    I'd say Haye has got very little chance of getting in, if any at all.

    Fair enuf. I think he might because he's one of the best Cruiserweights of all time and won a Heavyweight strap.

    I'd say the Cruiserweight division has always historically been viewed as one not carrying that much credibility relative to others. Being a pretty new division it lacks any real boxing history too. It' not too hard to be one of the greatest of all time in a division that has a very limited history to it.

    It's one widely in the past been seen as a bit of a nothing division, one often skipped, without meaning too sound to harsh. It's most certainly not one that has strictly captured the public imagination and one in which its boxers have gained great fame through achievements in.

    Still things change. What was in yesterday or today, isn't necessary going to be so tomorrow eg the WBO was seen as a total joke of a belt in the 90s, today it's not seen in such a harsh light.

    If you had to choose one of them to be in the HOF now based on their current resume who would you choose?

    :lol:

    If Haye ever gets in the HOF (unless he makes a come back and gets some important wins) it'll be a sad day.

    It's possible he already is. Wins over Arreola, Grant, Goltoa, Gunn, Banks, Cunningham and Bell are not to be sniffed at.

    If he ever does win the HW title then yes he definitely will make it HOF because he will be the first to be a champ in LW, Crusier, and HW.

    We all watch boxing and certainly don't think Chambers wins easily, if he wins at all...
