    Hell no, his best wins are a smaller man in Shane Mosley and a wash-uped Felix Trinidad...

    Hell no? Lol. A washed up Trinidad? Lol. Trinidad clearly wasnt washed up when he fought wright. Trinidad was coming off from destroying a smaller Mayorga and tito a washed up as you say was a big favorite to beat wright who was moving up in weight. You can make a case trinidad was past his prime but washed up? Ktfo

    He's borderline, but I'd probably barely vote yes.

    No ****ing doubt he is, greatest 154 pounder of his generation and was also robbed blind of the Unified middleweight title.

    he accomplished a lot but his ability is still far more than his accomplishments show. was pretty stubborn in contract negotiations which probably cost him a few big fights. had a rematch with taylor, fight with pavlik, etc.

    but i still say yes.

    i agree he belongs in the hall. i've always been a big winky fan. but "robbed blind" wouldnt apply to that fight. coulda gone either way. also, he was offered big money for a rematch and didnt take it.
