    Its Hatton and that makes what Pac did even greater.

    after one fight Pacman cannot be the best 140 pounder, but I admit he is the best in boxing now. Great fighter.. Much greater than Floyd.

    all of a sudden, hatton may not be top 3 140 pounder in this decade afterall...but i have him at 4th behind pac, KT and pbf

    Again dude - 1 fight at the weight - As spectuacular and dominant as it was - Is not a body of work to judge against say Tszyu's 9 fights and 8 stoppages or hatton's 20 odd fights at the weight.

    Jesus asero - He near killed Hatton and has titles in 6 weight classes and you just want more, more, more ;)

    so you would still rank hatton over pacquiao in the all-time 140 list?

    KT has only 6 fights this decade and lost in a fight when he was a 3-1 favorite

    Tszyu was a better boxer but Hatton was at his peak beyond 01.

    Let's see Pac collect some belts and defend the title.

    If this is Manny's one and only fight at 140 - On achievement yes.

    You're list fixated Asero - Manny is a once in a lifetime fighter, but let's see the body of work he puts together first before making an "All time list"

    hmm at 140 after 2001 id say hatton, even though i love KT, his best year was 2000 i was starting to see him less afterwards his best win after 2001 was judah,, but hatton was getting better and improving to be tough and resiliant , so il say hatton, but it would of been a clear winner for me if hatton had fought witter, an bradley before pac

    How can anyone vote for Pacquaio after 1 fight?

    Well, I suppose he was voted by the ESB ******s as the 'best featherweight of the last 20 years' ..... despite only having one meaingful win at that weight, so anything is possible. :patsch

    This place is laughable sometimes.

    Pac is now the lineal champ in l40. Ergo, Pac>>> Hatton >>>> Tyzu

    pac's demolition of hatton is better than the career of KT 2001 onwards (urkal,judah,tackie,leija,mitchell and a lost to hatton)

    Why not? He's the lineal champ. He fought and won in 147 and slid to 140 and captured two belts. How can you not give credit to that?

    So, who did you vote?
