    Wlad is an absolute shoe in.

    Only thing that could keep him out first time round is the amount of greats retiring around now

          It's all about timing.

          This class wasn't particularly deep. You could make a case for Ricky Hatton as well.

          But the class of 2022 is going to be very interesting to see who gets in and who is left out.

            I hate that Jim Gray is going to in the Boxing Hall of Fame. That squirrely **** doesn't even like boxing and he has never respected a single fighter in the sport. Dude would rather interview D-III college basketball players.

              Morales is the only true great of that lineup

              The other two were nothing special

                    Wladimir is a surefire Hall of famer but Vitali??? He never fought anybody other than Byrd & Lennox Lewis. He won a vacant title against journeyman Corrie Sanders & beat Sam Peter. Sosnowski, Charr, Arreola, Solis, Kingpin, Briggs, Juan Carlos Gomez, Chisora, Adamek. Heck even before the WBO title was recognized he made defenses against Ed Mahone & Obed Sullivan. His best win is either Sam Peter, Kirk Johnson or Chisora. The hall of fame has pretty low standards. He beat Larry Donald too which is a good win but Hall of fame worthy? The list of guys he didn't fight in his era is astounding. 14 former world champions & several top 10 HWs he never fought in his era. This is why I never took sports hall of fames or the Rock & Roll hall of fame seriously...

                      All three of them deserve it. I remember when I first started to really get into boxing. Watching Winky vs Trinidad expecting Trinidad to dominate. Never expected Winky dominating but I was happy been a fan of his every since.
