Thats about the most accurate list you can find
Hatton above cotto, Vasquez....
Definitely...Miguel got outclassed by a guy who was barely in the top 10 compared to ricky who got beat by the very best in the world
And Vasquez already has a good few errors on his record to consider him completely unstopable!!

Hatton deserves to be above Cotto no doubt.
Cotto got knocked out by the one-dimesnional Tony Margarito. He beat Mosely but big wow. Hatton beat Kosta. Judah is garbage when faced with top fighters, Ricardo Torres just got KO'd in 1 round. Hatton forced Paulie to retire, Cotto never....The list goes on.

I take it you never watched the fight!
It was dead level going into those last 2 and cotto just wanted it more
The only way you can compare cotto and hatton at the moment is how they both dealt with malignaggi, ricky won at a canter, cotto had to settle for 115-112 narrow points win.
ICB - The comparisons between what you just made for vasquez i could make the very same for hatton.
Israel has beaten the best in his division, so has hatton. Only with far lesser trouble and more defining.
Hatton only has 1 real blemish on his entire career which has involved fighting world class opposition for a good few years now!!

Israel Vasquez is considered top 5 P4P by Ring Magazine, and by 95 percent of fans. Having him at number 8 is laughable just laughable. All of his losses except for the Rafael Marquez one were years ago, you obviously don't know much about Israel Vasquez.
And you have just looked at his record seen those losses and rated him lower based on those losses, which is flawed logic. When you have to take into account the opposition he has been facing, and his opposition in the past few years has been very strong, and the fact he has only 1 loss in years despite the strength of his opposition lately, speaks volumes.
You have no Ivan Calderon, Rafael Marquez. Miguel Cotto was top 5 P4P at max so why has he only dropped two places ?
Ricky Hatton may have a good record stats wise, but what about his opposition ? Ricky Hatton has only fought 3 fighters who i consider world class. Luis Collazo, Kostya Tszyu, Floyd Mayweather.
Please don't insult my intelligence by saying thats the most accurate list i'll find, its actually one of the most poor top 10 P4P lists i've seen on this forum in quite some time.

nobody here is being bias.
i give credit to hatton for fighting the best in his division but the divison is kinda weak though. and paulie isnt exactly a threat to hatton even though i thought he would get a decision.
but ur p4p list is gay, u have Hatton over Vic and Vic actually beat a fighter that was actually on the P4P LIST.

Considering most fans compile their lists based on acomplishments and quality of opposition, Hatton definitely gets a raw deal in the P4P lists, not just by most fans but The Ring itself.
His last 8 fights have all been against top 10 Ring ranked fighters at 140 and 147. Including three top 10 P4P-ers.
That pisses all over certain other fighters that qualify.
