    Out of these who do you think makes the HOF, who do you think can't make it and whos on the borderline:

    Sergio Martinez
    Miguel Cotto
    Glen Johnson
    Wlad Klit
    Vitali Klit
    David Haye
    Carl Froch
    Mikkel Kessler
    Pongsaklek Wongjongkam
    Ricky Hatton
    Luis Castillo
    Zab Judah
    Joel Casamayor
    Chris john
    Ivan calderon
    Toshiaki Nishioka

    Also if the handwrap scandal never happened how close do you think Margaritto would have had the chance of being considered

    The ones in Bold are in, the italic ones could make it but they still have things to do or are just a big maybe.

    I think Martinez, Johnson, the Klits, Froch, Hatton, Judah, Casamayor and Calderon will go in. Haye will only go in the British HOF, Froch might too but it depends how he's remembered when his career is over.

    I threw him in cause hes a big name, he did unify the cruiserweight division but his overall record so far isnt HOF worthy imo and i think his heavyweight resume is terrible to say the least so far.

    However if he beats one or both klits before retiring he will probably get in just of that

    had castillo got the decision over mayweather or what if glen had gotten all the close decisions that went against him. would that change peoples minds? or do they need the wins on paper :think

    if he beats the 2 most dominant HWs of the last decade that will be a massive achievement. he will be a p4p great

    Why do you think Calderon is a definite but not Cotto?
