              I would agree that Margo would had been percieved as the bigger threat but the main reason he earned the shot was cause he fights under Top Rank. But if you want to throw in what makes more financial sense then Margo was the few that would had made financial sense

                    This must be a joke. Prime? He barely beat Kotelnik. Many fans felt he lost and he's done nothing. Bradley has a better claim to Pacquiao, and the reality is even he doesn't at this moment. Winner of the unofficial mini 140 tourney should attempt to call Pacquiao out. If and only if they look impressive doing it and said fighter effectively created buzz around himself in the process.

                      Hatton also fought Tszyu, Mayweather, Urango, Castillo etc, had a historically epic fan following, was undefeated at the weight class(140) and was lineal champion. I shouldn't have said Berto is best known for fighting life and death with Collazo, because currently he is best known for being the most overpaid least delivering fighter in boxing. Yes, he's earned his shot by pwning Ross Greenburg.
