It has nothing to do with belts, Hatton isd the actual champion at 140.

Oscar wasn't the champion, or a contender at any weight.

hatton beat paulie but not as convincingly as pac beat dela hoya. pac paid his dues and now he deserves a bigger slice of the pie.dela hoya might not be a belt holder but he is the biggest ppv draw. you would think that hatton would get 50% against dela hoya if they were to fight?
Pacquaio beat a version of De la Hoya.
A faded, weight drained, decade past prime De la Hoya.

So although it is imprssive to rise from Superfeatherweight and beat a Welter in one year, he doesn't get the full merit.
