    Lewis is the only HOF that is on either man's resume, and we all know how that ended up.

    By resume I just meant who they beat. I could see the IBHOF throwing Haye in there; doubtful on anyone else.

    Byrd, Haye, Ibragimov, Chagaev, Peter, Thompson, Rahman, Povetkin etc...

    ALL have very high chances of getting into the HOF.


    Only an idiot would presume not.

    Besides that, HOF and ATG are both yankee institutions that really mean nothing at all. It's just ass sucking stuff really.

      Against Frazier he'd be a beast!
      Frazier was a small , one trick pony. Being totally honest, I really think Povetkin would have beaten him too.

        But he'd KO Frazier.
        You do realize that if all a fighter concentrates on is surviving it is naturally harder to stop them right? Frazier would have been gunning to land punches and it would have gotten him, with his small stature, annihilated.

          Now carry on with your debate, this thread is highly entertaining
          Glad you are entertained but Ali was indeed a master class, pure boxer. It's about hitting and not being hit. It's the name of the game. If he wasn't he would not have been able to come back when he did and still be successful.

          With your username I could have sworn you weren't a complete idiot but you have proven me wrong.

                Povetkin would never of tasted canvas against opponents like Henry Cooper.

                  Haye might get into the HOF someday due entirely to his cruiserweight accomplishments. Besides him that's it. The next best win for either of them is Byrd.
                  Did you really want to see Tyson, Holyfield and Toney get abused like that?

                  Those were the only options after Lennox retired chief.

                    Of course not. Povetkin is a classy boxer, unlike the bummy Cooper who nearly knocked Ali through the ropes Why would people in their right mind even question this? I know why, because they are not in their right mind.

                      I know you too well and you're just a spastic so you're probably not trolling which makes me worry for humanity.
