Mate, you're not going to convince me and I'm not going to convince you. When push comes to shove we're disagreeing over something that is really not hugely relevant. Quits?

Or is he just being ranked second in teh division on the back of a win over a limited Arturo Gatti who boxed almost exactly the wrong fight?
Most people would pick PBF to run rings round Hatton though (including Team Hatton if they dont wnat the fight) its just Hatton happens to be the champ BUT that doesn't make him the best at 140

Despite it's historical significance The Ring is a pretty poor magazine these days if you ask me. I read it a couple of times and always found the information outdated, The Ring is somewhat irrelevant IMO.
