Ranking Resumes- Froch, Hatton, Margarito and Castillo

[W1LLPARK3R]

Honestly, I could see all four guys make it in but I've seen good arguments for both sides.

I'm not so sure that those are better wins than Paulie. I guess they're in the same neighborhood. I can't think of any noteworthy fighter either guy has beaten.

I don't understand the argument for Hatton getting into the HOF other than beating super famous.

You're joking right? Hatton was 43-0 and undefeated 10 years going into the Mayweather fight..lineal undisputed best 140 during his run..beat and retired ATG Tszyu..geez, This site just gets worse and worse..

I'd put Hatton in the HOF,but I could see the argument for him not getting in either..He fought most of his career in the UK and did not really start stepping it up until late in his career..For me tho,great fighter to watch and he always left it in the ring,what pushed his in imo was the 140lb run and he won a belt at 147lb..

I agree. I think a case could be made for each fighter making it.

Froch has a deep resume.
Hatton was the man at 140.
Castillo had a great run at 135.
Margarito has the best win of the bunch and a solid resume.

I find it a lil hard with Marga's,but I guess your right..Marga's has Cotto and Martinez on his resume..That's not bad...

It's hard to say with Margs. Glovegate may keep him out. Over time he may sneak in though.

I don't think they'll put Margarito in the HOF because of the scandal, but Trinidad did make it and he also had similar things said about him in his career.

True but Tito's resume was a lot better tho..I also don't think he was caught..Margas was..

Froch
Castillio
Hatton

All HOF

Margs I cant. His resume is just OK. But the glove thing and the ass whippings he took from Shane and Pac make me feel he is just overrated.

The Ass Whipping he took from Pac should contribute to his credentials. He never stopped coming forward.

With the news that Carl Froch has retired and the consequent debate about his HOF status, I think we should rank some resumes. The four guys I would like to rank are all borderline HOFs (you can make an argument either way). Here are each fighter's best wins:

Froch- Pascal, Kessler, Dirrell,Taylor, Bute, Abraham, Johnson.
Hatton- Tszyu, Collazo, Malinaggi, Castillo
Margarito- Cotto, Cintronx2, Clottey, Martinez
Castillo- Casamayor, Johnston, Corrales, Lazcano, Diaz, Bazan

My ranking would be Froch, Castillo, Margarito, Hatton. What are your thoughts/rankings?

First off, Froch and Hatton are first ballot HOFers.

Margarito's legacy is tarnished, just like Mosley or Toney and none of them deserve the HOF.

Castillo should be in their considering the likes of Gatti are.

Now counting Margarito's win over martinez s a bit laughable as he was very green and only been in boxing a few years. Just naming a name doesn't make it a best win.
