    no one, but Mercado was very close with two knockdowns, Hopkins won enough rounds to get a draw.

    Cotto will fight Margarito, therefore if he does win, then his ranking moves up.

    Pacquiao will fight Diaz, therefore if he does win, then his status moves up.

    Calzaghe has no choice but to fight a big name fighter and if he does win, then his status moves up.

    BUT how can Pacquiao, Calzaghe, Cotto move up if the three are all moving up to no.1 ??????????

    Who will be no.2 ???? or no.3 ????

    As long as the three are beating big name fighters, their ranking will not move up, because they prevent each other from moving up.

    I don't know about p4p ratings, he's up there for sure though. PBF is out due to inactivity. Cotto is out of 1-5 because he fought a nobody. He's probably behind Pac, by a dingleberry.

    Joe Calzaghe will likely fight as long as he can and I'm convince that he can fight up to 40 years old. He has an impressive record 45-0. He needs to include a few more big names in his list and achieve a p4p no.1 rating. Once he accomplishes those few goals, then probably he can consider retiring.
    Joe Calzaghe would like to be called an ATG/HOF.

    Yeah he's my #1.

    Cotto Is around #6 and making good progress but Calzaghe has been on top for so long he deserves it. Pac LOST to Marquez imo and has losses on his record.
    Floyd loses #1 spot for fighting De La hoya again. He has to prove how good he is by taking challenges.

    Cotto no.6???? He's no. 3 p4p since he fights quite often. Cotto could only be p4p no.1 if he fights Mayweather. If he beats Margarito, he could only jump as high as no.2. or stay at no.3. Depending on how the other p4p fighters do. Pacquiao beating Diaz would prevent Cotto from getting to no.1 spot. Calzaghe defeating RJJ would also prevent Cotto from getting to no.1 spot.

    I just don't understand...:huh Calz is beating PAST PRIME legends. barely beating a 43 yr old is not something to hang your hat on.. Let alone be thought as the #1 P4P afterwords... Please explain this logic.. Also, please explain why he would get so much credit if he beats RJJ? (another PAST PRIME fighter) RJJ is getting this fight based on his NAME, as did Bhop...(granted Bhop was champ, but still he is extremely old to be fighting)
