Hatton by UD, it's all about workrate. Forbes is pretty slick has good eyes and good defense, but he's a tad trigger shy. Even if he blocked everything Hatton threw, the judges would have to go with Hatton for effective aggression because Forbes would be hardly throwing anything back.
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.
