I am still shocked in how Vernon just let the first fight with Mora slip away. I think he is the better fighter, but hard to argue that when Mora won.
Do you think Vernon still has the tools to completely own this fight (be it skills to a decision or knockout)?
I think mora has a big heart and determination that most overlook, I think he is treated bad cuz of his lack of power, but he has some slippery ass moves and he is pretty quick. mora by ud.
When you just get outworked like Forrest did, it's tough to see where you can improve on that. He threw the right punches, he saw the right openings. Mora just kept throwing, and at this stage Forrest probably cant keep up.
mora is a mini calzaghe. annoying no power inaccurate swarming style who makes for shit fights. forrest do us all a favor and rid the world of mora. thank you.
Mora sucks. I'm sorry, but he just sucks. Forrest lost that fight more than Mora won it.
It looked like Vernon was shot, it really did. I've never seen a guy slip that much between fights. He just destroyed that Italian guy in December and looked the same as always
That Italian guy was an old piece of crap, just like most of Forrest's opponents, so of course he looked the same. It didn't surprise me at all that he lost. Mora may not look impressive, but he is damn hard to fight.
lol...the italian guy was a bum tell me how baldomir is also great when he allmost lost to a guy alfonso gomez ko'ed in 4......
mora>baldomir and piccirillo together
Baldomir had took a beating from Forrest and somewhat from Mayweather and had no motivation left when he almost lost to that journeyman.

I think that Mora is too busy for Forrest at this pointin his career. Although, Forrest is cagey and might be able to hurt Sergio at some point. Forrest is a solid finisher too even at this point!

Williams was in his prime while Forrest is well past his. I see this fight going the distance for sure no matter who wins. If Vernon wins it will be close.
Even if Vernon wins the rematch it won't be by ownage. He ain't got enough left for that. In the first fight Mora didn't do anything great he just outworked Vernon's dead ass. He was walkin around like a slug not throwin shit. I ain't even sure he'll win the 2nd fight period. He looked pretty bad.
I think the first fight between them gave some pretty clear indications that Vernon is shot. He looked very bad, extremely lathergic and he gassed very very quickly. To be honest I expect the second fight to head is a pretty similar direction, Vernon would really surprise me if he managed to come back and win that fight.
I think it's possible. I mean if Forrest was able to hurt Shane Mosley of all people, I think he's capable if he lands the right shot. It's unlikely though because Mora has too good of defense (?).
