And he'll probably get in too along with Arturo Gatti. If you go look at the names in the Boxing HOF you quickly begin to realize that all you really have to be is a name fighter in your era to get in and not necessarily a great fighter. It's a joke of a HOF.
Hamed, Benn for sure, Wonjongkam, Tapia maybe, Ward, Mayorga definitely not. Judah is the biggest waste of HOF talent of our generation. He had all the skills, but I don't think he has the resume.
You're right, but I'm betting he'll get in based soley on his trilogy with Gatti. It isn't right, but don't be surprised if it happens.
Johnny Tapia, damn I like that guy, a lot of excitement.....But was he sick in the head??? Just wondering..
^^^im really surprised that hamed got only 37% of the votes in the HOF. i thought he would make it the first year of eligibility.. maybe he'll qualify next time. but there is really no guarantee..his last two fights and early retirement hurt his image
i'm bias but,...... Zab "Super" Judah 2 division world champion, former undispiuted world champion, plus he dropped Mayweather, so thats gotta get you in right?....... other then him i'd say Tapia, and i've been watching some Benn fights this month and this guy is impressive, i'm still at the point where he's knocking out bums, but....still this ***** can really hit, so i can't say for sure since i aint seen his downfall yet but, i'd say he deserves a nod and Wonjongkam shouldn't even be mentioned really.....he's a typical padded record having, stay at home Thai fighter
