    Just been on the website and hatton is not on any of the four major sanctioning bodys top ten JW is this because he holds the ibo belt? Just wondering if people could help me clear it up.

    Shouldn't be a surprise. The major self appointed sanctioning bodies are corrupt, self serving ,money making machines with little regard to fairness.

    As soon as he fought Mayweather he lost his standings. This is to prevent any fighter from holding mutiple weightclass titles.
