What current Eastern European fighters are HOF'ers?

[Chollo Vista]

Outside of Wlad and maybe Vital, where are all the Eastern European Hall of Famers in the last 20 years?

golovkin. klitschko will get in there whos recently retired. A lot of the eastern europeans are relatively new to the pro scene but have made quick progress. To be honest if cotto is getting in the hall of fame i'd argue that lomachenko should already considering he is seen as pound for pound number 1 which is something cotto never was at any point. Kovalev might end up in there too.

Every P4P #1 should be considered for the HOF?

Don't tell me why I said something. I met a chick from Kazakhstan at the gym the other day. I thought she was from Korea

But ok, if you want to call GGG an Eastern Euro lock for the Hall, that's fine by me

Was the chick half Russian too? For some reason, you want GGG to be excluded from the list. For some reason, you want to bash a fighter with 0 losses, yet applaud Loma who has a loss. It is what it is, but don't pretend it isnt what it is

if mancini got in then ggg, kovalev, usyk and loma are a lock. even rocky balboa got into the HOF.

They are far from locks.

Usyk a lock for the hall of fame? Don't be ridiculous.

I can't think of that many currently active Euro or American fighters who are shoe-ins for the HOF. Seems like a whole generation retired in the past 2-3 years. We have to talk in future-tense or there's barely anything to talk about.

Loma & GGG will definitely get there. Kova should have already gotten there but got screwed, I think he has enough years left to fix it.

Unfortunately when East-of-UK fighters took over 175 thru HW last time the mainstream (almost entirely western) boxing media tuned out, pretended those divisions didn't exist anymore and shifted all the heraldry to the lighter divisions.

Especially cruiserweights like Usyk etc in the may have to do exceptional things to get noticed. He is definitely not a "lock-in". Hell if Povetkin was American or British he would be an inevitable HoF'er.

She was from Kazakhstan and hates Ukranians for some reason.

Hey man, if you want to fight for G to be in the HOF as of today, don't let me stop you. This is an open thread
