I've been reading that this fight might be in the works for 2006. I think this would be a damn good scrap if these two sign the contract to fight. Any thoughts on this match up?
When I say Forrest is "past it"....I don't mean to say he's shot.
What I mean -It's been 4 years since he beat Mosley.....& he's had injuries, defeats, & a whole helluva lot of time out of the ring.
I doubt he's nearly as good as he was back in '02.
Don't forget that Forrest is still a pretty good technician himself...and that Quartey's chin may not hold up...plus I don't think Forrest is that much past it...
Vern still has a really big right hand and I think it would find a home just like it did against Sugar Shane...fun match just like Vargas v. Mosley is a fun match!
Though they're both past it....I'd be very interested in that matchup.
I'll go with Forrest, as long as he's worked the rust off.
I think Quartey is too straight up, too hittable, & has become fairly easy to hurt.
