    Where would you have him in your P4P list?

    Before everyone starts I'm not saying he will, just wondering where you guys would place him.

    IMO he would be top 3 without doubt.

    If Hatton - Floyd is a close win for Ricky, he goes to #1 pfp and Floyd goes to 2, 3 or 4....depends.

    If Hatton wins easily, or by KO, he obviously is #1 and Floyd drops to 4 or 5 behind Hatton, Pac, Rafa + JMM Marquez and he gets lumped with Hop/Winky/Taylor/Calzaghe.

    Probably 2-3, Pac would most likely move to #1

    i would put him at 1, he beat the p4p best in his prime....

    1 - Hatton
    2 - Mayweather
    3 - Pac
    4 - Winky (yes i know hopkins beat him... hopkins is also bigger and it was a close fight, winky still has the D with Taylor, W over mosley twice, and trinidad)
    5 - Hopkins
    6 - Rafa

    Floyd is not fighting Shane, Cotto, or Paul Willams, guys meant for the welterweight division or higher.

    He's fighting Hatton who has shown he is meant for jr. welter after struggling with Collazo.

    Mosley beta Collazo 9-3.....8-4 at worst.

    P4P this is a good list. I just would have Rafa marquez in that top 3 area, JM Marquez in that #5 or 6 slot.

    Still though still seems a bit of a drop, he could catch him just like he caught Castillo. Nobody could take a bodyshot like that.

    Ya but Tszyu disapeared from the pound for pound lists after his loss and Hopkins who was #1 dropped to at least 6 on most peoples lists after his loss(which no matter how we scored it all have to agree it was damn close) so a knockout loss could see Floyd drop well back .

    Tszyu was still top 10 after the loss on a lot of lists, he just dissapeared eventually due to unofficial retirement.

    Well, Collazo is better than what he showed against Mosely, I remind you he broke his hand on the second round and basically fought with one hand. Collazo is different fighter, Southpaw and a huge welterweight, unlike Floyd. I think Hatton-Floyd is actually a competetive matchup.

    I'd place him above Hopkins.
