His record, title history and longevity speak for themselves. Though he has never dominated the way in which others have, notably Labratory, HTF and now Fatny, he has been a legitimate top 5 fighter for as long as I can remember, going back to the old graphics and throughout all the changes and developments that the game game has subsequently undergone. I also believe he has helped shape online boxing into what it is today. Not many will remember, but he more or less pioneered the hit and move style of boxing that is so popular today, and for a long time it was only me and him who utilized the body jab effectively. He taught me how to throw that punch and for a period the two of us were almost unbeatable. Of course others followed in our footsteps, but the point is that Tyrant was the first and I don't think he's ever been given credit for that. He's paid he dues, and I think it's time he was rewarded. I'm sure others will agree.

personally i don't think he should be in HOF, no disrespect but i don't think he is good enough to be in there.

If someone was going to be put in the HOF it should be you sugarray.

Tyrant has trained lots of great fighters notably HTF (HOFer) and hes been a great fighter/mentor since the game started a good attitude he has my vote for sure.

You might just.

If Tyrant has done these things that Ray and Skillz have said he has done, i think he should be in. I've rarely seen him play but when i did, he rocked. Soo yeah Tyrant for HOF ftw

I have alot of respect for Tyrant.... Hes a class act.. I mean I have nothing bad at all to say about him. He showed me alot about the game also showing me how to be smart and out box people instead of fighting crazy and just throwing bombs. On top of that he belived in me and knew I could make it to the top.


Tyrant is good enough. But hes never had down time ... What I mean by that the man has a busy life outside of onlineboxing.net

Not that the former and current greats dont have a life its just in this game you have to be active and Tyrant was never active enough IMHO to get his timing perfect and range, and I dont mean 2 fights per day. Lets be honest people who have dominated have had the time to sit down and on just off the top of my head fight atleast 10+ fights perday on average!!


ive always told Tyrant hes had the skills just never fought as much. If you were around when Tyrant would win titles and things he was more of a regular then he has been in the last year or so.


Thats my theory and i'll back it up with evidence. Prime example JT(Jermain Taylor)! Jermain was good then he just exploded to the top and did well for awhile. But during his time at the top he was fighting alot and I mean alot. This is not the only example but its just one that comes to mind.


I love Tyrant and it would be a honor to have such a player in the HOF

I support this cause. Tyrant is HOF material.

A class act who has won titles.

- OB Accounts: Rocky Marciano plus too many alts

- Join Date: 2007

- Status: Retired for now. Logs on every now and then just to troll.

- OB Class: A+++++ Elite and yes you got it right a FIVE STAR Elite.

- Goals: Been there, seen that, done it all so none other than reaching 1000 fights (on an alt) with above 90% win percentage I have been hunting after ever since joining OB2D.

- Titles won: too many to remember

- Title defenses: too many to remember

- Best win streak 132 wins in a row in total.

- Style: Very technical when needed to. Other than that force ko for the win!

- Signature Punch: The Rocky Marciano combo (now also available without french fries).

- Signature Taunt: Letting opponent recover back to full healt before KOing him for good.

- Weakness: Fatny, the king of OB2D

- Career highlights: Been there and done it all but yes there is one little thing that rises above all titles and such: making Reaper quit after I tkoed him 16 times in a row all inside first two rounds. We were supposed to box 100 times

- Quotes: "I just TKoed you 16 times in a row Reaper. What's the matter? Can not make is past first two rounds? Did I make you quit? Why so silent all of sudden? Oh I just made you STFU "

- Stupid nickname given by other players: Mini Fatny.

- Words of wisdom: Styles make fights. Sometimes even HOF caliber fighters lose to inferior boxers due to this fact. Everyone has their rythm and once you get inside that rythm, you will make life hell for that person (in the ring).

- PS. All signatures are stupid.

I'd also like to make it clear if given the chance i'll give my HOF status up for Tyrant. I'd be honored for him to take my spot.

very respectible act HTF u both deserve spots so i have an idea.....Every year maybe in the summer or around xmas time mikkel should have a OB HOF inductees like 2-3 a year to the HOF and if it were to start now the inductees would be Tyrant and Fatny (if 3 i would vote for sugarray) just an idea of course but it would be pretty cool it would make ur chances that much greater for HOF instead of next to impossible like it is now.

I remember the day I fought Tyrant for the 1st time..back in 2006...

He decked me and when I had my ass on the canvass...I looked up...and could see him doing the INFAMOUS point taunt.


CLASSIC...

From that moment, I started to use that as my taunt too...and also the little bow and prayer at the start of each round!


I would like to see him in the HOF for sure!

Wow. Quite generous guys. HTF you're going to freakin' put me in tears little Grasshopper.

I would love to be in the HOF, but I do understand the quality it takes to get in. I have always felt I was a cut above Streetbully and right there with Greg Haugen to be honest. It is what it is.

Thank you for your kind words all. Thank you for your respect HTF. You have always had mine (though I hated how my student I used to pick on and "pad" my record off of surpassed me 10x...lol). Hah. You deserve it.

I feel sugarray should have been in there already. Dominant as long as HTF? No. But only a select few can say they have been Undisputed and/or Super Champ of Onine Boxing.

Sugarray was the first Undisputed Champion of Online Boxing.

Sugarray was the first Super Champion of Online Boxing.

Sugarray began that trend and carried himself well.

If there was a 3 a year system, Sugarray definitely...

MEMBER SINCE = Feb 2003
OB CHAMPIONSHIPS = Numerous
RECORD: 3761-1464-101 (3157 KOS)
EXPERIENCE = Throwing body jabs since 2003
STATUS = Officially Retired (2014)
TOUGHEST OPPOSITION: Larry Holmes, Sugarray, Here To Fight, Salvador-Sanchez/El Terrible Morales, Labratory, Mike Tyson, M.A.Barrera
FAVORITE OPPONENT: Sugarray
LOCATION = U.S.
FIGHTINGSTYLE = Defensive Counter Puncher
SIGNATURE PUNCH = Long Body Jab
SIGNATURE COMBO = Lean back jab->long uppercut
OB CLASS = Maybe one day second ballot HOF'er
