In 5 years Forbes has KO'd 2 people...I don't see how he could possibly stop Hatton....

Hows the crack smoking going for you?... Hatton is a contant presure, high output fighter... Relentless! Hatton is also a very strong fighter... Ask Tszyu... Castillo?

You rank Forbes higher then just these two of Ricky's many opponants?

Steve is slick and fast... Good movement. He has only 9 KOs to his credit in his entire career... Most of his career was spent fighting fair opposition... Nothing special and being employed as a sparing partner.

Please enlighten me on how this feather fisted, past his prime, B+ level former champion would put a chink in Ricky's armour...

I'd love to hear it;D

weel for one ricky cant handle fighting at 147 we saw that when luis collazo, that big puncher that he is, nearly ripped rickys head off and kicked his ass all over the ring....forbes has proven he can hang with bigger guys and take their best leather. fighting a short-stack like ricky would be no prob for forbes. i think steve is very underrated and a good boxer and if dlh couldnt bully him little ricky fatboy aint gonna bully him. i see forbes ooutboxing hima nd hurting ricky

Its funny, while watchin the Forbes vs. Oscar fight, I was thinkin to myself "Could Forbes beat my favorite fighter Ricardo Mayorga? If Mayorga couldn't KO him or knock him down a couple times, would Forbes outbox him?"

I don't know.

Maybe Forbes could beat some big names to be honest. Maybe Hatton, but I think he'd get outworked by Hatton and maybe hurt to the body.
Oscar did NOT take it easy on Forbes, but he didn't go all out either.

I agree that ODLH didn't go "all out" one thing he did very well in that fight was to pace himself, I don't think his defense was as good as HBO said it was, and he still relied on the shoeshining to win rounds.

I would certainly hope he would of beaten Forbes.

I thought Hatton on points but wouldnt it be just like the Colazzo fight. If Hatton has any more close 1s I dont think he will get any favours off the judges now. Magee wasnt known as a particularly hard hitter but he gave Hatton nightmares with his speed. I just think if Forbes had a pick of a superfight with a realistic chance he should go for Ricky . Zab Judah is a another big name I think Forbes might beat . Hes there for the taking IMO .

---

Hmm the slick boxers that Hatton has struggled with have all been bigger and stronger than him. They've also had better workrate than Forbes.

not sure how Forbes would measure up strength wise but i just don't see him being busy enough.

Then it got me thinking , how would have Hatton handled Steve . I know Steves has good speed and a great chin cuz he took alot from De La Hoya . I dont think Ricky would have lasted 12 with Oscar .

Forbes given the right superfight infront of him may be able to score a great win . As Ive said I think Cotto would have him , so would Floyd . Mosley would too and Oscar already has but Ricky Hatton is 1 high profile fighter Forbes might be able to beat

What do you think ? Consensus guys ?

---

Agreed he made Oscar look ordinary on Saturday i think Rick would have struggled;D

Sounds like Oscar is preparing himself for another sparring contest with Floyd. I just hope that atr 147 Floyd himself will be tempted to up the pace a little and force the fight.
