime in 2004? He was past his prime in the 1st Tarver fight.

U can't be serious. He was not anything close to his old self then
