Watch these two end up fighting to unify 154.:eeeek: Oh the horror! Forrest would beat Cory though, more convincingly than Garth Brooks did.
A now healthy Forrest will KTFO Spinks. Who the fuck are you trying to kid here? Friggin imbecile, . Stick to wannabe wigga dance solos and stay outta boxing altogether. ::
Forrest could easily unify at 154. Forrest has always been a world class boxer with decent power. The fact that 154 isnt very deep at the moment is a huge advantage for him. He would destroy spinks, most likely a UD but possibly by stoppage. A Forrest/DLH match could arise if Forrest gets another belt.
The great thing about 154 is that Floyd isn't there to fuck it up for everybody. After getting headbutted and generally railroaded at 170, Twinky might make it back down to 160, and with Stinks and Forrest, Ouma, Karmazin, Dzinduruk at 154, with Collazo and Shane just the other side, things could look up for the division.:clap: Some very interesting scraps to be made across that spectrum.
Absolutely. A forrest/Ouma fight sounds like a great fan friendly fight. Could be easy win for Forrest, but tons of good leather landing. Personally I don't see Shane wanting anything to do with Forrest, but Collazo might make a good show of it. Combine a Forrest fight with another WW championship and you have a decent card:bears:
Mayorga is still out there. I don't know how serious he is, or if he can make 154, or even if he can beat Fatso Vargas, but if he is/can....then fuck it all the better. Things just got real interesting:clap:
What does it matter? We are debating who would win, a guy who lost to Zab Judah or a guy who lost to Ricardo Mayorga twice. No matter who "wins", the result will always be.....a boring ass match with two overrated fighters.:shit:
wow forrest is quickly becoming quite over rated. he already wanted no part of spinks at welterweight why would he now? he's looking for a payday and a difficult southpaw isn't it for the leftyphobic georgian. beating up that argentinian was entertaining yet far from impressive. the guy was steadily walking into and thru forrests best shots and making him look good. what would spinks have done to baldomir? slapped the shit out of him in a shutout is my best guess..and not looked all swole up afterwards.
Whooa big guy. No one is overrating Forrest. OC and I were just saying with 154 not having many of the big guns, he can definitely be dominant there. He, nor Floyd, nor just about anyone wants to fight Spinks because he is a sleeping pill for a fighter. No one can look good against a guy who doesn't want to fight and a southpaw. Spinks should be froze out the same way Casa is. If all you do is stink out the joint, you don't deserve a slot on T.V.:nono: Vernon said he has 5 or 6 more good fights left in him. Hopefully he puts together some interesting matchups @ 154, possibly unifies, and sets up a decent "big" fight for himself.
But that's HOW Baldomir Fights...His "Gameplan" is to Steadily Walk N 2 & THRU his Opponents Best Shots... Vernon was AS "Impressive" as Floyd was vs Baldomir,if Not MORE Impressive... REED
Yup. Thats what I'm saying. Even though I like Floyd a HELLUVA lot more than I do Forrest, theres no doubting it.
How's was forrest win over Baldo more Impressive than Floyd's? Floyd's win was flawless. He made Baldo look like bum. Forrest was getting caught with some big punches by the argentinian. Forrest's face also looked banged up. If the argentinian could punch like mayorga, Forrest would have dropped. Even tho baldo cant punch, he still managed to hurt Forrest in an exchange. Floyd wipes his ass with Forrest.
:: :: And if Baldomir had no chin, he would still have gone 12 with Floyd and Forrest would have knocked him out in four rounds. Blah Blah. Floyd will never fight Forrest, because he knows Vernon is a big boxer puncher with considerable talent.
Vernon Beat him 11-1,Basically... Baldomir LOOKED like a BUM Last Night to REED...4 the 1st Time EVER,Vernon Forrest Actually Looked QUICK & had GOOD Footwork...That's a Testament to how ORDINARY he Made Baldomir Look... Vernon's Win was More RE-Watchable & Therefore MORE IMPRESSIVE than Floyd's Win Over Baldomir...He DOMINATED Baldomir & Actually OUTFOUGHT him...Sure,Vernon Took More Shots N the Process,but he DOMINATED Baldomir just as Thoroughly as Floyd did,N a More Fan-Friendly Fashion... REED
is forrest no longer tha same guy who barely edged an ancient ike quartey? I'm hearing he's 'healthy' now but to me he just opened up more because he had a guy with no power and who sucks in front of him. plus he knew he needed an offensive showing to get people to actuallly give a fuck about him. apparently it worked but I'm not fooled.
Ike is still a threat though. Even though he's waay past it, he still gave a good account of himself vs Winky. It just sucks that he fought Winky, instead of say someone like Ouma. Cause Ike would still beat Ouma. I really dont Spinks beating Forrest. Cory BARELY edged out Karmazin, and even you cant doubt that Karmazin couldnt carry Vernon's jock.
A fight with Ike/Ouma would be fuckin awesome :cheer: No one wants to see Spinks fight again outside of himself and direct family members:: Did Forrest take a few more lumps to the face than Floyd against Baldomir? Yes, but mainly because he wanted to make an entertaining fight. No one left for the exits in this fight, in fact the crowd came to their feet repeatedly throughout the fight. Could Forrrest have pitched the same shut out with a pop-a-shot and run strategy? Sure, but just as Larry Merchant said, Forrest is thinking of his future fights and marketability and making a fight out of this.:bears:
You over rate Forrest, yet here you are, swallowing Spinks' load like there's no tomorrow. Get this through your thick wannabe wigga dance solo moves head, Spinks sucks balls, mmm, perhaps that's why you like him so much, the sucking balls part, . Friggin' Spinks groupie, he ain't shit, just like you. ::
:nono: I doubt anyone who expresses that Karmazin was robbed, is a Spinks groupie. I had a tear running down my cheek, no one else was coming to the rescue of my obscure white hero.
well I'd pick ouma all day over quartey and karmazin all day over forrest. karmazin kicked the shit out of vernon in the gym not too long ago.
Freezing out Spinks and Casa? Sounds like a bandwagon that I'd gladly hop on, especially if you include Zahir Raheem, who seems to already be frozen out as well. Bullshit, Cory won that fight big just like he did against Mayorga. Karmazin didn't throw double digit punches until after rd 7. How the fuck could you have him in a close fight, because he damn sure didn't pitch a shoutout after 7? I agree, although I'd be slightly more doubtful of the Karmazin-Forrest matchup, I definitely think Ouma is an underrated fighter and most people don't understand what it is he brings to the table. He's relentless but because of his style he's going to more brain damaged than Gatti by the time he retires. Hell, you think you have a hard time understanding him talk now.
