If Andre Ward retired today, should he get inducted into the HOF?

[LacedUp]

What are your thoughts on this?

Poll to be added.

[jas]

if you think no then neither should froch

i think yes

[NEETzsche]

nah. he was on top of the game for, what, 2-3 years? not even enough time to be justifiably rated as a great of his era, let alone of all-time.

He's a HOF talent.

Hopefully he returns for some more fights to make certain of a HOF spot. 2 or 3 years at the top is a short period of time.

2012 yes now it's a toss-up with the inactivity.

He belongs. He would have beaten Calzaghe, Bute, and anyone else put in front of him.

Well would have's don't really count for much.

The question is what he has done as of today, and if that's enough.

if you think no then neither should froch

i think yes

I don't see why that is?

Froch has 12 world titles fights/defences, is a 4 time world champion and has a better resume than Ward in my opinion.

Ward has 7 world title fights.

Sure if overated hamed is considered for HOF, so does Andre ward i guess. The standard is too low

Froch also at least makes an effort to fight outside of one county
