    Bradley is already a top 10 P4P in my list and is above Khan P4P wise resume wise but they do need each other to jump into that Superstar echelon.

    Kotelnyk already did that. Schooling Devon doesn't make you great.

    To be fair to him, his body of work is the best at his weight, he's a well rounded fighter who's constantly improving and on his way to being complete. Fights every opponent differently and has a Holyfield-esque will (and headwork, lol) That's P4P material in my book.

    We've got only a couple of young/active fighters today who are potential HOFer's/ATG'S and Bradley's one of them IMO.

    Khan for me
    Froch as well but I think the jump will be bigger for Khan

    If Froch emerges victorious after the super 6 then he will be considered great in my eyes

    However, imo people are making to much of Martinez's victory over Williams. Yes it was an amazing one punch KO. But that is all it was, one punch does not automatically render you a top fighter.

    Lucian Bute. He is elite, but he will prove himself to back it up.
