You actually couldn't be more wrong there. How good you look winning is most of what p4p is all about. Otherwise Sven Ottke would be in the top 20 all time.
So why the F*** do you have jermain 'bad F****** intentions' taylor at number 10?
He beat hopkins the second time, after a very very competitive first fight that I thought Hopkins edged out.. Then fought to a draw in a very close fight against WRight. Again, I thought he lost by a round or so.. But the fact is, that at the time those were the number 1 and 2 p4p fighters in the world, almost undeniably, and he still hasn't lost. Hell why do you think after fighting #1 and 2, I only have him at number 10? Im not saying he's looked great. But he took the 3 hardest possible fights in a row and did fairly well for himself in each. Sure if Hatton had beaten Tszyu yesterday Id proably have him in the middle of the list, but the fact is it wasn't, and since then he has not only fought mediocre opposition, but looked average doing it. I think he is already on the slide, to be honest.
He looked terrible and i think anyone has a case for him even losing all 3. Hell i'm not saying hatton should be in the top ten because i honestly don't think he should be, but if he is there i don't understand how you can drop out when you have won 3 world titles in a row with 1 being at a higher weight and 2 being away from home.

Styles make fights so to not have somebody on the list simply because they didn't look brillaint is a bit silly IMO. Style wise Hatton's last 3 fights have been a total nightmare. One clown and 2 southpaws. But he found a way to win and that IMO is more important than looking good and losing, which seems to fit the criteria for making your p4p list....ala Bernard Hopkins.
