Should Hatton be on the P4P list?

[Memorex]

hatton didnt beat the former p4p king, he beat a old tszyu

[{BrownBomber}]

you should know by now that as soon as an American prospect beats someone with a name they are on the P4P list and move every one else down.doesnt matter how many years of hard work and domination the Barrera's and Morales' spent beating top fighters.Does this seem to happen al to often?Yes it does, Tzsyu was wipped off when he lost and Hopkins wasnt.

I think James Toney should be in there.

i agree with you..and yeah hatton should be on it too

It is easy to say "so and so should be on the list," but until you actually sit down and write out a top 10 list, you dont realize how difficult it is. There are about 20 worthy fighters and only 10 spots on the list.

How is Taylor #4? Because he beat B-hop? Who else has Taylor beat...???

Oh my bad...yea Taylor should probably be #1.

If Hatton is 10 then Taylor should be 9 or 10?

Look at it like this, if Taylor beats Hopkins again this Saturday, he will have in no doubt earned his place in the top 5. If he loses, he'll fall.

Oh and I want to add as a result of this Barrera is sick and tired of it.That is why he is fighting nobodies right now,its the new American way.

wtf is all this nonesense?think of all the TOP guys Castillo and Corrales have fought thru out the years.Hatton needs to come to America to even be considered a top 10.He beat an old Tzyu and a guy that got a belt cause he got lucky.Hatton is a good fighter but he in my eyes has not proven to be top 10 P4P material.He certainly has some qualities that may rule the division but hasnt fought enough top quality opponents.His time will come to prove to me if he deserved that right but at this moment he isnt.I was reading some other sites and some guys are saying that with this win he is the best boxer on the planet.

Agreed...Hatton fight a worhty opponent already

Come on my friend, Hatton beat an elite fighter in Tszyu. Tszyu would still beat down any of the other fighters at 140 and if Castillo comes up i'd bet he'd beat him too(even though i think Castillo's great and one of my favourite fighters). Hatton has to do more to become top 5 P4P but he's top 10 without doubt.

How you been anyway? Havent spoken to you in a while.

You could be right, i said nothing bad about rick he has the qualities to beat everyone down.What I said is he hasnt done anything yet you just dont land on top 10 by beating Tzsyu which was old and had many injury problems in the last 2 years.I say 1 more big name and he makes top 10 even if he beats Lazcano.Lazcano doesnt have any excuses hanging over his head.

P4P is hard to judge, i understand what you mean but i think he's P4P already. I think Hatton's fought some good fighters, but only the one elite fighter, but not many fighters have beaten more than one elite fighter.........Judahs considered P4P and he hasnt even beaten an elite fighter. If you look at my P4P list its filled with Mexicans because they seem to fight each other without huge paydays, something most other fighters dont do. Boxing needs some changes soon, so the best fight the best.
