    There's zero chance Broner would get into the HOF. Ottke has a better chance.

    Ottke-Calzaghe deserve the HOF for maintaining peace between the Isles & the Fatherland, 21 mirror consecutive title defenses at 168

    Broner is still active, he can easily get into the HOF by winning one big upset fight, that upset win on top of his early career 4 division championship will be the icing on the cake. Broner took over our mind-attention (Broner outdid the hyped-nerds in valleys and alpines who are wasting resources to get that attention...), that is why we are discussing the very important Adrien Broner on thread of the less important GRJ, you can't buy legitimacy

    If Broner is waste, he is high-value Elite waste...Not a day goes without plenty of people fire up neurons in their minds and ponder About Billions and Broner

    This GRJ.
    He has always done this. His recent talk of "wanting to fight more often/everyone is ducking me" was shocking to me. It´s straight up BS.
    Years ago, before GRJ faced Loma, he was offered numerous fights, including Ponce De Leon. What did Russell do back then? Said the exact same things as now and moved on.
    Everyone always were below him. Even Loma. He said it before that fight. But he could not help himself getting a title shot off a guy who was 1-1 and had just lost to Salido.

    What did surprise me was Russell taking a fight with Gonzales. That was a genuine surprise. But in hindsight, I think it had more to do with Haymon pushing for it that anything else.

    Russell is a fraud. A talented mother****er but still a fraud.

    At least he stepped up and made for intriguing fights.
    Russell talks **** while ducking everyone of note.

    True.
    I think he is mentally broken tho. Definitely gunshy.

    However, It´s not like Russell hasn´t been offered money. That dude is something else.
