    I constantly hear people saying that Donaire is a future HOF. I don't doubt that he will get in but is he deserving

    For his run near the top of the P4P list for about half a decade across multiple divisions, his resilience in winning some belts after bad defeats, and his last hurrah against Inoue, I'd call him deserving without a doubt. Never beat an all-time great, but that's alright. Still one of the defining lower weight fighters of his era.

    Rachel's husband is a shoe in. He has a few memorable runs at different periods of his career and a few KOs and Fights of the year from Ring. Imo he is deserving.

    Hell yes, he is making his record look worse ala Holyfield, but in his prime he was a beast!

    Remember what he did to Montiel's face?
