..Forbes-Hatton @ 140: Who Takes It?...

[THe TRiNiTY]

How do you figure Floyd was timed against Hatton , he let Hatton do his bullrush **** for 3 rnds by just nullifying Hatton and WAITING for the Hatton bustle to settle just a touch and then in the 4th he took Hatton apart and finally koed him ,, timid wtf are you looking at , did you expect Floyd to go all Mayorga or something , Floyd is very technical not timid .

Timid: lacking in boldness OR determination. He wasn't lacking in determination, but it's not exactly BOLD to wait for the moment to strike. Therefore, it was a bit timid. There's nothing wrong with that. Obviously, he WON. But, he was timid.

Technical and timid are different things. BUt he was both, not one or the other. Against Gatti, he was technical, but WASN'T timid. Against De La Hoya, he was technical and but timid at the start. Against Hatton, he was a bit timid. You act as if waiting someone out is a bad thing or something. It's not an insult, it's simply the case.

He was wary of the fact that Hatton is a solid fighter. Wary doesn't mean a bad thing either..

WARY: emphasizes su****iousness and alertness in watching for danger and cunning in escaping it. That's not a bad thing.

He's alert, he was wating him out, he was able to weather it all and that's not bad. Clearly, since he won. In short, he was wary and timid at first, which lead to him being victorious. Don't be so touchy.

One thing people SEEM to be overlooking is the fact that a lot of Forbes' inactivity is due to De La Hoya being at the natural weight and being the busier, stronger guy. Against less-strong opposition, and at his own weight Forbes is actually a pretty busy fighter.

Forbes by decision he would outbox Ricky and in the inside fight Forbes gets the best of it he throws beautiful combinations on the inside. Forbes 115-113

Not touchy mate just dont think Floyd was timid in the Hatton fight , Hatton was very strong , for mine if Floyd was timid he would have got on a bike but he looked relaxed and just rode the wave untill it was time to strike , no probs

i dont like hatton at all but hatton would take him down easy decision honestly. possible a stoppage. i dont think forbes got what it takes for hatton.

[revs1227]

hatton very bad ko

[THe TRiNiTY]

hatton very bad ko

So, by your logic, Hatton has the power advantage over De La Hoya?

[Bobby Shaw]

Hatton decision, he's fast and tenacious. He was landing on Mayweather he could land on Forbes.

I dont know which fight you were watching but Hatton was a punchbag in that fight.

Forbes will win this fight because Forbes is not just a defensive fighter he throws a lot more punches than Floyd.

[Cadey]

Hatton via late stoppage.
