Yeah, showed big heart and that his power is dangerous even in zombie mode, but these are rather about respect, strictly looking at the result, a knockout loss and the beating presuming that will hardly catapult his career to some higher echelon.I don’t get it either, wilder took one of the biggest beatings in boxing history, he took a straight beating for 5 rounds straight and got knocked out.
Ron Lyle is an atg cause he knocked Foreman down and lost a slugfest for the ages? Is he even a HOF? You know the answer... Lyle is still a boxer many remember to, fondly so, because he was an absolute warrior but that doesn't make someone a HOF-er, let alone an atg. The only exception that comes to mind is Gatti who might have gotten into the HOF rather based on popularity than merits but that is controversial to this day and is used as a reference point in debates about who's HOF and who's not.
I can understand why too, I'm sure even most of the ppl who say Gatti shouldn't be on there liked him as a fighter but the voting board done fukked up there.
