Usyk
Canelo easily a first ballot hall of famer
Fury
I also believe Joshua and Wilder both will get in. Deservedly or not

Agreed. I'd add Tyson Fury. Can't ignore his achievements any longer. I tried, as I wasn't a fan for most of his career.

Canelo, Lomachenko, Donaire, for sure.

Usyk, Crawford, Joshua, Fury more than likely.

I didn't know either, so I googled it.
It seems Women have their own hall of fame....

Taylor, Serrano and Shields must be shoo-ins when they retire.

For some reason I thought he was already in (not sure why), just checked and he isn't yet.

So yeah, add Chocolatito to the list definitely.

I’m pretty sure you need to be retired 5 years before you can be inducted.

Canelo
GGG
Chocalito
Usyk
Loma

I think inoue is on his way. As is Crawford. Probably spence. Bivol has a good chance.

Joshua I have a hard time seeing in there. Same with wilder.

Inoue probably isn't too far off, three division titlist and unified at bantamweight, 23-0 etc etc. Plenty more to come from him of course. Donaire, Canelo, GGG, Gonzalez, Bud look certainties to me, Loma too.

Spence and Taylor not a million miles away already, Kovalev might have an outside chance?

Yeah I realize that now, I've obviously got him confused with someone else.

As I say, HOF career for sure

Yeah it’s 3 years now. Changed in 2019.

The last few inductees all had bouts within the five year window.
