    And it's not as if he said that he WILL rank Joe p4p no. 1; I'm pretty he's talking about right now, before the fight.

    :patsch

    I got Joe at 4, but then again, I got Mayweather no. 1.

    Because realistically nobody deserves the top spot at the moment, maybe just keep it vacant. Floyd in no way deserves the top spot.

    Joe is an excellent fighter.....he is p4p the no:1 best managed fighter....hes the only guy who can fight 21 title defences (if u call the wbo a genuine title) and not fight a p4p or HOF fighter. Who else got away with a con job like that.

    I do think he has more ability than his resume suggests, but he loses my respect for not going to the US earlier fighting RJJ Bhop when he was younger or move from the weakest division in boxing earlier.

    Hatton has also faced better opposition and also beaten better fighters.

    As B-HOP said "Hatton brought more to the US than Calzaghe, he had balls"....

    hopkins and jones wouldn't fight him. joe was calling these guys out for years. He was sceduled to fight hopkins in 2002 but bernard pulled out. saw sense if you ask me

    The reason why he never fought the other opposition in the U.S was beacuse it made more financial sense to fight at home. the name of the game is money mate.

    the wbo title has been considered a major title for 15 years . what title is really taken seriously nowaday any way. the ring title is the only one that matters. joe has beaten the best at his weight for years.
