How many are really worthy? I don't know. But to put Timothy Bradley in the H.O.F, lowers the standards. Tank is a H.O.Fer right now, according to that logic. Adrian Broner. Mikey Garcia. Danny Garcia. Shakur Stevenson. Vasiliy Lomachencko. There's a lot of guys who have won belts in multiple divisions and wouldn't be considered H.O.F. Great? Yes, of course. But H.O.F? Everyone would agree, only one of those aforementioned names deserves it, if their careers ended today.

Loma is getting up there in age but a guy who will box with him vs try to outwork him or use their size is right up his alley so unless hes gotten a lot older I think its an easy win for him. And if kambosas even wins then what, people will just rightfully speculate it is due to loma's timing declining with age. Does anyone really see kambosas beating loma prime for prime with their style match up? probably no one.

Apparently people like Broner has a chance nowadays
At least with Bradley, he was sorta justified with two hall of fame scalps on his record.
Now anyone with "entertainment value" could potentially be inducted like Broner, a 4-division champ but will likely get inducted for his post-fight interviews

When you end your argument with "it's not a bad resume", you kind of answer your own question. I don't think "not a bad resume" is qualification for the HALL OF FAME. Which one of those fighters that he beat was truly great, and not well past their prime? Name one.

One fight and he's back in with Loma.
I don't think 'talk more than fight' applies to him. He did the thing that no-one does.

It's a big accomplishment in itself if he legitimately beats Loma. First two Loma losses were close and he just straight up got robbed against hankey
