if Diaz beats JMM and Hatton beats Pacquiao then who's the best fighter in the world?

Fair reasoning but I wouldn't have Vasquez anyhow.I'd have Bernard no.1

 

to be honest i think izzy would deserve the #1 lb 4 lb title...i know bhop has done alot to get back up since losing to jermain but i feel izzy is the more deserving of the two!! Juss my opinion but id respect it if they gave it to bhop...

Hatton id place top 5 if he beats pac!

 

reguardless of how pac loses?

meaning, what if hatton won by SD in a fight that could have gone either way and or robbery?

 

I don't know I haven't thought about it that way.Chances are the fight won't go that way and I'll have Pac at 3 if he loses with Bernard and Vasquez above him

 

well you should.

i mean, jmm's close fights with pac is the main reason why he was ranked at 2-3. now if he had been KTFO by pac prior to beating casa, i doubt he would have been top 10.

theres a huge difference between losing by SD & KO.

 

Why are you acting like I'm wrong??This is very subjective.Can we wait for the result of the fight before you start attempting to prove people wrong

PS the thread title doesn't specify the specific manner of defeat

 

hold up, this thread is ..if hatton beats pacquiao then whos the best fighter in the world and all im questioning (if anything) is how you'd base your p4p rankings. thats all.

PS. i'm specifying the specific manner of defeat. (nice edit)

 

Yes and you stray off topic by doing so.The title says if Hatton wins,I don't read that and automatically assume he wins by robbery.If it turns out that way,then rankings may have to be revised slightly

 

:huh i'm straying off topic? -so wait, i'm just supposed to drop a name and bounce without clarifacation & reasoning ? my bad, i didnt know you couldnt handle a little depth.

if ricky beats pac convincingly = b-hop

if ricky barely wins by SD = still pac

izzy has been inactive too long to be p4p #1 esp by default IMO.

 

Didn't say that.All I said was I hadn't really taken into consideration the manne of defeat because at this stage it is all hypothetical.You don't have to base it on that anyhow.The result is the same either way.Funny thing is,I agree with you Bernard or Pac may have a case read my first post on this thread

 

Bernard Hopkins, a clear number 1 in that case. Clear.

 

a WIN over diaz will know put JMM in #1 position coz he already lost to papa nate!

 

a'no? -(means "what" in tagalog)

 

it depends on the way they won...again more perception...

 

still pac
