    Think about it..his best win is Oscar,and after that...who did he really beat??

    a shot Vargas??a shot Mayorga??he had a nice record at lightweight but none of those cats really stand out...so is he a a hall of famer?

    :lol: at the multiple choice poll and Post Box picking both yes and no.

    Thanks for the laugh, good sir.

    To the TS, in future, multiple choice polls in these type of questions don't really go well.

    Really? We need a poll for this ****?

    Mosley is an ATG, he was ranked P4P number 1 at his peak! Jesus christ.

    If you didn't see the man at LW, he was amazing, he climbed two weight classes and beat a Prime DLH, he took on the much avoided Vernon Forrest and Winky Wright twice, and did not attempt to pad his record and bank account with Stiffs.

    He Beat Vargas twice, and knocked out Mayorga, both solid durable opponents. He even KO'd Iron jawed Margarito when the Boxing world was fearing for Shane's safety (I won alot of money on that fight :D )

    Haliday, Collazo, Molina, Leija and Golden Johnson are good wins too.

    On achievements and accomplishments, for sure, first ballot. He had a Duran-like career, albeit a poor man's version.

    Admitting he used PEDs in his career I don't think he should be inducted though.

    Yes, although he's not an all-time great.
