Hatton P4P No1?

[Kev]

He beat Kostya Tzsyu when he was No.1 P4P and if he beats Floyd Mayweather who is the current P4P then there can be no denying Ricky Hatton is the No.1 in the World.

Tszyu was never P4P number 1, and as for Hatton beating Mayweather he will go to number 2 or 3 i believe.

Can't see how you can say he was never P4P No.1 as pretty sure he was at the top of the rankings in most respected magazines.

To my knowledge Tszyu was never in the top 3 p4p. Before Floyd assumed the spot Bernard Hopkins was p4p number 1 and for years before Hopkins took the slot Roy Jones was number 1 according to the ring rankings.

When Hatton beat Tyszu, Kosta was just about in the top 10, bottom end.

Hopkins, Barrera, Morales, Mayweather, Coralles, Castillo etc were all rated above Tyszu in the p4p rankings at that time as I recall.

Kostya was The Ring p4p no.3 when Hatton duffed him up.

for the list Fenster, i'm suprsied J M Marquez was on the list back then I thought he didn't really become a p4p star until the Barrera win. Also Glen Johnson at number 10. I guess it must have been following his win over Tarver but still I would never have considered Johnson a p4p star at any time.

Presumably Jones had already suffered his KO losses by June 05 hence him not being anywhere in the top 10?
