    Now he won
    154 WBC interem belt against Bunema
    160 WBC/ WBO Middleweight Belt against Pavlik
    160 WBC Middleweight Belt against Williams
    160 WBC Middleweight Belt against Dzinziruk
    160 WBC Middleweight Belt against Barker

    Now he had some Robberies along the way Cintron was a huge one.

    Since he won a Belt at 154 and Unified at 160 but i feel he could Unify the whole division and then if he to fight and beat Sturm then like i said win a Belt against someone at 168 i couldnt see why he would not get in.

    But as for names he hasnt got a huge name or even a HOF on his record.

    He should fight Sturm then Cotto then i feel some one like Ward.

    2 quality wins should get him in (Sturm & Cotto for example). A lot of you guys are greatly exaggerating the criterias for getting into the hall. "He needs 10 more years" , "Beat Mayweather& Ward& Cotto", are you even serious? There is still a difference between being the hall and being an ATG. There might be an outside chance he gets in at this point already, if he can maintain the status of the best MW in the world for another 2 years.

    He could start by fighting a few middleweight contenders

    Beat Floyd and Canelo at 154 then unifiy 160, make a few defenses, move to SMW or LHW and win a world title.

    Well if that fighter is so small why isnt he fighting his next opponent at a more suitable weight like 135 then???
    Why did that small fighter face a bigger fighter than Martinez and also has a win over Martinez??
