Who Wins: Mayweather vs. Forrest?

[Fox McCloud]

At both of the weight classes that they both won world titles in.

EDIT: I pick Mayweather at 147 due to speed, and Forrest at 154 because his size gives him enough of an advantage to outbox Mayweather.

EDIT 2: These are supposed to be the fighters on their best nights. Mayweather on his best night at 147 vs. Forrest on his best night at 147. Mayweather on his best night at 154 vs. Forrest on his best night at 154.

Nobody wins this crapfest. Everyone loses.

I picked Floyd at 147 and Forrest at 154.

Forrest cannot make 147 anymore and he would be weight drained and weak. Floyd would hit and run to a boring UD.

Forrest would win a UD at 154 and would have Floyd on the run trying to survive rather than trying to win the fight. Floyd will get knocked down in this fight.

A prime Forrest would UD Floyd at 147 and KO/TKO him at 154. Forrest in his prime would treat Mayweather like he treated Mosley.

Sadly, a past his prime Vernon Forrest is the best fighter at 154. The Light Middleweight Division is as weak as it's ever been and their is no money to be made there unless you're fighting Oscar De La Hoya.

Oops, I should have specified that they were prime for prime. Mayweather on his best night at 147 vs. Forrest on his best night at 147. Mayweather on his best night at 154 vs. Forrest on his best night at 154.

prime for prime mayweather likely loses at either weight, there is a reason why nobody wanted a piece of that guy, i just think forrest is too big and too strong, and unlike someone like margarito who is slow and wide, forrest was neither.

Prime Forrest all the way, he was a beast before he got ****d by Mayorga. Forrest is way too big for Mayweather and he is slick boxer with a good jab and pretty good power.

Assuming I get duped to watch a boring fight like this, I think Forrest takes the cake going with how he beat Mosley. He got a wingspan and great jab that would pose great problems for Floyd, and Floyd ain't like a Mayorga who could hurt the Viper. The Viper would be at his most venomous with a fighter like Floyd.

Vernon is not in his prime now. Hence the crapfest.

Come to think of it, even if Vernon was in his prime, it would still be a crapfest, knowing how Floyd turns everything nice into crap, like the Baldomir and DLH fights. Floyd has the Midas touch, only the things turn into ****.
