    Arturo Gatti, Barry McGuigan, Ingemar Johansson, jimmy braddock, Danny Lopez, Ken Norton, Jess Willard, etc

    plenty of underserving chumps who were never close to greatness are, somehow, in the Hall of Fame

    Broner will join their ranks, probably

        He got a blatant gift against Ponce de Leon btw

        those scorecards were ***ed up

        and PDL was like 2 or 3 weight classes below him

        that fight made me realize Broner was a hypejob

          he probably will make the HOF

          why don't people accept that the HOF, and ATG... are two different things

          you can compare Broner to Gatti

          but you simply cannot compare Broner to Pacquiao

          meaning that a (often) grand-canyon size gap exists between the two

          casual-fans cannot see that... but boxing heads know...

            His best win is Malignaggi for crying out loud, with his best performance being against Demarco. He got a gift vs PDL as someone already stated and lost all his fights against people considered near the top. He also lost that Jessie Vargas fight but was given the draw.

            The sad thing is having said all that he will probably get in, which is a shame

              nah, that happened years back

              people tried to say that Gatti lowered the bar, but it even happened way before him

              there is a clear difference between a HOF'er, and a genuine ATG

              there will be thousands of HOF'ers... there are likely less than a hundred genuine ATG's...

              as the HOF expand their list... the list of ATG's will become more refined

              Broner likely is a HOF'er... but he is not a ATG

                    You don’t need to give a troll response on that
                    Thank you for posting that very thing. Great post green sent your way. GGG was irrelevant to the thread but somehow some people dont understand the point in this website.

                      Sorry to burst your bubble, but having a movie about you doesn't make you great

                      Braddock was a one hit wonder that got stomped by Joe Louis

                      and his "wonder" wasn't exactly that great either

                      Max Baer had 7 previous losses and didn't even train for Braddock.

                      The upset was considered huge just because everyone considered Braddock a scrub and thought he was gonna get iced easily by the hard punching Baer
