    I wouldn't argue for or against it. Borderline HOF , but not a lock. He was very talented at 140.

    And the Chavez result was a draw. Most people though he won that but i had it even. Chavez is pretty underrated.

    No, just no.
    Timothy did not have a hall of fame career to be honest.
    Great fighter measured against most of his contemporaries,
    but at the same time, very few of them are gonna make it in
    either.

    Then again, Gatti got in so who knows.

    You actually have to be famous... kidding.

    I'm not familiar with who is currently in there but I'd set my standards pretty high. Bradley is a really good fighter but i wouldn't consider him great. He's most likely getting the hall of fame.

    I have a relatively strict criteria personally.
    Prior to the Canelo fight, many said Cotto is definitely a HOF'er, I disagreed and said he was borderline. It was his performance against Canelo (an even fight, where I had this past prime Cotto actually winning 115-113) that has won me over and he to me is a HOF'er for sure.
    I feel Bradley only needed someone like Danny Garcia and someone like Shawn Porter to make it.

    Agree with the 115-113 but thought it was for Canelo personally

    90% of this forum wasn't even following boxing during the time Bradley was fighting the likes of Nate Campbell. :hang

    I would say no but won't protest if he gets in. A solid boxer with a career to be proud of. Hope he has a happy retirement

    Not a great fighter. Shouldn't Hall of Fame be for great fighters?
