Only time will tell. But did you see Franklin's face when Dana was telling Hughes he was the best champ eva. Franklin looked like someone killed his dog.

Hughes-Yes, but at this point I don't know about Ace. I like him a lot and he's a great fighter but he hasn't done a WHOLE lot in the UFC, yet. And i think The Spider may just take his belt.

Neither of these fighters really deserve to be in the HOF. Good fighters, yes. Hall of Famers, I think not. Compare to Gracie and Couture

The Hall Of Fame isn't about what you've done compared to the guys who are already in it, it's about what you've personally done in your own career and in the sport, not compared to what others have done. Hughes will be in for sure, it'll be a few more years before we'll be able to tell if Rich will get in or not.
And Hughes beat Gracie anyway.
