Hatton to fight in manchester against Forbes

[littlebif]

Perfect fight for Ricky.

Against a guy who is durable like Forbes I don't think so. Arnautis or Katsidis would be better for him.

I wonder if they had any talks with Paulie Spadafora?

I think iron chinned Forbes is all wrong for Hatton. I agree with Spadafora or even a Alphonso Gomez would be good. Why not call Gatti out of retirement and set up a fight with him? But Hatton at 147 seems alot better for him because he looks really drained at 140.

He did look drained but was that because Mayweather wasnt training him right?

He can get away with fighting fighters like Forbes at 147 but not the big boys at 147.

No, it's because his out of training lifestyle caught up to him. You live like he does and making the same weight for nearly 15 years just becomes too much. You can't consistently be cutting 40-60lbs of weight every few months and not expect it to catch up to you.

Plus he was never good enough to beat Pac anyway
