    Not a first ballot HOF'er like Cotto, but Tim deserves to be there.

    His resume at 140 is stacked, i don't know if it's enough, though. In this day and age, who knows how much or how little you need to get in.
    Did he ever hold a lineal tilte? Or was that what the Khan fight was supposed to be for?

    If Tszyu made it, why shouldn't Bradely?

    he beat all the names and champs that were about at 140 apart from khan and moved up and had a good run but he could have got a few better names at welter

    its shocking that he is just still alive after that beating he received during the Ruslan Provodnikov fight.

    Surviving and winning that fight alone earns him the HOF award.

    He'll make it. Being a class act doesn't hurt his case either.

    He sure got a gift when he was given a decision against Pac.....................Vegas judges are criminals..............

    Provodnikov beat the hell out of Bradley, had his slurring his speech, yet the criminal Vegas judges gave that fight to Bradley! They hate Eastern European fighters............

    From what I've seen over the years, most folks had it as I did to Bradley by 1 point. If they had it to Provo, it too was by 1 point. Not a controversial decision.

    Slippery slope that one.
    Tszyu at least had fame, Bradley did not. (relatively speaking)
