Yes, I was. The money is definitely against Pavlik, who would probably gladly take the fight now because he needs a few confidence boosters now IMO, Forrest knows the cash cows at 147-154 aren't going to fight him so financially it's a good decision.
Health-wise, maybe not so much.
Forrest knows one way or the other he is dropping his title to Sergio Martinez, so like you said he is cashing in the biggest payday he can at this stage of his career.
Vernon Forrest is many things, an idiot is not one of them. He knows what's going to happen to him when he fights Pavlik, especially since he isn't a middleweight.
Looks like Forrest is cashing in his chips, even with the loss Pavlik is way too much for Forrest.

You're thinking on a competitive level, of course 154 is the better weight for him. But where is the money there? Paulie Ayala wasn't going to beat Morales or Barrera and he knew that, but when you're old and shot you need to get paid and then get the F--- outta Dodge. That's where Forrest is now.

I don't think Forrest should move up and if the fight does come off, Pavlik by KO.

Well normally I'd say Forrest is too old, but I said that about B-Hop and look what happened. Pavlik is not a good boxer at all. He just isn't. Anybody with a good chin and good boxing skills beats this kid from 160 up. I just think surely Forrest is too far past it to win, but in his prime he destroys Pavlik
Anyone read his mailbag? He is usually right about the inside business deals of fights.
Who wins this, at middleweight.
pavlik still dominates middleweight.
Its free, so even you can look at it. I know spending 5.99 is a bit much for somebody in your situation. "hahahaha"
oh come on that was a tired retort. You know nothing about my financial status so mere speculation on your part looks bad.
However.... what I do know about you is that you pay for "information", mind you the only item that you are paying for today is a Tarver interview which anyone can get, that most people can get for free on here.
but hey keep churning out grade school level retorts if you want I don't pay 6 bucks for stuff I can get for free
