    As of this moment, no.

    He's one of my favorite fighters today, and the 2-1 edge in arguably the greatest boxing trilogy of all-time (against another man who is just short of HOF status), the 2 wins over Larios, the win over Gonzales. If Izzy puts some more good wins together he could one day get in, but he's not there right now.

    Not sure if they'll give it to him. If he goes to 126 and wins one more belt there, he's a sure fire HOF.

    Not yet, but a couple of more quality wins should put him in that category. He's just barely found his spot in the limelight due to his recent victories over rafa marquez and those were rafas only fights at 122. Had he come around a little bit sooner and defeated MAB or Erik Morales at jr feather then there would be no question. If he can unify the titles against juanma and caballero then I think he could be a shoe-in for the HOF.

    He's pretty close, but I think he's out at this point. A lack of a whole lot of good wins outside of Marquez and Larios really hurts. If he can unify or get a belt at 126, he has an argument.

    yes, no doubt. vasquez is THE champ at 122 lbs, and has been involved in one of the best trilogies in the sport. also the hall of fame need as many recognizable names in there to draw in money for their annual inductions. if they have jokers there like ingemar johanson, vasquez vertainly deserves a place.
