    boxrecs rankings are done by a computer on a point scale. Since Pacquaio is has the most points of anyone. Merely moving up in weight class will make him in the top spot.

    He could fight a 200lb fat ass and they could deem it a HW fight and Pacquaio would probably be ranked number 1 simply because of the point system they use.

    And Calzaghe is P4P #1 while Pac is #4 or #6....

    Sheesh, boxrec is computer based. And it has the worst rankings ever. The only good thing to look at it is their previous bouts. They're future bouts aren't even accurate also.

    considering he's a favorite against Hatton at 140, i think its appropriate.

    No way in hell will anyone believe that a fighter who hasn't fight in a division becomes it's number 1 ranking fighter.
