Absolutely not.He's just not good enough.His best wins were against Haugen,who actually beat him once.ALL of his other "name" victories were against shot fighters.You want to count a victory over late 40's shot Duran when said Duran almost beat him?Induct Kirkland Laing and Pat Lawlor while you're at it.Duran was a lot younger when he lost to them.If he gets in,the HOF loses a lot of credibilty.A lot.
Yeah sad to say I think you are right. Neither Czyz or Pazienza belong in the hall. I suppose the hall of fame speaks for itself who gets in though. They only have so many spaces each year, so the better fighters will get in before the not so good, so if a guy gets in usually they were voted in fairly. The question is, does a guy like Pazienza beat someone like Curry? Was Curry Hall of Fame for that matter. I would say no.
Thanks for the replies guys...as I said, I was on the fence a bit. Good to hear from both sides of the arguement.
ok as for donald currry belonging,i would say yes.Although he was never the same after he fought honeyghan,he still had a couple more good wins and won a jm title,but id put him in cause he was a true elite fighter at welter,i remember people arguing who was pound for pound curry or hagler? Thats how good he was!His prime didnt last as long as it should have but if a prime curry were fighting today people would be arguing whos better pacman ,mayweather or curry
