    but as a guy who isn't PPV and never will be, its hard to argue against his case

    He's pretty damn close if not already.

    It's actually amazing. I think guys like Bradley and even Donaire will make the HOF based on resume if their successes continue to any relevant degree, but by the way forum goers discuss them you'd think that they are ordinary fighters sometimes.

    Bradley probably has a better resume than Wladimir Klitschko. Tough to hold the opinion Wladimir is a sure fire HOF'er and Bradley is nowhere close without admitting extreme Heavyweight bias.

    Tim Bradley is a joker. Poor crude manners to even mention it... even if he was eligible.

    Which I don't think he is. A dodgy decision over Pacquiao shouldn't be acknowledged, no ones entitled to be in the HOF. It's a selection process. A win over JMM is an achievement but that alone won't get you into the HOF.

    What else has he done that makes him an immortal? He needs to keep working if he wants to be remembered for the right reasons.

    he beat a 40 year old HOFer. so no he isn't.

    Brad is simply learning to sell himself, because his career lately has been so rickity that he HAS too or he will soon be forgotten. that's why he is coming out with **** like this. Sometimes if you say something outrageous enough times, some people start to believe it without any other effort put in.

    It seems like any time a guy strings 3 wins together these days, he's HOF material. No, not yet. Maybe in time. He needs to display a level of dominance and/or be a key player for a few years.
    I like Tim but he's not HOF material. Yet.

    don't worry they are free for you to suck if you want it that much, you odd person.

    but yeah froch doesn't run away from fights or defend against 40 year olds, and when he wins he really wins.

    No.

    IMHO he has two loses vs. Pac and vs. Ruslan and his head is getting even bigger since its full of delusional thoughts. Yes, he beat JMM, but that is his best win and at 40 years old...questionable.

    vs. Pac, HE KNOWs that he lost the fight. 99.99% of the world knows and are in agreement with Pac winning the fight.

    vs. Ruslan, he got help from the ref. He lost that fight as well.

    P4P #3? Fugg that!!!!!!!! He's record is inflated and must say x 2 defeats!

    You're opening question in this thread was: "Do you agree with this statement?" That and the ensuing responses to it was what my comments were based on.

    What I suspect has happened is that Tim has got a new PR agent who suggested he publically claim this. I don't think its a tim thing.

    Not so fast.

    Timmy should push his carrier all the way, before making these claims.

    I tried to make that point too, why so hasty? Let's look at his overall career 5 years from now.
