Been in some good fights has a few decent wins but no.
It’s rather unlikely, but if he were to beat Mikaelian again and then somehow beat Opetaia he’d be worthy of enshrinement in my opinion. But not as his record stands today.

Badou Jack vs world title winning opposition:
W vs Anthony Dirrell MD 12
W vs George Groves SD 12
W vs Lucian Bute DQ 12 (originally a robbery draw, then Bute was DQ’d for PEDs)
D vs James Degale MD 12 (robbery)
W vs Nathan Cleverly TKO 5
D vs Adonis Stevenson MD 12
L vs Jean Pascal SD 12 (robbery)
W vs Ilunga Makabu TKO 12
W vs Noel Mikaelian MD 12
Titles won:
WBC 168 (3 successful defenses, robbed in his unification attempt)
WBA 175* (no defenses, vacated to challenge for the WBC/lineal title against Adonis Stevenson instead)
WBC 200 twice (0 defenses 1st reign, stripped, reinstated, 1 defense and counting 2nd reign)
I don’t think he’s a Hall of Fame guy at this point. If he were to beat Mikaelian again and then successfully unify at cruiserweight, then yeah.
*Technically he won the WBA secondary belt while Andre Ward had the primary; Ward then retired which elevated Jack to primary champion. He was then ordered to defend against inteirm champion Bivol, but took the Stevenson fight instead. So in the span of two days Bivol was promoted from tertiary champion to secondary champion to primary champion while Jack when from secondary to primary to stripped.
