    No.

    It's the hall of fame, not the 'hall of you did ok.'

    Respectable career, no doubt. But I surely can't see him getting in.

    He should be very proud of himself, its not something every boxer can accomplish but it isnt hof worthy.

    hes fringe

    i mean considering his age at when he won his first title, then the fact that he unified 3 of the 4 major belts

    he reigned for a good amount of time and made a decent number of defenses

    he was in exciting fights and had a likable style also he wasnt a full time fighter either

    Can't see him getting in. Would have liked to see him continue though; fights against Rios, Guerrero, and a Katsidis rematch would have been great to watch.

    The guy who got one-sided by Nate Campbell, then went life and death for 24 rounds with Paul Malinaggi?! He beat Julio Diaz and an old Freitas, calm down.
