    Probably not going to be a crowd pleasing affair, but who wins?

    Forrest's size would probably be too much for Buddy. Buddy would have his moments but Forrest grinds out an ugly win.

    agreed. but i wouldn't rule out a KO victory for Forrest. he'd have quite a size advantage over McGirt and hits hard from mid-range.

    Agreed....though it's no easy task - McGirt was a very complete boxer (and a very different style to, say, Mosley) and would have a decided speed advantage - and he dealt well with some taller guys in his career.

    But Forrest's accuracy with the jab, height, reach and ability to tie up prove too much.

    Peace.

    Vernon "The Boa Constrictor" Forrest wins a decision in a dreadful (like most Forrest fights) match

    And has the worst finishing ability of any elite fighter in history. Forrest doesnt stop him.

    Forrest wins a close, technical, but ABSOLUTELY DREADFUL affair
