    Please elaborate on what Hatton has accomplished besides 2 weight division champ. I know he beat zoo for the 140 title and beat Callazo for a vacant alphabet belt at 147. Lost to PBF

    PW beat #1 WW in Margarito. PW was a champ in the WW division before vacating the belt. Only time will tell what type of fighter he will be at 154 or 160. So far so good though. If PW gets in the ring with any of the 154 champs, he will be "the NEW champ".

    id go with hatton, i dont think hes a better fighter but has achieved more, give it a year or two and i believe williams will work his way above hatton a possibly break into top 5!

    haha i dont think paul williams has as hard a time as people think making 147

    i mean he CONSTANTLY says he wants to fight there and stay there for a long as possible... if it was such an issue i dont think he would talk about it so frequently... i mean if it was such an issue he would call margo out at 154 since they both have fought there...

    paul wants him & cotto @ 147... i dont think making weight is an issue for him

    Hatton.

    I don't have a problem with Williams also being in the top ten though and cannot rank either Cotto or Margarito above him.

    At this point Hatton. PW might be better, but you got to prove it in the ring first. He only has 1 W against a top fighter, and a slim points decision at that. Hatton has several and has won belts in 2 divisions (and is undisputed in one of them), PW still has not, and has not even successfully defended a belt yet. Plus, the level of competition he's faced above 147 has ranged from weak to less than stellar. You can make the same arguement about his level of comp at 147, aside from Margarito.

    It is absolutely ABSOLUTELY not a problem for P to make 147. You are basing your assumption on what?

    Paul probably walks around at no more than ### or so. He is that damn skinny. Has always been that damn skinny his whole life. That's what all these "experts" who claim he can't make weight don't realize about him. Making weight ain't **** for him.
