    Ducked Crawford for years then got his pants pulled down in a one sided beating when he finally did fight him.

    Should have rematched Porter, knocked Mikey Garcia out and put up a better effort against Bud after trolling him for the best of 5 years with all this Big fish talk he was milking his fans with.

    No unless he does big things at 154

    People here don't realize how many people actually got in the hall of fame. Just look at the list. Be for real

    Spence will get in. I think he needs to beat at least 1 champ at 154 to be included, but in reality he's done enough based on the actual credentials. Even Ray Moncini is in lol

    I despise Bradley but he had a far superior resume.
    Heck, even managed to "beat" Pacquiao.

    Bradley would have been brutally stopped by a Spence

    No. Bradley was as durable as one can be. Also, he could have beaten Spence IMO. Not to mention the fact that if someone like Porter can push Spence so hard that they arguably get robbed then Bradley can easily do the same.

    And besides, It doesn´t matter if Spence would have beaten him. Fact is that Bradley had the superior resume, thus the HOF inclusion.
    Cotto is in the hall of fame, but Trout will never be.
    Mosley easily made it into the HOF but Vernon Forrest didn´t get to share that honor.

    Dude, what vendetta do you have against Bradley? Yeah, he's a bit of a knob and is pretty awful on commentary, but he took a lot of risks in his career, fought the best, and gave fans a couple great fights. Can Errol do more to stop him than Provodnikov or Holt, who both dropped and hurt him only for him to use his survival instincts and rally back to beat both men? If Manny Pacquiao failed to stop him in 36 rounds then I don't see what chance Errol has.

    Manny Pacquiao failed to stop Avocado Algieri, Spence iced him in how many rounds?

    Errol Flynn? Sure. He looked very fit in tights (no homo).

    Pac dropped Algieri 6 times in 12 rounds, Bradley only went down twice against Pac, both in the 3rd fight across 36 rounds. Algieri's chin was cracked when he fought Errol. Agieri was 1-2 in his last three and arguably should have lost to Provodnikov, he also never had the sturdiest chin in the first place, so it doesn't prove a lot to say Errol slumped him, especially when Bradley had a better chin and much better defence.
