P4P bias towards American based fighters?

[amat]

Back to the topic at hand, when did Calzaghe and Hatton crack the P4P lists? Surely Joe made it before fighting Hopkins and Hatton never fought stateside until he fought Collazo. I'm not sure if he was on the P4P lists by that time or not but I'm fairly confident he was.

Abraham doesn't really have a case to be on the P4P list because the only guy he has beaten that opens any eyes is Miranda. Ivan Calderon was at the 10 spot in the January issue which I have right now. He may have fought in the US before but he's definitely a Puerto Rico based fighter.

Actually, I'll go ahead and list the guys in the Ring 100 who haven't fought in America or who at least aren't American based.

10. Calderon
18. Abraham
19. John
20. Kessler
23. Hasegawa
32. Naito
35. Haye
37. Gonzalez
43. Pongslakek
44. Sakata
45. Erdei
48. Valero

Those are it for the top 50. I think most of those are about right but there are some American fighters who probably are to high up on the list like Pavlik at 11.
