Number 1. If he beats the man he is the man
Hatton P4P No. 1,2,3,4 or 5? - IF he wins May 2nd.

I only agree with him being heavily penalized, but i think thats to do with the fashion of the loss, and then the poor performance against Lazcano. I feel he should be around 7 or 8.
I personally think p4p ratings should be based on the accomplishments you achieve outside your weight division. with that said Hatton went up to 147 and didn't really look amazing did he?
I disagree with that part. for me p4p is all about who could beat who if size wasnt an issue, so moving weight class isnt all that important. Some people can move up and down weight easier than others. Heavyweights being an obv example but its a non issue at the moment as they are all pretty ****.
However the way in which a fighter wins or loses a fight is hugely important, almost as important as the opponent(s) faced.Comment

Do you believe a KO loss would affect your ranking more than a SD loss?I disagree with that part. for me p4p is all about who could beat who if size wasnt an issue, so moving weight class isnt all that important.

of course, if u get dominated and KTFO its worse than losing a SD, and should affect your ranking accordingly (not just p4p but division rankings too).
If u lose a SD u were obv. competitive in the fight, and maybe even have a claim that u deserved to win, if you get KTFO after being dominated for the most part u have no such claim!Comment

Sorry, not soley on accomplishments achieved outside your weight division.. obviously you have to dominate your natural class firstly then go onto to dominate fighters in other weight divisions and also different stylistic fighters to prove your pound for pound the best.I disagree with that part. for me p4p is all about who could beat who if size wasnt an issue, so moving weight class isnt all that important.

But you kind of contradict yourself, how are you gonna prove who you can beat if weight wasn't an issue - without leaving your natural weight class???Comment

Sorry didnt make myself clear, u cant prove it, its educated guess work and opinion, a bit like if Wlad were to fight Pac but they were both the same size, who would win? Thats what I mean.Sorry, not soley on accomplishments achieved outside your weight division.. obviously you have to dominate your natural class firstly then go onto to dominate fighters in other weight divisions and also different stylistic fighters to prove your pound for pound the best.
