Everybody knows how he helps out the Down Syndrome kids. Remember when he brought them all to the rematch against Mosley? That was cool as hell.
But ever since Mayorga took him out, he's been real disrespectful and unpleasant. Like he's got a chip on that bad shoulder of his. If he stays active, I don't see any reason he can't rule 154. I'd like to see him fight Spinks if he beats Baldomir.Comment

First of all, he leads such a charitiable life. Apparently he started this whole House thing to help out retarted people. He's gotten more then one of them to be able to live on their own.
And secondly, the whole build (if there has been any) over the FORREST-BALDOMIR fight, hes been nothing but class. Read what he said in response to HOPKINS's attempt to sell tickets and PPV's by slapping WRIGHT
"I understand that we池e athletes and entertainers, but I知 not knocking anyone in the head [at a press-conference] to get people to watch this fight," Forrest, 36, said in a cell-phone interview before the fight. "I知 not going to compromise my integrity by doing crazy stuff just to get on TV. I知 not going to do that. I知 not going to berate this guy, Baldomir, who is fighting for his family, just to get a buzz going. I知 not going to insult him. That痴 not how I operate."
I got that from a Article here on Boxingscene.
And anybody think this bout will be entertaining? I personally do. Two guys that are fighting for their professional careers. Seems like a bout that will entertain. Not a war, but asthetically pleasing
Vernon is and always has been a class act.
I worked with special needs adults over the course of one summer and it honestly was on the the most rewarding things I've ever done.
First of all, you got paid to hang out. But most importantly, I genuinely looked at the "clients" like friends. So what if one of the autistic guys in the house always wanted to sing "Butterfly Kisses" at Karoake night. He got my applause.Comment
