    Gatti had a personality and was loved by both Fans and media.
    You think Broner going off on Jim Gray the way he did after the Pacquiao fight is gonna help his cause for getting into the Hall of Fame??

      More like the Hall of Shame.

        yes if he didnt fight any guy who might beat him he would prob be undefeated, hes right. He would get ripped to shreds on every boxing site, the streets may disown him for being a coward, he would have much less cash but he would have his 0 and lots of threads over the years, much like golovkin maybe

          He can fight Thurman. Thurman looked shot in there. Broner could get a UD

            Danny Garcia isn't a Hall of Famer either.
            I think it'll be very hard for Broner to get into the Hall of Fame cause aside from his record against top competition he isn't very well liked by the media and boxing experts.
            The way he went off on Jim Gray after the Pacquiao fight was uncalled for and unacceptable!
            He really is his own worst enemy...
            I agree and you may be on to something. Adrien Broners antics inside and outside of the ring could very well cost him some pivotal votes among the BWAA who are responsible for inducting Boxing Hall of Fame nominees.

              Lol again, i agree, broner does not deserve to be in, just saying, can't ignore the credentials. HOF usually rewards things like the youngest 4 div champ ever. I say again, I AGREE he does not deserve to get in lol.

                That's exactly where he belongs!
                IDK why Broner keeps getting showcased on Showtime..??
                I know he brings ratings but there comes a time when you gotta put your foot down and say enough is enough! Great NFL players are getting cut by teams cause they hold their athletes to a certain standard and if they misbehave then they are released from the team no matter how good a player he is...
                It's about time Showtime does the same with Broner! I

                  If Broner conducted himself more professionally and carried himself with class then I would say he has a chance... But he's garbage and acts too childish and doesn't deserve it.
                  If I was on the commission that voted Hall of Fame inductees then I would always deny him entree...

                    Ab is a genius, if he'd never fought he'd be undefeated too.

                      And midget Pac fighting much bigger future HOF guys. War Mikey!!!
