I have an inkling that Wilder will be a hall of famer by the time he retires

harder to get a gassing fatboy klitschko opponent through an eye of a needle than a camel that's for sure.

 

Tony Galento is in the HOF despite being obese, never winning a title and having 20 losses.

 

doesn't really matter that he did anything tangential, what really matters is whats the reason he is in?

 

I don't know.

Perhaps because he was an opponent of Joe Louis? To make Louis seem greater?

 

Tony Galento isn't in any Hall of Fame. Not International or the more liberal(everyone gets in) World.

Get the hell out of here.

He was a good fighter though when motivated. Powerful left hook, strong chin, could bob and weave well enough. Dirty as hell on the inside. Knocked out quite a few contenders. Dangerous opponent comparable to Tua but with a mean streak.

 

Joe Louis opponents in the International Hall of Fame:

Rocky Marciano
Ezzard Charles
Joe Walcott
Billy Conn
Max Schemling
Max Baer
Jack Sharkey
Jimmy Bivins
JJ Braddock

They all deserve it too.

 

hey freedom, you were inventing BS. Try not to in future. that is the cowardzaghe way.

 

What do you based this off of?

 

Don't overestimate that inkling.

 

I'd say b/c Haymon has a flagrant way of hiding fighters he's representing.:nono

It's one thing to move a fighter away from a certain fight in order to present him with a bigger fight for more $$$$$.....

It's destructive to a fighters legacy, their long term credentials when you duck a big fight for big money to fight a shiit fight for shiit money.:think

 

Since he hit while he Charlie was down.. Yea, but Charlie ran out of the ring though lol.. He might've been dq'd first

 

LOL!

How old is Wilder now?

At the pace that he is fighting weak opposition, I don't he will even become a unified champion.

 

Yeah, but he knocked down Joe Louis.... Wilder knocked down Charlie Zelenoff

 

We have been told over and over on here how this Heavyweight Era is so awful so how on earth can he become a HOFer even if he succeeds? :huh

 

I will agree with this post title IF he knocks Stiverne out flat within a few rounds. A big if,should be interesting while it lasts.
