Post, vote and discuss

He has a long way to go.....popularity can only take you so far


I think a better question would be....should he get in the hall of fame and not will he....hell look at do nothings like Gatti and McGuigan


By today's standards he might get in....but anyone who knows a thing or two about the sport and fighters of the past know, he has not done near enough to be there

[Fetta]

No he is not

[PK3434]

Not yet but will be soon. He still has 5 good years left and will be in several significant fights. He also could eclipse Hopkins middleweight defense record if he wants to. He will get there easily.

If his career ended today should he get in? I would say no. If he unifies the division I will say sure why not. Hell if he even sticks around a couple more years sure.

Kazakhstani hall of fame yes. IBHOF, not even close.

GGG in reality only has 4 defenses of WBA title since he was not the real champion until he beat Geale
