Trying to get away from the normal flaming and bashing on the site.
Everyone has a fighter they love but doesn't get enough respect in their own opinion. Make a case for a fighter that you don't think will make it into the HOF.
Mine is Yves Edwards. 17 career submissions. 17 career T(KOs). Cleaned out the division at a time when there was no champion and I feel could have competed with Pulver and BJ at the time. Tied with BJ, Joe Stevenson, and Melvin Guillard for the most lightweight wins in UFC history at 10. If he retires with that record, which I think he will, I'd easily have him in the hall. That said, I don't think he was ever a big enough star or had a following big enough for them to put him in.
So, who would you like to see make the hall of fame but probably won't and why?
