Early in his career he went to England and won a world title. From then on he was almost always a world champion. How many boxers spent so much of their career as a champion? He fought good fighters and only Pacquiao ever beat him. I think he will be in the hall of fame.
    Can't undo ****** decisions. Maybe they were they were legends when they fought ?

    Similar to QB's from the 70's and now. QBs of today makes those HOFers look silly stat wise. But back in the day, those QBs ''awesome''.

    If a person has to use the ''well that guy is in'' line, then you know said dude doesn't belong

    imho

      If the dude fought in a weak div/era (you can't blame a guy if the era is weak), he better had run the show.
      I honestly agree with you.

      I am all about grading resumes. And I don’t think he makes the cut.

          Dude wasn't famous (he did famously catch a gift W, though) and he never ran things.

            One of the most overrated fighters of the past 20 years. He had heart, but what did he do well? Speed and footwork were average, power was subpar, solid chin. He was just decent, but he'll get in based on his title reigns. He got those Top Rank checks and coasted.

              He isn't first ballot, he failed to make it on his first try this year, he might get in though in a few years.

              First ballot hall of famer is tough.

                I’d say he does, but all of the PAC haters will say no. No surprise there.

                  Yea but Bradley didnt fight danny nore canelo nore crawford. Yes khan got kod against 1 midcore fighter but the guy has been put up against way way tougher comp then Timothy Bradley. He beat judah, paulie, faded baby face, alexander, Kotelnik and a prime undefeated maidana just coming off a destruction of ortiz. For what it's worth I also thought he beat peterson too....how is Timothy's resume really any that much greater then Khan's? Somone explain this. Obviously if u have Bradley in the hall of fame u have to put khan there too.....

                      Of course he gets in look at his resume, cleaned up 140 then beat pac and Marquez who was coming off knocking out pac. The first pac fight was close it wernt no damn robbery, can count on 1 hands the amount of clean punches both landed
