    Once again, a well wishing post.

    he most likely will not get in. it's been decades already.

      so being a draw > relations with the media.


      that's why Ward is even less likely to get in than Froch, someone he beat.


      My argument stands.
      OK. So your point is despite Ward's in the ring accomplishments if he retired today he wouldn't get in the HOF because he doesn't sell tickets and doesn't have a good relationship with those that do the voting? If that's your argument I'd tend to agree. But as far as his in the ring accomplishments he'd be a hall of famer is non biased voters were voting

        Ward HAS to win this fight to even be considered on par with Michael Moorer. Michael Moorer has been in some blockbuster PPV's too.



        HOWEVER, that is a big if. Kov might knock him out. then what happens? lol no more HOF.

            how could he be a hall of famer when he's not dominant. nor does he have any HOF wins?


            are you sure Froch gets in the HOF? i mean..... eubank sr and benn aren't in. what makes you so certain Froch gets in.

              Disagree. Ward has a better resume and is younger. He's also an American.. which helps unfortunately.

                im actually comfortable taking those chances, daring to be great. moving up after solidifying yourself as the best in one division, go after the best in another. i love the matchup and whomever wins gets the reap the rewards that come along with it.

                  In case Kovalev beats him now, Ward is done... and no further HOF discussion is pointless.

                  In case Ward wins, he has to give Kovalev the rematch a.s.o.

                  We'll talk about this when the time comes...

                    that's fine. been eligible several years and he's still not in. there are new eligible inductees every year.


                    the point is he's not in. you wishing he gets in is just that a well wishing.
