    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?

    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 #!.
