Of the Current Active Fighters, Who is a LOCK for the Hall of Fame?

Tim Bradley man......out of all the Welterweights in the world beside the sure HOF of FMJ and Pac he is the only one who keeps on blabbering about getting inside the Halls.
"Hall of fame man........with Pacquiao in my resume already Marquez would be my ticket to get at that shot, and the prize money would just be the cherry on that cake." And many more with Elite fighters such as Vargas, Undefeated Devon Alexander, Undefeated Lamont Peterson.
Besides Pacquiao, Bradley is my favorite fighter man, humble and has a heart of a champion. Bradley is a REAL champion man, overcoming so many obstacles on the way in.

If you look at who is actually in the Hall of Fame, you'll see it's not the very best of the best.
It's whomever guys like Dan Rafael choose to vote for. If the question was who should get in the hall of fame, I would only pick Manny and Klitschko, but as for who will, I think somewhere between 10-15 active fighters have already done enough.
It's not a very selective process.

Ward needs the Kovalev win in my opinion.
Kovalev needs the Ward win and other credible wins as well.
Golovkin obviously needs more on the resume.
I would say Donaire gets in.
Roman Gonzalez probably already gets in as well- 4-division champion with some names on his ledger- Cuadras being one of the better names.
I don't see Rigo in just yet. He's got more to prove yet. I hope he does so.
Too early for Crawford.
Too early for Canelo.
Cotto, I think, is borderline. He fought lots of great fighters, but how many did he actually beat is the question for me on that one.
Wladimir of course, will get in and rightfully so.
Stevenson may, but I don't know. I think he needs Ward or Kovalev to get in.
Salido may but I really can't be sure. I think it's very close.
Any thoughts?

Wlad, Pac, Cotto (id say borderline, but with the IBHOF standards he is a lock), Gonzalez. If Hopkins has one more bout then him aswell.
Bradley will probably get in, but i never really saw him as a HoF type fighter. What achievements does he really have? Some good wins no doubt but nothing that really rings out.

As much as people may laugh at me Broner 4 division champ wins over Ponce Deleon and Demarco and a few former champs plus he's a better fighter than a few guys already in like Mcguigan and Gatti.
