The only reason Hatton wouldnt be is not because he wouldnt deserve it but because he would be begrudged it

Everyone here, or a big majority is singing Pacs praises, if he gets shot down by Hatton there will be excuses, like well Hatton is naturally stronger and De La Hoya was weight drained and tired, well if any of this is said if and when Hatton wins then should Pacquiao be ahead of Calzaghe right now?

good points mate! i got the feeling that people would begrudge it to him aswell because of the mayweather defeat. But having said that, the pacman has been beaten 3 times and has 2 draws. It's all very confusing to work out isnt it! Maybe Calzaghe should be p4p number 1 right now just simply because he is undefeated.
Calzaghe is def not P4P #1. There was a good case for him prior to Pac's year, but now, Pac has seperated himself from Joe.
