Should Jerry Quarry be in the HOF?

[DaxxKahn]

I would vote yes, Jerry fought in the HW divisions golden era, he has quality wins, people tend to forget that in that particular era the CONTENDERS were heads above the champions of most any other era....

Jerry holds wins over guys like Floyd Patterson, first man to beat Ron Lyle, Earnie shavers to name a few,...he was a top notch fighter with huge heart

Also he was a big part of that eras history...

People tend to forget that the HOF is not just for champions and not only for the truly elite...The HOF is for fighters who gave to the sport more then others...Jerry gave all he had....He was in some important bouts...It is about fighters who played important parts of history...Jerry fit those criteria

Not disagreeing with this but are there any Hall of Fame fighters who didn't win a world title? I'm talking post war here, not great black fighters like Sam Langford who never got a title shot in the old days on account of their colour.

I understand what you are saying mate...was not referring to your post with mine just saying in general people tend to think that...

I had actually tackled that topic in my top 25 list in the top 100 of all time thread...When I put Sam Langford in my top 10 of all time
