So now junior middleweight titlist Vernon Forrest wants out of a proposed Aug. 1 Showtime fight with interim beltholder Sergio Martinez. If Forrest does pull out -- the mandatory is way overdue, and he has been ducking Martinez worse than we're all ducking swine flu -- he ought to be stripped of the title. Time for Forrest to put up or shut up.
just read this on espn dF blog.
**** Forrest is being a coward about this.
It's insane that he is ducking Martinez so shamelessly and blatantly...
He's not even trying to make it seem like he wants the fight...
