What does Lomachenko need to do to become a HOFer?

[Tony Trick-Pony]

Let him beat Pac and Linares and possibly Crawford. he's a lock at that point, but the way he performed tonight, it seems plausible.

Hate to break it to you, but a win over Nicholas "Axeman" Walters isn't getting anyone enshrined.

no its not but 2 world titles in 8 fights and should of been 3 is unheard of and i guess you cant see greatness which explains why you have a fraud in your avi

A path to victory. Top it off with Crawford and he is in.

I mean, I'm not even saying he can beat Crawford. But after tonight, I know he damn well has a chance. He's got to move up in weight to the big fights, though.

Does amateur boxing count at all towards the HOF?

Any fighter can make it if they stay dominant over their career. You don't need a big name, you'll get big enough names over the years if you fight the best available. So long as Lomachenko does that and wins he can be a HOFer.

He turned pro at 27...how do you become a hall of fame fighter starting at 27? He is one of the most gifted fighters in terms of skill I have ever seen, but how do we get him into Canastota?

I think he is on the track to it. just try to keep unifying

I mean the guy has 8 fights and is already at/near the top of his weight class

he beats Vargas or Corrales and he will be consider the top dog at 130

keep moving up and continue on that path he is on.

I'd like to see him in with Mikey Garcia. Not sure that secures the HOF but it's a terrific matchup if Mikey Garcia doesn't move up to 140 too quickly.

Loma needs to fight Guillermo Rigondeaux to be a hall of famer and erase all doubt
