    Are some of you guys actually serious?

    Hatton lost to the best fighter in the world. That doesn't suddenly make him a bum. Hatton would easily outclass Forbes if they ever fought (and they never will).

    Hatton by wide UD.

      i think hatton would give mayweather a really good fight and light welterweight if there was a different ref too, everyone knows hatton isnt a welterweight, he struggled vs collazo, was no way in hell he was gona beat mayweather at that weight

        It would be a close fight which would end in a controversy win for Hatton by UD, Hatton doesnt have enough power to really stop a guy like Forbes who has a very good defence. I could see Forbes having some success but hatton forcing the issue to take it.

            Hatton decision.

            Forbe's credentials have gone sky high after his fight with Oscar, even though he lost...

                Some people heregive Forbes to much credit, he is at best a C level fighter. He has absolutely zero chance with Hatton, Hatton would just run over him. Forbes would cover up, run for his life and hold on just to get to the 12 round.

                  Forbes will win this fight because Forbes is not just a defensive fighter he throws a lot more punches than Floyd.
                  I don't know which fight you were watching but Hatton was landing on Floyd, and if he can land on Floyd he can land on Forbes at a higher rate. Hatton was only a punchbag from round 7, the first six he was landing frequently and the fight was competitive despite the best efforts of Cortez.

                      Well as stated, Forbes cant hurt Hatton, but Hatton cant hurt Forbes either imo. If Oscar De La Hoya couldn't KO him then Hatton cant and Oscar is a much bigger puncher.

                      I honestly dunno, i think Hatton would pull out a UD by wearing him down to the body and so slowing him down some.
