    I give him the 10 spot. I had Tszyu at 3 and he convincingly beat Tszyu and made him retire on his stool so he deserve that spot at least.

    1. Hopkins (undefeated in like 12 years with 20 defenses)
    2. Mayweather (simply the best fighter on the planet in my opinion)
    3. Morales (living legend even though he can't seem to get past Barrera)
    4. Wright (underrated for many years had him at 6 before beating Tito)
    5. Corrales (earned his spot the hard way)
    6. Castillo (up until the Corrales fight had an impressive run)
    7. Tszyu (still a great champion who lost to a hungry young fighter)
    8. Barrera (has had a great career)
    9. R Marquez (has been on a good run lately)
    10. Hatton (beating Tszyu convincingly deserves something)

      I'd say Hatton belongs in the top 7 guys for sure.


      Hopkins
      Mayweather
      Wright
      Morales
      Corrales
      Hatton
      R. Marquez
      Castillo
      Barrera
      Judah

        I see Hatton at #10, maybe. I'm still not convinced he's anything special after last night. It was a dirty, messy fight that the ref didn't control. It didn't do much to raise Hatton's rep internationally, in my eyes anyway.
        Anyone that has Hatton ahead of Morales is brain damaged. Morales consistently sought out and fought the top guys in his division and has beaten every single one of them. Practically all of his fights are outside of Mexico in the States.
        Hatton's had 40 fights and is still hiding in Manchester.
        Let's see Hatton fight one of the top guys in his division outside of England and we'll see what he's really got. I'd like to see him go to the fight capital of the world Las Vegas and see if he can hang with the big boys on neutral turf.
        Until then #10, at best.

            The P4P list is just BS....But the 140 pounds rankings should look like this:

            1. Hatton
            2. Harris
            3. Cotto
            4. Gatti
            5. Floyd

                  How is:

                  Santos in the top 20? (a no-contest and sketchy win with Margarito don't merit being a top 20 fighter. The only other game guy he fought was Kofi Jantuah and Kofi blasted out Santos in 3 rounds...at least put him under Margarito for goodness sake)

                  Barrera over Morales? (Morales just convincingly beat the guy that dominated and KOed Barrera. Marco has beaten Erik twice but both were close and I don't think Morales should be lower simply because he's lost to MAB twice. Barreras lost to Jones 2x also...and Morales has done more with his career.)

                  JLC above Corrales? (Corrales just KOed Castillo. Two other impressive wins behind it and moving up to his third weight class soon should certainly put him above Castillo. Castillo has lost to lesser opponents whereas Corrales has only lost to elite fighters.)

                  I also don't agree with Pac above R. Marquez, and Cory Spinks shouldn't still be in the top 10-12 guys.

                  Just my humble opinions. Also get ready to click that donate button and hand over 20 mil come tommorow.
