    Now that Shawn Porter has retired after a great career, is he Hall of Fame bound one day?

    He basically lost to every first tier opponent he faced.

    Of course he's HOF worthy. But getting into the HOF doesn't mean much. Sylvester Stallone got in, FFS.

    The four best, most elite opponents he fought, he lost to.

    That's a big no

    Stallone is in for a hugely different reason. And rightfully so.
