Is Josh Taylor a HOF

Just want to to throw this out there that Ray Mancini is in the hall of fame. I don't see why his resume is significantly better than Josh Taylors.

Am I missing something ?

 

Thats a fair point. I guess it isnt always about your resume. Arturo Gatti is in.

 

Froch is very similar in resume to Taylor. You can calm down now.

 

Crawford is obviously a much better fighter than Taylor (I think he is the number 1 talent in the sport) but that doesnt change the fact that Taylors road to undisputed was more difficult. Not Crawfords fault, as you can only fight the fighters who are in the weight class at the time, but that is the reality.

 

Yes. To be fair Bradley did legitimately beat Marquez who had knocked Pacquiao out so it was kind of like he won the belt legitimately

 

I guess we will have to see how Lopez and Catterall do for the rest of their careers to judge Taylors losses.

Maybe Teofimo Lopez becomes and ATG (already has 2 great wins and seems to have the talent) and maybe Catterall is better than people thought.

Also you bring up the Jack Catterall fight, which wasnt an official loss but rather a disputed win, but make no mention the Andre Dirrell fight in the case of Froch which many thought he lost. So yes, there resumes are in fact similar. Froch has more depth but was never undisputed like Josh Taylor.

 

Bradley was getting inducted into the Hall of Fame this weekend

 

Please calm down. You can answer these forums without being condescending.

 

Taylor lost 1 time officially with 1 controversial decision
Froch lost 2 times officially with 1 controversial decision
Taylor was 4 belt undisputed champion
Froch was unified champion
Froch has more depth but Taylor was undisputed. Something Froch was never able to do.
Both reached the end of the top 10 on the ring pound for pound list. If you put stock in that.

Its definitely closer than you are making it

 

I understand that. I guess the writers dont have as high standards for the Hall of Fame as the fans do
