Here's how much Vernon Forrest was quaking in his boots when Margarito challenged him:
"Margarito's people know how to get in touch with me. They know my promoter. They know Al Haymon. I'll beat the dogsh*t out of Margarito. He can get a Southern style ass-whooping that will send him right back to 147. I'll whoop his ass ten-times worse than Paul Williams did," Forrest said.
Williams called him out, and Tony answered back and fought him, when he was already in line to fight Cotto, for even more money and a bigger status. He still took the lesser fight out of pride and because he's got the bigger set of stones.
Hopefully Margarito can have 3 fights this year and one of them could be Forrest, after the Zab and Cotto fight.
:wtf: .........

Lol. Okay. The delay for 2 years of Williams being his madatory was for what reason then?
He waited until the 11th hour before the WBO stripped him to finally fight Williams.
Don't kid yourself.
"I see Vernon Forrest talking all this trash that nobody will fight him. Margarito will move up to 154-pounds and fight him. He's always wanted the green belt. Margarito will fight anyone," Diaz said.
Everybody calls out everybody in this game bro, do you remember all the people Kermit "The Frog" Cintron has called out in the span of 1 month? so give me a fucking break, why would that make Margarito an idiot? at least he's the kind of fighter than when he calls someone out he fucking fights them, unlike others. He's a big risk taker and doesn't back down from anyone, that's why he fought the much avoided Paul Williams, his fucking mandatory and putting his Cotto fight on the line, and now nobody wants to fight Williams.
I wish this fight does happen down the line, I wanna see Tony beat Judah and hopefully another win against Cotto in June-July, then he can move up and shut Vernon's big mouth, that mother fucker hasn't fought any worthy opponents in god knows how long.
Because Margarito has built his career following people around, reminding them that they are cowards for not fighting people who call them out, specifically him. Mayweather sucks because he didn't fight Margarito. Now Forrest has answered Margarito's challenge, and if Margarito can't fight him due to contractual obligations, then he is a fucking idiot for not knowing what kind of a business deal he has locked himself into.
Also, Margarito DID NOT fight Williams because he wanted to prove he was better, etc. etc. He did it so he could keep his B level belt.
Margarito's prime weight is 147. Forrest is a joke. He is calling everyone out and talking shit, yet he LOST to Quartey. He hasn't beaten a single noteworthy opponent since Mosley 5 years ago.
Then Margarito is a fucking idiot for calling Forrest out at 154. It was Tony who called him out first, Forrest just accepted and told him to shut the fuck up.

I know his prime weight and he belongs at WW, but just to shut Forrest up get a contract and fight at like 150, that's 3 pounds up for Marg and 4 pounds down for Forrest. Margarito said he would fight DLH and DLH could weight 154 and Marg would weight 147 and Margarito says he could beat him like that so why not just beat Forrest real quick and get the Cotto fight done!!!!
I'd like to see Margarito fight Fernado Vargas. I know Varags isn't really a top ranked contender now and hasn't been that good for a while but he might actually be able to compete with Margarito at 154, he's a better boxer and Margarito's style isn't one that would allow him to be great at the highest level against guys in higher weight classes. I dont know if that applies to Vargas but just in general. he's looking for a big name and a fight he can win, fight Vargas, fight somebody already. It would probably be a pretty good fight as well, Maybe Fernando to can pull together another good effort.
I wake up in cold sweats at the thought of the Tijuana Tornado

Tell Forrest to come to 147 and get a piece of Margarito. He will get knocked out, guaranteed!
I think Margarito has a good shot a winning at 154!!!! I say they meet at a catch weight and get this fight done!!!!
Margarito kills me feeling like he really won that Paul Williams fight based on the fact that Paul looked a little more worse for wear when it was done. If paul packed any sort of punch Margarito would have been out. He was getting peppered in some stretches.
I saw that fight a draw I felt Williams won the first half and Margartio not only won but DOMINATED the second half. I thought a rematch should have been signed in the ring right after the fight while they were still wearing there gloves, I mean that's how bad I wanted to see it again!!!! Margartio waited a little to long to get things started but once he did there was no looking back. That fight was very Tito Trinidad/DLH like were one fighter won the early part and the other won the later part. I like the possibility of a Margarito/Forrest fight I think it would be a good competitive fight, lets get them contracts signed!!!!
