I think with what he has done recently across the weights, Pac could still be P4P number one even if he loses
If he takes Hatton to a split decision in a war, I wouldn't be knocking him off the top spot

Hmm... well, let's see...
Right now I checked The Ring's rankings and they have Hatton at # 9 (which I think is overly generous).
If Hatton, a natural 140 pounder, beats Manny Pacquiao, (a natural 130 pounder who actually started his career at 105), at 140 pounds, then that would put Hatton at, let's see......
# 9 ?

I'd say 4, but he would get a chance at number 1 if he took on JMM immediately at the end of the year.
U dont deserve P4P #1 if u beat two fighters in a row that are naturally much smaller than u. Only way Hatton gets #1 is if he beats a top 4 Welter. Mosely, Cotto, Mayweather, Williams etc....
Otherwise all he has done is be on top of a weak division and beaten a couple of smaller guys.
Hatton beating Pac, and JMM would be like Wlad beating Haye and Adamek.
Sneaks in to the top 5 for me but if he can follow it up with a win over JMM and then move up and fight Cotto and win you could argue the case. As a Ricky fan, it is a bit annoying when he comes out with I will pfp1 after beating Manny which in most fans eyes he won't be untill he takes on a couple more pfp fighters and wins.
