    Even if u dont see him as an ATG, he should be going straight into the HOF.

    dominant lhw for years, great ko percentage, beat 1 atg hofer. robbed against another hofer, has been continously beating top 10-15 fighters for the last 6years. takes belts from peoples backyards, makes defences in peoples backywards. scary power in his prime, reinvents his style due to power and stamina loss. still holds lhw belt at 36.

    now im going to go through the HOF and compare other fighters who havent accomplished as much and present them to you. im sorry but i cant an old mans opinion on current boxing seriously it doesnt matter how knowledgable they are, they all have this 'it was better my day'' agenda when really alot of these so called great fighters, were defending against fighters with losing records, or fighting people no one has ever heard off or can remember. all Kovalevs rights are ready and available to watch online,his record against top 1-15 lhw fighters is very good. all these fighters had something about them.

    what hofer do you see in modern boxing now?? what does it take for you? whats youre criteria??? ey ey ey ey ey.

    This. Calling Kovalev an ATG would be putting him on the same level as Archie Moore, Michael Spinks, Roy Jones, Billy Conn, etc.., which is crazy.

    Then Spinks and Jones are close

    No way is Kovalev currently as finished as DLH v Pac and SRL v Camacho. More like Leonard against Norris, but probably more like Leonard v. Lalonde.

    Doesn't he have an assault case still? He's not getting in the hof if he doesn't beat that charge. Try to imagine selecting him over Donald Curry after he's convicted of beating the **** out of a woman.

    i thought the hall of fame was based on what you do in the ring not out of it. many nasty people in the HOF. Donald Curry is in the HOF by the way lol.
