LMAO! Reading his interview on boxscene, you'd think they put James Toney's spirit into Vernon or something. He really has become a bitter shit talker. Either this is a front, and Forrest has become a "bad guy" in the hopes of becoming more popular, or this IS the real Forrest, and "nice guy" persona he used to have was just an act. Either way, he'll beat sorry ass Mora.
I just think that he's trying to draw attention to himself to try and promote his fights so that he land some of the big money fights. I'll Holla 5000
forrest in his last 3 bouts fought 3 OLD ass dudes in their late 30s. I'm going w/ the upset and picking mora to pull this one out.
probably, but forrest will lose soon or later and not by a guy who's all that good. i'm hoping mora will outspeed him and win a boring decision. doesnt matter anyhow, i won't be watching this one live since i'll be at Pavlik's fight in AC.
hey, it will at least be fun as while it lasts. forrest vs. mora will be a stinker and no one's holding their breath on quintana vs. williams II either.
cool. the only time i covered a fight in CT was winky/soliman. it's too far to drive from where i live and i'm definitely not flying to some place called uncasville. ::
Yeah I like this side of Vernon more! And btw I repeat..... Paul Williams comes across as a bit slow.
Forrest didn't need to talk when he was active and the real champ, but now that he's been so inactive and getting up there in years the number of future paydays aren't as great and I guess that's led him to the decision to go the standard route in hyping himself. I'm not really sure what big money fights are available for him at the moment. Would Mosley possibly entertain another fight if there isn't a Mayweather or Cotto fight possible? Winky Wright would seem a natural fight to make if The Wink can make 154 but I don't know if that's even being discussed at all. I just worry about what the kid's at Destiny's Child will think of all this profanity and trash talk.::
Honestly, I thought Forrest squared things with Mayorga in the rematch, but I guess scoreboard does technically make him his daddy. That's like having a birth certificate.
JIN Mosley would Fight Vernon Forrest B 4 Shane Mosley Would...Vernon Has Shane N his Back Pocket... N Fact, him & Jin Should Fight for Ownership of Shane's NUTSACK.... REED:hammert:
Vernon Forrest has always talked. He talked shyt even before the first Mosley fight. Anyone remember how he said in so many words, how he would screw Mosley's wife? Or when he was on a boxingtalk chat back in the day and was giving some rude answers to some of the questions his fans were asking? The guy has never given credit to his opposition, even after getting schooled by Quartey. Forrest has always been an ass, but for some reason people think he's a nice guy. But like Mosley said, Forrest does a good job fooling the media into thinking he's a nice guy. I guess he's just tired of pretending at this point in his career. He's not shittalking, he's just showing his real self.
