This has probably been asked before but I'm just curious. Is there any reason not to put him at number one?
moving up in weight to beat p4p #1 and a p4p #3 on his record in koysta, he would have to be #1. if beating the p4p #1 doesn't make you number #1 it can only mean that the person you beat wasn't #1 in the first place and everyone agrees mayweather is so hatton would definatly be #1
He would be ranked anywhere from 1-3. You could make cases for Calzaghe and Pacquiao being ahead of him though.
Beating an undeafeated 5 divisional champ and the No 1 p4p fighter while remaining undefeated himself is quite an accomplishment so I don't have problem seeeing him climb up to the top three or even to the number 1 position.
Are recent wins over a post-prime Morales (twice after losing once), post-prime Barrera, and solis better than recent wins against a post-prime Tsyzu, prime Mayweather, and post-prime Collazo? I guess I could see Pac being ranked above Hatton, but wouldn't Hattons recent resume be better?
:nut How? When he has never faced anybody even remotely close to the quality of Mayweather..... or Koysta Tszyu for that matter.
#1 unless he gets a Chavez Vs. Whitaker decision. If it's a legit win, even if close, he should be #!.
