I am a very what have you done lately guy, Sergio Mora just beat the man to beat at 154, does that mean he is a p4p guy? No

Hatton's last 3 fights

Lazcano - way past it, nothing but a showcase fight for Hatton, you can't make it out to be anything more than it was. Lazcano coming in off a loss following 15 months of inactivity. Currently at #9 on the ring list

Mayweather - we don't need to go into this again

Jose Luis Castillo - see Lazcano. If there was justice he should have been coming in off a loss, Ngoudjo definately won that fight.

Juan Urango - Power and nothing else. Not exactly a stellar performance by Ricky. Currently # 7 on the ring list.

Luis Collazo - The softest punching WW in the game. It's lucky for Hatton that he got that flash knockdown in the first round, or it would have been a draw.

Mijares last 5 fights

Munoz - unification match against a legitimate super flyweight in his prime.
Still rated at # 3 by the ring

Navarro - also in his prime coming in off a loss that would have been a draw. Still rated at # 7 by the ring

Gorjux - ok this was his mandatory so he took him out in one

Kikui - In his prime. One of the highest rated Japanese super Flyweights at the time.

Arce - Blood and guts action fighter. Still in his prime. Still rated #5 by the ring.
(sorry..I don't want to gatecrash you fellas little debate but)

You changed it from 3 to 5 opponents just to include Arce, didn't you?

I'm a neutral where Hatton and Mijares are concerned - I don't rate either top ten P4P. But your post just bolstered the argument for Hatton being above Mijares

Judging soley on current comp, Hatton's record, even with a loss, looks better.

Munoz - Had a strap. So what? Hatton fought Urango for his strap.
Navarro - coming off a loss.
Gorjux - WHO? Journeyman.
Kikui - WHO? Coming off a loss.
Arce - Former champ.

Hatton lasting 10 rounds with Floyd pisses all over that lot
Just because you haven't heard of someone doesn't mean they aren't world class. bottom line is Mijares is fighting the best competition available to him and winning convincingly the next step has to be Montiel, maybe Gorres otherwise he is clearly dominant in that division.

Hatton has not faced the best competition available lately, but his opponents have had more televised efforts. TV status and p4p status are two entirely different things.

Munoz, Kikui and Navarro are all top fighters, that gave it their all in those fights and I reemphasize they are all in their primes.

You compare Munoz to Urango
well look at the fights, Munoz and Mijares fought tooth and nail for 12 rounds in an exciting fight.

Hatton and Urango fought for five rounds and then Hatton pulled that John Ruiz shit for the rest of the fight, I don't see how that helps his p4p status personally.
Sorry.. I'll do this the lazy way.

Mijares is dominant in the superfly divison. The next step is Montiel, maybe Gorres

Hatton has NEVER lost at 140. That makes him pretty dominant in the 140 divison, no? The next step is Paulie the guy rated 2.

Munoz, Kikui and Navarro are all top fighters, that gave it their all in those fights and I reemphasize they are all in their primes.

What makes them better class fighters than Collazo (WBA 147 champ), Urango (IBF unbeaten 140 champ) and Floyd (Best P4P in the world)? They are fighters in their PRIME (Capitals for emphasis) that gave it their all, no?

You compare Munoz to Urango?

Munoz was a belt holder at superfly. Urango was a belt holder at Lightwelter. Mijares won an exciting SD. Hatton won a boring UD. SO.. basically you're penalising Hatton for BORING you.

All you have is - Mijares rates higher than Hatton because you like Mijares but don't like Hatton.
