    Around 7 or 8.

    I don't think you could give him enough credit to take him any higher than that for beating a much smaller man even as good as Pac is.

    Eight. Above Mijares, R Marquez and Calderon, but still below Cotto, Vasquez, Pavlik.

    it depends how well he hopefully beats malignaggi, if he slaughters him like cotto did and does the same the pacman, youve gota argue hes 5-6

    I just don't see Pavlik as P4P top 5 yet? Seriously why is everybody loving him so much - granted he is exciting, but is waiting to be schooled surely? Just my opinion.

    he wasn't the smaller man :-(
    it was the size of fight in the dog that made hatton to diminish and then disappear completely :D

    May be a place or two but Pac is the smaller fighter

    Because Hatton is a natural 140 moving up to 147, one weight class. Mayweather is more of a natural 130/135, who just moved up to 147, so he wasn't that much bigger than Hatton as he wasn't a natural 147.

    Pacman has moved up from 112 from the beginning of his career, and only recently from 130 to 135 and then would have to move up again to 140 against a natural 140, so Hatton would clearly be a lot bigger, just as David Diaz was.

    If Pacquaio is #1 p4p you'd have to move Ricky up to the top 5, especially if he beats Malignaggi in November.

    Hatton is already anywhere from top 10-15 and his only loss is to PBF, who was #1 p4p at the time.
