    Young Klit
    Haye
    Pavlik
    Williams


    are all doubtful first round HoF. They need more than a good winning percentage.

    First 5 and BHop are guaranteed in.

    All those in bold are for me guaranteed first ballot entries.

    The others need to do more.

    :good I agree with you regarding your choices, but I personally consider Vitali a definite first ballot entry and I also believe that Cotto will also end up in the hof.

    hmm I've been wondering with for a while, will Cotto be a hall of famer? In my opinion he should be considering he fought the best and has a a lot of impressive wins. any thoughts?

    Someone with 20 fights and no good wins is worthy of the HOF?

    I wouldn't say he is, to be honest.

    Granted he is a three time champ, but one of those reigns was the WBO..... and he is best known for a loss to Lewis.

    His resume is pretty bad for a HOF'er IMO, though that isn't all his fault in fairness.

    Cotto will probably get in based on his achievements to date.... by the time he packs in I'd expect a few very good names to be added to his slate.
