    Fairly simple question. I say yes at this point on the strength of championships in two division, wins over Gabi, Pacheco, Maldonado, Kirilov, Mijares, Arce, a draw he deserved against Gorres, Perez. And the fact he's had countless exciting fights and great knockouts.

    I think he's got a very good case to be. I don't think he's a first ballot man, and I'm not certain he will be in. But I'd like to see it, personally.

    Yeah I agree. If he beats Agbeko (likely) and Mares (less likely) in rematches that would further solidify his case.

    Less likely? Vic beat Mares IMO. The decision in the Agbeko fight was good.
