    Combing through the record books to find its absolute weakest historical links to try and make a case for why a modern fighter should be considered is a great way to take away whatever credibility is left of boxings HOF.

    The title ''King of the Gypsies'' holds infinitely more weight and prestige than being a ''Hall of Famer'' or the GOAT and Tyson ''The Gypsy King'' is the lineal successor to Bartley ''King of the Gypsies'' Gorman who is both a distant relative of mine and Tyson's.

    'King of the Gypsies' is not a title that is simply inherited. Staffordshire-based bareknuckle fighter Bartley Gorman did his way - in his own words, "it is a title earned in blood, snot, sweat and gore"

    But this is real fighting men talk, not little boys playing little boy's games in the playground.

    NOT YET to Fury being in the hall of fame. He has a chance, but needs more wins over top ten opponents.

    people might not like it but he beat wladimir in germany with an almost 10 year championship reign so that will get him in easily.
