if hatton beats manny

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.

Definately top 5, that would be a huge win for Hatton.

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.

Ill put him pound / pound number one if he beats pac then jmm then wins rematch with mayweather, although it could also depend on whats happend else where in that time.
